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.

often people vote to restrict their own freedoms.

Yeah, but usually in trade for something else. Gun laws, building code, mandatory driver licensing, having to pay for that soda pop; these are good restrictions we trade for safety, health, and reliable commerce.

I have no idea what Americans are getting out of the restrictions on freedom they've voted into effect recently.

Mostly it's supremacist validation fed by self-destructive cultural narrative. Which kind of supremacist depends on the individual.

You'd be surprised how many people happily volunteer to suffer so long as they know the people you've convinced them to hate are suffering more.
