Comrades, if you are not organized offline, now is the time. If there is no organization in your area, start one or look into involvement with organizations that are active elsewhere. If you have terrible social anxiety (like me), just show up and be quiet for a while if you need to. If you feel like you haven't learned enough yet, there's no better way to learn than with comrades in real life. If you don't like any of the options of organizations available to join, pick the best option or start your own. If you think you won't be accepted for whatever reason, talk to your local organization about your fears because organizing in some capacity is for every type of person in every place.
Anyone who tells you organizing isn't worth it, isn't necessary, or won't make a difference is counteracting the movement regardless of whatever good intentions they may have. I get that the situation looks bleak, but that's all the more reason to prepare right now and be in your community right now.

Offline Organization and Study Are Irreplaceable
