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.

Lol, Arkansas. It'll implode within a year after someon in leadership finds out his sister's baby isnt his.
So, when someone gets divorced in Arkansas, are they still siblings?
Only if they were born in Mississippi or Louisiana.
They're so pissed they couldn't herd other people they had to resort to herding themselves.
I saw an interview with an ex white supremacist. He said most who join will leave, as it's mainly a big sausage fest.
It's nice all these racist homophobe men are all going to live together in the woods, free from women, having fun with their all male (but certainly not gay!) orgies.
Certainly cleans up society a bit :) I wish all nazis would start to live together, isolated from the rest of the world.
TIL being gay gets your white card revoked
When my husband and I travel through certain towns in Northwest AR, one of us takes our matching wedding rings off, and we're brothers, in case the car breaks down - you want to plan your story ahead.
That is sad that you have to do that to feel safe.
Imagine Traveling While Black™, and wondering if it's safe to even stop for food or gas in whatever tiny little area you're in.
It's a lot harder to take off skin than it is a ring.
Now imagine you're the first ever black female MP in the UK, who points out just what you've stated, and you get kicked out of your party for it.
Oh, wait, silly me, you don't have to imagine. That happened.
This reminds me - repulsively - of what Blacks went through in the mid-20th century. I'm sorry for you.
(And as an aside, "Lovecraft Country" by Matt Ruff is a fantastic supernatural horror set during Jim Crow laws.)
Sounds like being gay in the 21st century is the new Italian or Irish.

tf why are we europeans catching strays again
Probably that whole colonialism thing
I can't even imagine what it must be like to be that frightened and insecure.
that's one thing I never truly understood about grievance culture — they are the one group of people who can ignore all this and just piss away the days doing whatever they want, whenever they want to, and instead, they spend their lives destroying their bodies with cortisol.
if I had the confidence of a mediocre white man, I'd be famous.
My assumption is simply that they're such complete losers - such an awful combination of ignorant, angry and stupid - that being white and heterosexual are literally the only things they have going for them - that they have nothing of any actual value to offer to anyone.
And that's why they rage against "DEI" and "woke" and "race theory" and so on - because if they were to lose the built-in cachet that comes from being white and heterosexual, they'd have nothing at all.
Because yes - if they had anything at all of any value to offer anyone, they could focus on that instead, and pursue it with the built-in advantages of being white and heterosexual. That they don't pretty strongly indicates that they can't.
my personal experience agrees. I think this is what is powering Qanon as well — a deep, wrestling anxiety over the thought that they might have enabled really terrible things happening around them.
Like, for God's sake, this entire thing started with John Podesta supposedly emailing someone about a "cheese pizza," which is a term that is probably, unfortunately, deeply familiar to anyone who had precocious levels of Internet access in the early 2000s.
Basically, it is not a code word that a 70 year old man would use in 2014, in public email, on the campaign trail. In fact, he was ordering, literally, a fucking pizza for his staff.
And meanwhile, their hero president is a rapist who was best friends with and a regular guest of the most high profile child sex abuser and procurer in American history.
I would think that much cognitive dissonance would actually be painful.
Maybe it is, and that helps explain their constant misdirected seething rage.
That can't be legal.
Not that it would matter under the current administration....
It is illegal and literally goes against the Civil Rights Act. I'd say someone should sue but I have a feeling that it won't hold up in today's SCOTUS, which may actually be their plan.
The dude on the picture looks looks inbred 😂
That's kinda sad, they legit look mentally retarded. Bet there's legitimate correlation between racism and mental disorder.
banjos intensifying
The west African instrument? That's getting confiscated
David, a member of the community, told Sky News, “It wouldn’t be controversial for any other racial group to do the same thing.” Similarly, Niki, said people have a “large misunderstanding” about the community, claiming it’s “a loving movement.”
Exclusion is all about love. Didn't you know? I love you so much that I don't want you near me.
Csere also accepted that some would call him and the group racist saying, “I don’t really know or care if that term applies to me or not.”
The only people who don't care if they're called racist are racists. I care if I'm called racist. I know that much.
Let's ask him if he knows or if he cares if the term pedophile is applied to him and see how he reacts. Bet he won't care one bit!
Gross.
And if black folks had a town where they said "no whites", the Pedo Party would be sending the military in there...
Though I do like the idea of towns with zero tolerance of MAGAt morons/ aka republikkkans. Imagine how nice that'd be.
They'd fucking fire bomb it. Again.
These never stopped being a thing. They're called "Sundown" Towns; if you ain't welcome you'd better be gone by sundown.
Look, whoever gets filthy rich doing what I'm about to suggest doesn't even have to pay me. Maybe name a street Octopus Ink Lane and I'll know we have an understanding. That's enough for me.
If there can be a city that isn't going to allow nonwhites or queer folks, then there absofuckinglutely can be a city that doesn't allow magas or registered Republicans.
And all but 77 million of us would love nothing more than to live in just such a city.
There you go, just remember the little folks when you are rolling around in your swimming pool full of cash.
I'd laugh if people refuse to do business with them. Zero trade for racistville
Fucking insane. I wish I could say "Of course it's Arkansas", but I'd suspect this of almost any rural area anymore.
