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.

MABA Make America Bankrupt Again. It's what the GOP voted for.
With the 6 time bankrupt "leader" at the helm, that's surely a guarantee.

Why do people persist in framing this as a "trade war"?
It isn't.
This is a cultural shift toward despising the USA and everything it stands for. Trade wars are perpetuated by government in an effort to sway foreign policy. This is grass-roots in an effort to tell USAnals to fuck off.
