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.

Heinz ketchup is being avoided by Canadians. French's (a brand of McCormick's) reacted by advertising about how all its tomatoes were grown in Canada.
McCormick's (and thus by extension French's) is an American company.
So what they were advertising is that the labour they exploited was Canadian while the profits went to the USA. Straight up maple-washing.
I just stopped using 'ketchup' in 2013 during the whole heinz fuckoff thing. I only use homestyle ketchups now. they taste better and aren't just red sugar paste. actual flavor and can be found at farmer's markets and what not
I'm going to try this!
