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.

Apparently the US Department of ~~Defense~~War thinks that they can order non-US citizens not resident in the USA to cease and desist from mailing things.

Uh…

Hilarity of the items involved aside, the gall of the US military postal service to give orders to civilians not under their command and not even of their nation is shocking.

So, they want her to stop sending sex toys to Baharain, but

The United States Postal Service and the DOD work together through the Military Postal Service Agency (MPSA), managed by the Army, to provide worldwide mail services (APO/FPO/DPO) for service members. These address formats don't reveal the country, just the person and military unit.

So she couldn't screen out those orders, even if she wanted to!

Lol tell your soldiers to stop ordering butt plugs

It's probably better that they're ordering them than improvising, but yes, it's very much a them problem rather than a her problem.

Due to country restrictions, they will unfortunately have to rely on IEDs (Improvised Excitement Devices)

[–] notabot@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

Better hope they don't sit down too hard, or they might get more of that excitement than they're ready for! I've heard "without a base, without a trace", but this is more "sit on a shell, welcome to hell".

Especially considering what soldiers have on hand to improvise!

They should just be a rifle attachment.

Yup. The system by design (to avoid deployments being decodable) doesn't reveal the actual destination ... but somehow she's supposed to know.
