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.

What is this "golden dome" anyway? If he's deploying the military to cities in his own country, who is left for international defense?
It's Reagan's "Star Wars" system reimagined for Trump's toddler brain, named after Israel's "Iron Dome" but named for Trump's shitty taste in decor.
Picture a super-fragile shell of satellites and anti-missile missiles that will supposedly shoot down any ICBMs launched at the USA. Now picture someone releasing a bucket of ball bearings into the orbits these satellites would inhabit, rendering them useless and incapable. Compare the cost, too, of launching all those satellites vs. launching a few buckets of ball bearings.
It's one of the most hilariously inept pieces of garbage government policy ever created. At least they were smart enough to wind down talk on "Star Wars".
