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.

I don't think he ever intended to win the lawsuits in the first place. Rather, to waste the defendant's resources by having them pay lawyers to defend themselves.

Basically, he's trying to be a bully.

i LOVE that in australia, its standard practice that the losing side of a lawsuit pays the winning sides legal fees

obvious SLAPP? you’ll probably find a really good law firm to defend you for no up front costs because it’ll be a slam dunk and the bastard that brought the suit probably has money to burn

That's the name of the TV Show. Spitting image is back from the dead ladies n gents.

For those that don't know it's a British satire show that got cancelled a while back that took the piss out of public figures and politicians, a bit like south park is doing now.

I couldn't tell if u named the show by coincidence or not so there we go.

The very first episode contains Putin recording Trump having phonesex with him for blackmail, Trump and Keir Starmer fucking and Prince Harry and Paddington Bear the Peruvian cocaine kingpin interviewing Elon Musk on their podcast

You understood my joke, congrats! They have been back and as better as ever!

I dont know if they have done one already but i cant wait for them to do the Friedrich Merz puppet and reveal that the blair fox was just a super villain in disguise (or how ever they'll handle his sudden 180°)

Edit: they need to redo "never met a nice south african" with elon Musk lol

[–] Duranie@leminal.space 5 points 3 weeks ago

They're back!

Seeing this made me look up to verify that they were the ones to do the puppets for Genesis' Land of Confusion back in the 80's. Watching the video again brings different feelings as an adult.

I can't tell if this is AI...

[–] Goldholz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It isnt. Its spitting image. A british satire show with puppets. Its actually hilarious

[–] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago

(I know it's a puppet but didn't know the show. I was more saying that the picture looks so much like Elon that I couldn't tell if it was really him or an AI picture.)

[–] Sludgehammer@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I mean we are in a Land of Confusion. (Yes, I'm that old)

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 weeks ago

I never would have guessed from your username /a

Also, nice username. I too am old.

[–] Nosavingthrow@lemmy.world 16 points 3 weeks ago

No, they aren't. Media Matters is nearly defunct to the point of almost non-existence.

[–] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works 14 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Suing is rich people's right to bully and intimidate.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

And remember, if they lose their lawsuit against you, they have to pay your legal fees.

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I'll only believe Musk is failing, when i see him running crying & naked around the streets.

[–] Blum0108@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago

That's just the ketamine

Is this not obvious to everyone by now?

Do people really have their heads so far up their own asses that they can't see that he's a complete piece of shit, authoritarian Nazi wannabe dickhead?

Jesus.

[–] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

His everything is failing.

[–] BussyGyatt@feddit.org 1 points 3 weeks ago
