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.

On issues like evolution, vaccine requirements, and GMO foods, American public opinion has long been out of step with the scientific community.

It's the country that still uses imperial measurements and thinks evolution and abortion are controversial and should be debated until the end of time.

Remember if you don't want to be like the "United" Dumpsterfires Of America than don't vote for conservative hateful idiots like Polievre and don't pretend like Carney is a solution rather than a bandaid!

People who are struggling need a vision, otherwise hate and blind calls for austerity begin to overpower visions of anything else.

Some of Carney's speeches have felt historic, but I think it has to do with having a good speech writer who is willing to call it how it is rather than Carney actually really being willing to play a confident foil to Trump and fascism. This is a dangerous liability as it is a losing strategy.

We need proportional representation badly. Canada would be stronger with more broad public support and political parties.
