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.

The orange juice coming from the US has been unpalatable for the last decade or so. They've all turned into generic standard artificially recomposed but still marketed as 100% orange juice. They used to taste different depending on the seasons and now they're all the same across the board. Instead, I just eat fruits and water. Plus, orange juice is high in sugar - so it's not as healthy as people think.
Actually never realized it could taste different in different seasons since I mostly just used concentrate if it bothered with OJ. I'd say I should try more but I already consume more calories than needed anyways so I think my only Florida enjoyment will be when I watch Golden Girls.
Also aren't most fruit juices high in sugar these days? Least anything you buy in a bottle.
Not that fruit is bad but drinking what would take pounds of fruit to make a glass (I don't know exact amounts) does come with some some calories via sugar / carbs. An orange sliced up is probably pretty good overall still, but I'm not a nutritionist.
