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 challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, 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.

I'd rather us strengthen ourselves then continue being dependent on others when we don't have to.
To strengthen ourselves we need to make stronger ties with others. There's no use having a Canada-only payment system. We need a payment system that makes it easy for outsiders to buy Canadian (and vice versa).
The problem we have now is that we have only ONE country's providers, beholden to ONE country's governmental whims to do international transactions. We need something that is truly transnational instead of trusting a single country to be reasonable for all time.
Have a payment system that can interact with others but also be independent. What is the point a bout being tied to Europe. They are fine now but everyone thought that of America.
Perhaps the words "truly transnational" were unclear above.
