In small orgs, this is easier than you probably expect. As soon as they use the word "socialism" (to mean Scandinavian social democracy) you're able to be the coolest and most knowledgeable socialist in the room cause you've read theory etc. The key is to be polite even if they're being annoyingly lib, but at that point you're golden.
Understanding class struggle tends to make excellent leaders and even liberals can see that if you take the opportunity to get results. At that point the goal is to educate your peers and build the org, eventually developing a relationship with our even cooler comrades over at PSL (or some such).
Remember these people aren't liberal establishment adherents or else they'd be Democrats. They're probably undereducated potential DemSocs (assuming they're privileged nerds who want to do non-duopoly electoral politics). If that's your style, go for it. If you're a direct action person or more outright revolutionary, obviously not the best fit.
If this group ever were to gain traction in CA I certainly HOPE to see a couple of Hexbearians in leadership.
