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.

Practice lethal self defense! I hope to death that it will never come to that, but if they ever come for our heads, they better be prepared to lose their own! Better to have the skills and not need it, than to need it and not have it
And practice lethal community self-defense (i.e. well-organized militias). Lanchester's Square Law makes individual self defense almost irrelevant compared to community organizing.
Suppose for simplicity that skill, equipment, preparation, etc. all balance out and everybody is equally capable of killing others.
Then, if there are 5 assailants and 1 of you there is a 1/6 chance you shoot one of them, and 100% chance you die.
But if there are 5 of you and 5 of them, the situation is symmetrical. One side will have 4 casualties, the other 5, and it's a coin toss which.
And if there are 25 of you and 5 of them, the situation is reversed, and you'll walk away with one or two casualties.
By increasing your numbers 5-fold, you increase your effectiveness 25-fold.
The law doesn't apply when you're outranged, like if they decide to do artillery bombardment like in the Battle of Bunker Hill, but guerilla tactics and infrastructure can mitigate that.
