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.

mind explaining how?

sigh i know it sounds like ragebait, but if anybody takes the time to actually think about it, would you point out where exactly the logical fallacy lies? you can't convince people by downvoting alone, at least not me. if you think you're right, i guess there's a proper argument to be formulated. i'd like to hear it.

yeah but i feel like that's not the reason

if a group of women demanded a private space for themselves in a public area, i guess people would be ok with that. why so? why wouldn't the same be accepted if it was instead a group of white people asking that no person of color intrude? isn't both discrimination?

or have we merely adopted a habit of granting women special rights, as a habit of culture? if so, it should be explicitely mentioned somewhere, otherwise our speech doesn't reflect our thoughts.

The more used to privilege you become, the more that equality looks like discrimination.

Get over yourself.
