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.

“Grab the TV remote, go to menu, go to controls, vertical controls, look for channel list and delete Fox News.”

I love political statements that are this specifically actionable

There's already little devices you can buy that just cycle through every IR code to turn off every TV in range. This should get coupled with a mic listening for Fox News commercial bumps before activating.

Is there a specific sound to those? It actually could be possible with an ESP chip, IR transmitter, and a decent pickup mic

I'd be shocked if fox doesn't use some sound effects at the start of shows as a pavlovian response to get their viewers salivating

If only South Park's "brown noise" actually existed...

Do you mean for public TVs like at the gym, and waiting rooms?
