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.

I hate to break it to you, but Americans will never receive/understand that message.
This. Generations of American exceptionalism has been baked into nearly every facet their being, culture, politics, and ways of life - piggybacking straight off a century of British imperial exceptionalism.
The US will need to fall and fall hard before they even begin to start thinking about changing their ways and even then it's not guaranteed.
Less money, no jobs is what they understand. Whether they want to hear it is another thing.
They won't even understand that.
Soy farmers are baffled as to why:
On that last point they're expressing the belief that China is somehow forcing Brazilian farmers to use cheaper … higher quality … ah … more capable and … ah … not locked-down by enshittification … tractors?
They genuinely do not get it, even when their farms are facing foreclosure! And they still vote for the ill-tempered old-age toddler who did it to them.
