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 dont think people are discussing AI enough, and the extreme dependence on a two or three mega-companies for software AND for hardware?

I can tell you that I am not entirely happy about AI myself. But we cannot "un-invent" it? So we must deal with it, unfortunately.

We can uninvent it. At least on the scale it's currently being pushed. You just need regulations on the environmental impact. It completely undermines the technology.

The shift in the labor force will be different from previous tech revolutions, it will hit those with education, not manual laborers. That means that jobs that have traditionally been occupied by immigrants will be more sought after. This is a secondary reason for the anti-immigrant views now prevalent in the us. Then there is this wish they have to centralize their Ai, and when movies become autogenerated, to have us watch them in their centralized brainwashing cash cow. They are slashing budgets as if their life depended on it, and building huge solar powered data centers for this in Texas and other sunny places.
