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.

DC voted 90%+ for Harris. There’s almost no chance he voted for this.
Sorry, it's been ten years of this. I'm kinda done with giving nuance to Americans.
Harsh? Maybe, but when even the Democrats are caving in to Trump's demands for fuck all reason, I'm just done caring about what the thoughts of people down South are.
Literally been told by "left-wing" Americans that my thoughts and opinions on their politics don't matter even with the bullshit going on, and all I can think of is how I as someone over the border wouldn't have to fucking care if they treated this guy like the fucking threat they supposedly see him as rather than do nothing more than tell people to vote as if that's some big fucking accomplishment.
If getting out to vote is supposedly all that people could have done against this and nothing else (their words and actions, not mine), then yeah, ya get what ya vote for.
Exactly the kind of sentiment the people in power making these batshit decisions want. They want people making vapid generalizations, they want people reacting instead of thinking. Acting out against each other instead of working together.
You're sick of this shit? We have to fucking live it. You want to give up? Fine. But don't blame others when things don't get better, while you sit on your high horse and the world burns around you. Cause it sure as fuck isn't limited to the US, it's just easier to ignore everything but because the US when they're falling so far from where most people there thought they were.
Oh get over yourself. You people swear you’re fighting the good fight by thinking. That’s the whole problem. All anyone does is think, no action. Then it’s shocked pikachu face.
To people all over the world, ignore this type of bleating. This is the same rhetoric the dems use and thanks to them we’re now the dumb reich.
