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.

Everything is about money to these ghouls.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

everything is a grift when you have such a gigantic sea of rubes to milk.

[–] krebssteven@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Have you guys still not understood that americans (not all, duh) are completely caught up in performative gestures? Their prosperity gospel so many believe in basically commands them to donate in order to show their affiliation and piety.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 7 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

prosperity gospel

this shit is absolutely bonkers. it not only directly ignores christ's teachings, it's basically a mlm? holy shit

it's a grift from god rofls

I'm curious if it's as common in the younger generations as it appears in the old. Are young people attending church in the same numbers in the US? Perhaps there was less lead in the gasoline for them.

Are young people attending church in the same numbers in the US?

Religion has been on a steady decline by percentage of population in the US since the 70s. Christians declined from 91% in 1970 to 82% in 2000 to 74% in 2020, but the actual number of Christians overall increased from roughly 187 mil to 246 mil. However, non-religious rose from 5 to 20% in that same time frame (from 10.5 mil to 65 mil).

It is.

People want to belong. If you can pay money to belong.... that's an easy way to belong.

Does anyone not realize that Trent was taking about money in that song?

Yup. He literally says it. Dunno how anyone could miss it.

yeah, first verse :)

God money, I'll do anything for you

God money, just tell me what you want me to

God money, nail me up against the wall

God money, don't want everything, he wants it all

Anyone that watched her response video knows full well she's a grifter. Her acting was worse than Katie Britt in her SOTU response. One of the first things she said about Charlie is that if he were here today he'd say "Go Ducks". Because Oregon. Then proceeded to threaten the world with retribution as if Charlie Kirk dying was the same as opening the Ark of the Covenant. Wraps it up by asking for money. Rofl, it's so nakedly greedy it's pathetic. These people are so fake.

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

And how terrifying is it that the majority of folks think they are not fake? They think this is authentic.

[–] iridebikes@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

Oh, most terrifying. Absolutely. These people will believe anything.

[–] sploder@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I was so fucking disgusted when I watched her video. It was so cringe and obviously fucking fake and weird. Also why did she say anything at all, nobody needed to hear from her. And so quickly? All about the grift with these people. Felt icky and psychotic.

[–] iridebikes@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I may have taken a bullet to the neck and died. But there's one thing I want everyone to know, first and foremost:

GO DUCKS!!!!

Are MAGAts really that simple? Just bleat sports team nonsense and they're all in?

[–] tempest@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

It's been ten years... If you're still on the fence about whether the Trump devotees are paste eaters then I'm not sure what to tell you.

These people always existed but with the modern social media fire hose they have become very easy to control.

No one can think critically 100 percent of the time but a server never sleeps and it can bombard you with bullshit 24 / 7 / 365 no problem.

[–] iridebikes@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

No. I know they're morons. I'm just surprised that they're this gullible. Not believing things they don't understand is one thing.. buying these weak, thinly veiled performances from charlatans is another. MAGAts will never beat the charge that they're in a cult.

[–] TacoButtPlug@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Someone on tiktok said she hired Tyler to kill Charlie and while conspiracies are why we're here to begin with... why the hell not join in on the fun?

[–] Amuletta@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago

I heard that Trump had him killed because he was calling for the Epstein files to be released. 😉

[–] Technoworcester@feddit.uk 40 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] sefra1@lemmy.zip 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Now, that's one Kirk I like.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 hours ago

Charlie's middle name was James so it's very likely James T. Kirk will never exist.

[–] unphazed@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Can I donate my poo? That is the worth of TP USA.

[–] yarr@feddit.nl 21 points 1 day ago

There's never a bad time to grift. Husband assassinated? Grifting time! Husband not assassinated? Grifting time!

Don't forget to keep buying Trump coins. They are going to the moon! (for some reason)

[–] Amuletta@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

Well of course a grifter would marry another grifter. Maybe she can add to her millions by convincing other women to sell Mary Kay or Pampered Chef for her.

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

She's hot, so she's single?

spoilerJ/k, she's quite obviously disgustingly ugly and nasty on the inside.

Did Charlie Kirk not have life insurance? I feel like this is such a basic thing if you have a family. When my step kids were young I had a policy that was 5x my annual salary so I could be sure bills got paid. My step kids are grown and aren't hurting for $, so I downsized the policy to be big enough to bury me with plus enough left over have a swank family dinner out in to remember me fondly and/or talk trash about me.

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

Doesn't matter if he did. This is a opportunity for her to rake in millions from people who think giving her $20 is some sort of middle finger at 'the libs'.

[–] LoafedBurrito@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

I don't think life insurance covers "Acts of rebellion, insurrection, or terrorism." So even if he did, i'm sure they would find some way to deny coverage.

[–] Bongo_Stryker@lemmy.ca 32 points 1 day ago

Shouldn't she be taking care of her children and submitting to God's will instead of pretending to take on a leadership role? That's very inappropriate for a woman.

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 20 points 1 day ago

The grift is never ending.

[–] mitch@piefed.mitch.science 118 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Man, I saw that woman make a speech in honor of her husband and it sounded exactly like me giving a book report on a book I absolutely did not read because my brother rented Final Fantasy Tactics and I needed to finish it before it went back to Blockbuster.

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Sorry but I'm calling bs. No way you finished FFT in 3 days or a week.

[–] mitch@piefed.mitch.science 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Girl you never heard of GameShark?
