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.

America won in all those wars. However those wars show that winning the war isnt the end and if you want things to hold you need significant follow up and american support is fickle.
Say what now? Please explain how the US won any of those wars? Last I checked, North Korea is still a thing; Saigon was renamed Ho Chi Minh and the Taliban rule Afghanistan. But ya it was a "support" problem. They never won those wars because no one wants US imperialism.
Vietnam the US completed their military goals and forced a ceasefire then years after US support was withdrawn due to admin switch north Vietnman attacked again.
North Korea had taken most of Korea and was pushed back by the US and with help from the US south Korea was able to stablize and get a ceasefire.
Afghanistan Taliban was removed from power and lost territorial control. Failed due to US not having built up a strong enough base of support and stablity.
You can argue they shouldnt have been and never had enough public support. But war wise they did well in all 3 of those wars and objectively "won" the war. Vietnam was especially hard given the terrain and tactics.
