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.

Visa will be tough.
Is MasterCard any better at all? Are there developments towards an alternative to be accepted across Europe?
Not at all. But is there any other real alternative to either visa or Mastercard?
Many European countries have their own national alternatives, but there doesn't seem to be much interoperability going on between countries.
I haven't touched Visa or Mastercard (or American Express or Discover or ...) in a quarter of a century.
In Canada: Interac Debit, you don't get any perks at all (but it is a lot cheaper for the merchant).
From the US: Amex, Discover, DCI, probably aren't muchbbetter.
