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.

These never stopped being a thing. They're called "Sundown" Towns; if you ain't welcome you'd better be gone by sundown.
Wait, for real? That's a thing? What happens at sundown?
Take a wild guess what a town full of racists would do to a non-white person under cover of darkness. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynching
like racist vampires.
They beat you and drive you out of town, if not just kill you. It was a real thing, probably still is in some places. I imagine they are making a come back since Trump
That's not what it means in this case. Sundown towns get their name from their origin of not allowing black people to be there at night (after sundown)
