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?

Even if AI is an enabling technology that solves many problems, it is also a potentially a horrific totalitarian tool. And the consumers must be protected. By this I mean, they must not be allowed to centralize too much and regional and local services established. And the consumers must have an offline PC, in which some services work detached from this thing. They can still use the services on some other PC. The purpose is to protect spaces for being human, centralization that i heard bezos wish for is the absolute worst scenario.
