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.

Join a peaceful protest demanding justice for Good and the 9 others shot by ICE and demanding to abolish ICE this weekend (10 Jan and 11, 2026) run by Indivisible and 50501. There are a few in or near Canada. You will probably find people who care and aware of the problem, over there.
Mmmmm I am way past the point of protesting. It's preparing now. Making sure family is safe, will I fight or will I run with them, etc.
Not a sure thing all of it is needed, but things are bad enough you'd have to be stupid not to be sorting out options for invasion.
Sometimes I feel paranoid, but I think it’s just prudent now to prepare for a potential invasion.
I’m at the very least liberating myself of American tech as much as I can.
Honestly fuck everyone who thinks people are paranoid. As far as I'm concerned society is full of hopelessly ignorant, rose-colored glasses wearing robots.
Nobody paid attention in history class, and if they did, yeah things are bad but the towel warmer in the bathroom isn't working and that's....kind of a priority.
Fuck em. Grab popcorn and watch how many people you thought were smart FREAK out when it all comes for them.
Yes.
I scared the shit out of my family be explaining how easy it would be for a us invasion.
Imagine they just turn off MS office and azure to the government and military. It’s embarrassing how easily they could do that with one or two malicious software updates that just need remote activation or execute on a specific date.
Now imagine Apple and Google disable your phone by simply signing you out of iCloud and Google.
Now you have a massive country and zero communication, the government can’t function, and they can do whatever the fuck they want.
we need to stop this before it happens, all government systems, unless fully air gapped, need to run Linux.
It keeps me up at night man.
Stay safe, don't bother. Pizza still tastes good. Offline video games are still fun. Plenty of good books out there.
Don't try to change people's minds anymore, it's not good for mental health.
Just enjoy what we have left, whatever that is. And if it turns out we're just paranoid, no harm done.
