Well a big problem with the US is that the establishment of the Democratic party has been saying for the last 30 years "NOT NOW, this election is TOO IMPORTANT TO TALK ABOUT THE FIRE ALARM" to people who are hurt and scared because they feel like they are definitely in a burning building.

And meanwhile, they're defunding the fire department.

Boycott US

2600 readers

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.
