Soooo, when will all this anti-US consumerist movement result in those Levis 501 jeans I've been eyeing dropping in price?
I'm hoping for the perfect intersection of price drop and waistline drop.
I'm, despite being European, pro-American. It's just that what America has become disappoints me much like it disappoints most Americans. I'm not pro this America.
The government has always been responsible for some shady shit, but for a long time there, the US stood for diversity, not against it. Yes it took a long time for certain types of people to receive equal rights, but that was unfortunately the same pretty much everywhere else too. Big American metropolitan cities are huge melting pots of culture though. Go walk around NYC, it's awesome once you get far enough from Wall Street. I do hope I can one day still go to San Francisco as well, but despite being a white cishet male, I don't intend to visit the US unless the current admin is replaced with a sane one.
The US where and is always neo-liberal capitalism in its maximum expression, currently more than ever. Feudalism disguised as democratic
The US had a 94% income tax rate for the richest at one point. It has not always been what it is now. The country has been looted of both its' economic strength as well as its' moral values.
I don't want to see you flying your colonial-ass flag Canada, I want to see you supporting small, local, and indigenous owned businesses. Be pro-people, don't be pro-country.
I boycot them because of both!
I boycott products because I'm a freaking cheapskate.
Boycut companies with too much market power. They just happen to be quite concentrated in the US.
