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.

Pretty sure it's less that they have the IP for Star Wars and more that they have the IP for a bunch of extremely popular children's movies and so on. Also stuff like Disneyland.
It’s not really a detail that makes a huge difference in the point I’m making
Think it does make a difference since the Lucasfilm acquisition was only like a decade ago, and frankly Disney's handling of Star Wars has been controversial at best. It's just a bad example.
It's IMO pretty obvious why people give Disney a pass. They've spent a great amount of effort cultivating a certain image and basically feeding it to kids growing up through many different sources (movies, TV shows, theme parks, random shit like balloons in parades, etc.).
I disagree that it really makes a difference but if you feel the need to list more examples then have at it
