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.

Agreed. I'm an American. I'm not going to sit here and pretend the country did things right in the world, but along with all the bad is the counter balance of the US dollar and world stabilization through world trade. It was economic diplomacy. Again, this is just a statement of observation and not an endorsement. We're dead and we just don't know it yet. Our world credibility is at an all time low, our military is depleted, our reserves are depleting, food scarcity is on the rise and our debt has balloon with the guardrails and safety nets that we spent 100 years developing being gutted and undermined.
I never thought I would see it in my lifetime. It's devastating. I don't say that asking for sympathy. I've seen enough of what happens on the world stage to understand that such things are deserved in one way or another.
I hope that in the history books, people will understand that no country is a monolith, and that our greatest failures on the whole was not malice but inaction as a response to our leaders' complete disregard for our wishes.
"Along with all the bad is the tool used to actually commit most of that bad."
Not quite the selling point you're making it out to be here.
I hope that in the history books the apathy and sloth of the USA's voting public will be held up like corpses were held up in gibbets as a warning to those who come afterwards.
