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.

FOX News ruined the country.
Americans ruined the country.

Hey remember Murdoch's Australian. That hillbilly Island deserves a little bit of the blame.
You can connect those dots back a little further, if you try.
"Okay smart guy, so Nixon?"
Yes, but...
"Ah, you're about to mention the southern strategy."
Which happened because?
"Alright, but it's pretty tenuous to attribute the modern rise of fascism to failed reconstruction!"
I wasn't. I was going to attribute it to the existence of slavery in America. The seeds of this destruction were already planted at the beginning.
(Sorry for this writing style, it started as a joke and I couldn't make it properly funny while also making my point.)
Add in the north being settled by a mix of Christian fundamentalists and tax cheats, and you get whatever we’re calling this now.
The consequences of Fox News have been known for decades, still, nothing changes.
