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.

Join 50501.chat to fight back!

As a Leftist, I could never consider Canada as a viable place to live unless they repealed their repressive laws on firearms. UNDER NO PRETEXT.

There is no such thing as a "Left" in the USA. People like you are the poster children for proving this.

[–] F_State@midwest.social 1 points 7 hours ago

There are all kinds of Leftists in the US. Anarchists, Communists, Socialists, and depending on where you draw the line social democrats and democratic socialists. We're heavily outnumbered by liberals/democrats and we exist outside the Overton window but we're here.

Wtf are you talking about? I'm Canadian and I own several rifles and shotguns.

I just bought a 6.5 creedmoor rifle and I own an AR-15.

Keep your bullshit fox news propoganda to yourself.

I assume you are referring to how we dont allow mentally ill people such as yourself from owning firearms. Good. This is why we don't have school shootings

I'm on the far left, i don't watch fox news. And according to this Canadian source, you own a prohibited weapon https://www.publicsafety.gc.ca/cnt/cntrng-crm/frrms/paf-afa-en.aspx

https://www.publicsafety.gc.ca/cnt/cntrng-crm/frrms/index-en.aspx

"On May 1, 2020 the Government of Canada prohibited over 1,500 models of assault-style firearms and certain components of some prohibited firearms (the upper receivers of M16, AR-10, AR-15, and M4 patterns of firearms). "

Yes. A far left gun nut. Yes. That's a real thing.

“Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary” ― Karl Marx

It's a restricted weapon not prohibited. Mine is grandfathered in.

Good thing people like you are never allowed to move here.

Keep chugging that americant propoganda and watching those mass shootings everyday.

[–] F_State@midwest.social 1 points 1 day ago

The American propaganda I got off the Canadian website? Or by American are you referring to when I quoted Karl Marx?

[–] kossa@feddit.org 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

As European leftist: weirdest exchange to read 😅

But your firearms sure help you tremendously rn, while tyrants take over your country. All those upright citizens everywhere who defend liberal democracy with their muskets.

[–] ZDL@lazysoci.al 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I keep wondering where the second amenders are, fighting open tyranny.

Crickets.

Most Conservatives would rather join Right Wing Death Squads. Their idea of Tyranny is letting single mothers have food stamps.
