Edit: updated meme due to being dumb and having not enough Ts in the word boycott.

Edit #2: in an attempt to ensure that no one thinks that this is a real post from Whitehouse.gov (because like, it's getting hard to fucking tell at this point) I'm updating the meme again but without the navigation or article buttons.

PS, I used WorldwideHeadline Regular for the font incase anyone want to use this as a template or what ever

Isnt this just evil DEI, only for companies?

It’s illegal to not buy something? How does that work?

First: Jesus christ.

Second: Of course, enforcement will be difficult, so it will probably mostly be an honor system. But lets see...

Nobody tell them I turned down an offer at an Israeli company because it was Israeli

You can borrow a law enforcement technique called https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_construction.

I'm not a bot that just spits out Wikipedia articles, I swear.

(First time I've set safe search to strict in years 😄)

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 15 points 17 hours ago

Even if I wanted one I wouldn’t have the money to buy a Tesla. Is not being able to buy things also illegal now?

[-] ActuallyGoingCrazy@sh.itjust.works 20 points 16 hours ago

Yes, now go to ~~gulag~~ mental wellness camp

[-] Mechazawa@jlai.lu 25 points 17 hours ago

I don't even understand how that's supposed to work... Make boycott illegal is more or less forcing people to buy specific stuff ?

[-] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 17 hours ago

Boycott is more than the personal decision not to buy something but an organized action including public announcements, reach-outs, protests, ...

I don't know which one the first amendment is though. I guess it's freedom of speech?

[-] Dhs92@programming.dev 12 points 16 hours ago

Full text of the first:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

[-] blandfordforever@lemm.ee 3 points 13 hours ago

They sure do want to abridge that freedom of speech and right to peaceably assemble.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago

Freedom of assembly (to organize a coordinated boycott)

[-] Mechazawa@jlai.lu 5 points 17 hours ago

Oh, i get it, this makes more sense to me now. Yeah i think first amendment is freedom of speech and the right to assemble around some idea I guess.

38 US states already have anti-BDS laws on the books. Unfortunately this has already been here to a large extent.

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 16 points 16 hours ago

What the ever-loving fuck? How big is Israel’s dick that has all the countries lining to suck it?

[-] NewDark@lemmings.world 11 points 16 hours ago

It's effectively the 51st state with plausible deniability and nukes. Going against the country that spends more on its military than the next 10 combined is a big factor keeping them in line.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago

Consider that there are claims that Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were Mossad spies.

[-] crusa187@lemmy.ml 2 points 15 hours ago

America’s Israel First policy has really taken shape in the past several years. Both Biden and Trump are wholly complicit in sacrificing our sovereignty for Israel, and it’s absolutely pathetic.

[-] freely1333@reddthat.com 8 points 16 hours ago

Yeah, this. I had to sign a contract with the state (prior to all the Israel and Palestine stuff) and I was like the fuck is there a clause saying I can’t boycott anything to do with Israel?? Like in completely unrelated contracts you have to promise not to boycott or divest from Israel and I had no idea how or why that was even a thing because it didn’t cover any other country or entity. Israel has absolutely insanely good lobbying (or intelligence, or both).

[-] peregrin5@lemm.ee 12 points 17 hours ago

They lost the extra "T" in boycott.

[-] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 17 hours ago

Because boycotts are still legal, only boycots are not

[-] 13igTyme@lemmy.world 10 points 16 hours ago

Boycots sounds like something the catholic church supports.

[-] CubitOom@infosec.pub 1 points 16 hours ago

Damn, lol. I should've used a spell checker. Will update.

[-] donuts@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

Woah is this OC? I must say, if it wasn't for the Russian flag I wouldn't know this was satire.
