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 can't even imagine what it must be like to be that frightened and insecure.
I imagine it’s quite frightening
And insecure
That can't be legal.
Not that it would matter under the current administration....
It is illegal and literally goes against the Civil Rights Act. I'd say someone should sue but I have a feeling that it won't hold up in today's SCOTUS, which may actually be their plan.
Make them say it out loud. I want to hear all the bigots sing their approval full throated so I know who they are.
SCOTUS is full of DEI hires like that Italian, that black guy, and the drunk.
It is illegal. But TBF, what non-racist/non-white person wants to fight to live an a town of institutionally racist, toothless, cousin fucking Hicks in Arkansas.
I'm just worried about any kids who are forced to grow up in a place like that. The few who wake up and manage to leave will probably have stories akin to those who ran from a cult.
That is, if they manage to leave. :(
We're way past "legal" mattering anymore.
TIL being gay gets your white card revoked
When my husband and I travel through certain towns in Northwest AR, one of us takes our matching wedding rings off, and we're brothers, in case the car breaks down - you want to plan your story ahead.
That is sad that you have to do that to feel safe.
Imagine Traveling While Black™, and wondering if it's safe to even stop for food or gas in whatever tiny little area you're in.
It's a lot harder to take off skin than it is a ring.
Now imagine you're the first ever black female MP in the UK, who points out just what you've stated, and you get kicked out of your party for it.
Oh, wait, silly me, you don't have to imagine. That happened.
This reminds me - repulsively - of what Blacks went through in the mid-20th century. I'm sorry for you.
(And as an aside, "Lovecraft Country" by Matt Ruff is a fantastic supernatural horror set during Jim Crow laws.)
I'm both sad that you have to think that way, but also impressed by the clever thinking; just a ring off and a quick line, and suddenly you are completely different entities in the minds of some other party. Kinda makes ya think how much we construct of someone's identity off of so little information.
Sounds like being gay in the 21st century is the new Italian or Irish.
These never stopped being a thing. They're called "Sundown" Towns; if you ain't welcome you'd better be gone by sundown.
David, a member of the community, told Sky News, “It wouldn’t be controversial for any other racial group to do the same thing.” Similarly, Niki, said people have a “large misunderstanding” about the community, claiming it’s “a loving movement.”
Exclusion is all about love. Didn't you know? I love you so much that I don't want you near me.
Csere also accepted that some would call him and the group racist saying, “I don’t really know or care if that term applies to me or not.”
The only people who don't care if they're called racist are racists. I care if I'm called racist. I know that much.
Let's ask him if he knows or if he cares if the term pedophile is applied to him and see how he reacts. Bet he won't care one bit!
anyone wanna tell this guy that they're not native to america?
Why should he care? He is a part of the "white-only" community, not a "native American" community.
The name of the group is "return to the land" they should therefore be hopping on the first flight back to Europe if they're planning on returning to their land. This land isn't theirs to return to.
"return to the land"
Isn't that just dying? When you die you return to the land.
Gross.
And if black folks had a town where they said "no whites", the Pedo Party would be sending the military in there...
Though I do like the idea of towns with zero tolerance of MAGAt morons/ aka republikkkans. Imagine how nice that'd be.
They wouldn't even have to say, "no whites."
Ever heard of Lake Lanier?
They turned a town of successful black farmers into a Lake.
The tantrum would be epic. Fox would be melting down 24 hours a day until that town was nuked out of existence.
Look, whoever gets filthy rich doing what I'm about to suggest doesn't even have to pay me. Maybe name a street Octopus Ink Lane and I'll know we have an understanding. That's enough for me.
If there can be a city that isn't going to allow nonwhites or queer folks, then there absofuckinglutely can be a city that doesn't allow magas or registered Republicans.
And all but 77 million of us would love nothing more than to live in just such a city.
There you go, just remember the little folks when you are rolling around in your swimming pool full of cash.
Their town exists for one reason: to oppress others. The residents of that town will quickly learn that once there are no minorities, they will become the minority.
I'd laugh if people refuse to do business with them. Zero trade for racistville
Lol, Arkansas. It'll implode within a year after someon in leadership finds out his sister's baby isnt his.
I imagine there’s more gay people than they think in their community..
Eyes too close together. Dumbo ears sticking out. Losing his hair. Behold, the master race!!!
Trump administration:
"We hear there's a Wonderful Community starting up in Arkansas, really great stuff, it should be a model for the rest of the country! We're denying all federal aid to any state that refuses to follow the lead of this Wonderful Community!"
a private membership association (PMA) for individuals and families with traditional views and European ancestry
tf why are we europeans catching strays again
I saw an interview with an ex white supremacist. He said most who join will leave, as it's mainly a big sausage fest.
It's nice all these racist homophobe men are all going to live together in the woods, free from women, having fun with their all male (but certainly not gay!) orgies.
Certainly cleans up society a bit :) I wish all nazis would start to live together, isolated from the rest of the world.
Seeing the title, "it's in Harrison, isn't it?" Reading the article, "it doesn't say where." Feeling dirty and clicking on the link to their site, "It says Ozarks... And North East Arkansas. Not quite Harrison."
Harrison is well known for being incredibly racist and the K³ capital of Arkansas.
