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.

“To show people how spoiled Countries have become with respect to the United States of America, and I have great respect for Japan, they won’t take our RICE, and yet they have a massive rice shortage,” Trump wrote, casually insulting the nation with which America has one of its largest trading relationships. “In other words, we’ll just be sending them a letter, and we love having them as a Trading Partner for many years to come.”

I wouldn't take it even in those circumstances.

I don't use American products. Ever. For any reason. I started de-Americanizing my supply chain in the '90s.
I don't know which strain they grow in the USA predominantly, but it's a singularly tasteless, texture-free one. When I lived in Canada, even before I started my de-Americanization, I bought rice from Thailand or India. Because they had actual flavour. Aroma. Texture.
