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.

Absolutely agree with you on the fact that America's problems don't start nor end with Trump, and there's a lot beyond that, that needs to be done for the world to lend its trust back to it. I've said my piece on that within this comment.
I'm just being realistic and thinking ahead of time with what can temporarily suspend or fully call off my boycott. There's a long list of things I need to see before I would even consider incorporating the USA back into my vacation plans. There's a shorter list keeping me from stepping foot there whatsoever.
Even if absolutely nothing else changes, Seattle will be out in the streets celebrating like crazy. It's one of the few events I'm willing to break my boycott just for a night to share the joy, before I go back to boycotting again.
ETA: I went to the USA last at the start of 2025 before Trump took office so I could get one last look of a pre-Trump2 baseline... going for a day can give me a another snapshot before things go from bad to worse, if what you're predicting pans out, or better if Americans manage to clean house with a Reconstruction 2.
