Its time for @dsaRandR to announce their secret Spartacus League Slate running a platform of overthrowing the US government during a May Day 2028 General Strike
Our slate of SPD candidates are running on a platform of peacefully confronting the rising tide of fascism in Germany beginning with a general strike in 1943

Stay tuned to hear more from our slate about their political vision for YDSA! 🌹🥖
