Boycott US

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to get rid of citizen's united and implement independent district drawing and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

Don't you love having to rent a car to get anywhere in the US? Yeah, me.neither. Best part of tourism in EU for me is certainly the trains, can just hop in and enjoy the view, no worries about parking, going over the speed limit or missing an exit
I visited for a work meeting. The hotel, grocery store and shopping plaza were on the 4 corners of an intersection, but they had no sidewalks to get from one to the other. The one road was highway, and the cross road had water runoff ditches immediately after the edge of road. Like who plans this garbage. It forces you to go find your car to drive across the street from hotel to restaurant.
Tbh for me I will miss not being able to ride the Amtrak, the newly electrified Caltrain, and all those trains in NY, NJ, MA and PA...
