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.

"The department has long had a “dissent channel” in which diplomats could send a memo, usually classified, to the secretary of State, voicing disagreements with policy decisions. It’s unclear how active that channel is now, but several diplomats said they would not feel comfortable using it, even though people who do so are supposed to be legally protected from reprisal."

This administration is undermining the law on so many levels. It's scary because the law only has as much power as people have faith in it.
