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.

I've been working on some technical things the past month or so, and inevitably Reddit posts have shown up in my search results from time to time. One thing leads to another and I end up checking out the front pages (ex: popular and all) from time to time.
What I noticed now compared to when I "left" is that there are way more India-centric subs making it into the top results. Dehli, India Teens, Bollywood memes, and so on. So, I'm guessing that region is the next big push for growth.
Yes I have as well been trying to get my technical thingy on and have come across Reddit posts as well. I however refuse to look at the “front page,” because I know it will get me into reading something which will turn into doom scrolling which will lead me into signing back on to see what is up locally.
I am a recovering addict of some rather powerful pain meds so I no longer take anything synthetically or genetically related to that drug let it be over the counter or script based, which makes things a little difficult for me when talking to a doctor about pain management but that is besides the point.
What I did for my Reddit addiction was wean myself off; First I removed myself from all but the local groups but I told the groups why I was leaving and where I was going, some of the US people are just idiots in the more active international groups not realizing how screwed they really are. Then after a while I logged off and uninstalled the app from my phone and iPad and Vivaldi (the web browser I am currently using). I still have the account just incase something happens and I need the power given to me by the amount of time I have been a member but that thing will have to be something major, even more major then Canadian airports being simultaneously being shut down do to bomb threats.
Your AI image generator is also USA based. Fuck AI
I don't think they have AI bots you can physically fuck yet, but gooners have been enjoying image/video/text generated by AI such as "Flux", "Wan" and "Mistral" a lot.
The three I mentioned are based in Germany, China and France respectively. No USA :)
Head over to !localllama@sh.itjust.works if you need more help with AI gooning.
I assume when I say fuck the police, you also assume I want to participate in coitus with someone from the armed forces?
Yes🤤
Just kidding. Of course not. Armed forces mean militarized forces. Police should not be militarized. What's this? America?
You made the right decision. Yes the community is small, but it will grow, and besides small can be beautiful in its own way.
Each step we take feels good.
Please consider giving !sask@lemmy.ca some love!
Already there! I can watch my dog run away for about 3 days before I need to go looking for it!
Shout out to a SK homie!

Welcome to the Canadian Fediverse!~🥳🌻
Been here for a while but thank you.
This is the nudge I needed to delete my reddit account and uninstall the app. Thanks!
Deleting the app is something I should do to, not sure I am ready to delete my account. I have left every group that is not Canadian though.
Don't delete your account yet! I still use mine to promote the fediverse to folks who are still on Reddit. Such efforts are often organized in !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com
I am done trying to push people over here, I would get told to suck an egg because the people are still on Reddit.
I've been meaning to get off Reddit but kept putting it off. I got banned so they made it easier for me lol
Well, I just am coming off a 3-day ban for asking a "spicy question" - and at this point after 15-years, I am going to close my account.
Do you not just love those bans? The first time I was banned I should have realized that it was just a ploy to make me jones to use it. I should have started looking for something better then and there and welcomed people onto Lemmy when the migration started.
My last ban was something to do with talking about Trans healthcare in Canada, something I know a thing or two about, and some Cis person getting mad that I was discussing it.
Yes - Reddit addiction is real - I was more "miffed" about missing my daily usage streak than the ban originally... but, have decided that after 15-years, am going to close that account (after using some tool to delete all posts/comments) and open a couple different, "slightly more" anonymous ones where I wouldn't care if I got banned.
