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.

Has their military ever won a war beside the one where they dropped some nukes?

Arguably, the Soviets one that one as well.

The Revolutionary war. And the Civil war.

I don't think it counts when the outcome of the war is that the winner becomes the new US. It's always going to be a US victory regardless of which side wins.

They renamed one of their departments to the Department of War.

No they didn't. Only Congress can rename the Department of Defense. Trump's scrawled "orders" are meaningless.

It matters because it was all over the news and people now think that is what it’s called, not to mention the official government is saying that’s what it’s called.

Written papers are worth what people do with it 🤷

No reason for a Department of Defense if no one will attack us,but War, well you can do that proactively. Makes the Department more justifiable.
