Boycott US

2223 readers

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.

A global boycott may be the only nonviolent way to curb US aggression and repression.

As an American I wish I could get in on such a boycott too.

Check out the goods unite us app and buy from companies that do not contribute to either party.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 5 points 1 day ago

I'll check it out, thanks. I hope its ads aren't ironically inappropriate.

encourage people from reddit to lemmy.

No thank you. That's like emigration from a shit hole then wondering how we can make this new land another shit hole.

Americans can boycott too.

Work less.
Spend less.
Barter and trade.
Buy used.
Cancel subscriptions.
Buy from foreign companies when possible
Grow your own food.
Make gifts.

Every dollar you don't make or spend is taxes that Ice and Israel don't get.

In the US that makes you a terrorist and you get fired then kidnapped, tortured, and shipped to El Salvador.

I drew my secret Santa person this for their Christmas present.

Beautiful! I love that.

I also made a gift for my secret Santa, but I don't have a picture. I made a kiwi bird out of yarn. (The person I got was someone who's moving from the US to New Zealand. Lucky dude.)

Like way better than almost any gift you could buy. Nice

[–] Chivera@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Buy used I think it's the easiest for everyone.

As someone who was born and raised in the states for 20+ years, I fully endorse this. I hate it here so much, I want to leave.

Off topic, but it appears that your account is flagged as a bot account. You can change this in your account settings 👍

It’s been time for quite a while now. Nobody should be buying U.S. made cars. Grocery shopping Canada or literally from anywhere else other than the states. Travel literally anywhere other than the states.

[–] leavenotrace@feddit.nu 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Even Americans shouldn't buy American cars as they're all terrible quality. Canadians also need to know that US food safety regulatory agencies were gutted last year.

There's shit in the meat.

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 83 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You guys aren't boycotting them already?

[–] Lanske@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago

Been boycotting the US and Israel for ages now

[–] ChessThoughts@piefed.ca 19 points 2 days ago

100% agree.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

It’s way past time

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

Should have started decades ago
