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.

Honestly? Listen to some of the community building focused “It Could Happen Here” podcast episodes. You know how during the great depression, a lot of people were extremely good at preserving food when there were good harvests and at taking care of each other? It’s invaluable to set up those sorts of community support networks now. People like to fetishize stockpiling ammo, but you can’t eat bullets, and a life of banditry is a miserable existence always a coin flip away from death.
This is partially why I've started getting into the hobby of vegetable gardening and forms of food preservation like fermenting, canning and drying in the wake of the pandemic. Not only does it benefit me now by reducing my grocery bill and encouraging me to eat healthier more regularly, but it's also developing skills that could become critical to survival should things get really bad.
I hate canning…. but yea, I guess that’s a new hobby of mine these days.
