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.

Well, yeah, you don't invite the guy who wants to beat you up over to play.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

They invited Hegseth. Very disappointing.

Denmark has ordered 37 F-35 Lightning II fighters from USA and the only ones that are allowed to service the planes are Lockheed Martin employees. If shit hit the fan that servicing stops real quick. Reeeally clever move. Should've bought Gripen from Sweden instead..

I don’t think Denmark would care who is “allowed” to service the planes in case of a war.

Of course they wouldn’t have as much technical knowledge or tools

But the replacement parts can be a real problem.

They can refuse the software expertise.

The danish government is making some questionable moves recently.

[–] RedSnt@feddit.dk 3 points 3 weeks ago

Aye on more than one front. Chat control is also something that "socialdemokratiet" is pushing hard for.
Tbh, not a lot could've predicted the government that we have today, because a government "across the middle" hasn't existed since 1978 which was a total failure, but today we have "Venstre" (means "left", but they're actually right on the political scale), the social democrats and a center populist part called "the moderates".
In many ways it's mirroring UK what with labour becoming so much more right wing than previous versions.

And nothing of value was lost.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 5 points 3 weeks ago

Something of value was gained.

Why would they trust the now fascist states? Might as well trust North Korea at that point.
