That is a sick post, well done

Friendly nitpick, English is also not my first language:

they are not an American CEO only aiming at extract profit from you.

I think it's "aiming to extract profits from you." Unless I am completely misremembering the proper grammar myself.

But overall, this is a great write-up! You really are doing amazing work here, thank you for that. I deleted my reddit account a while back, but here's hoping people will allow this to stay up and engage with your points in good faith.

Thank you, I'm not a native English speaker either, I just edited!

As a native English speaker, both are fine (our language is totally incomprehensible.)

Good to see r/BuyfromEU gaining a modicum of traction even if it is on reddit.

You got to start somewhere, and all successful big movements initially start with what seems like an almost comical idea.

No disrespect to the sane Americans (and there are many of them).

Sane American here. Totally support this!

Wow, there's even a subreddit https://old.reddit.com/r/BoycottUnitedStates/ . Only has 12k readers though. Would be cool if they migrated to Lemmy.
