[...] that few people have even noticed that their government appears to already be initiating a system of off-shore, industrialized slavery.

... as opposed to the system of on-shore, industrialized slavery already in place for decades? AKA the prison-industrial complex? That legally and officially still is slavery, after all.

Posted before I saw you'd made the point already. 🤘🏼

It bears repeating though. Far too many people think that slavery ended a long time ago.

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.
