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.

According to a report from LetsRun.com, only four of the 18 Ethiopian U20 athletes had their U.S. visa applications accepted

For the last four decades, Ethiopia has won a medal at every World XC Championships. It’s an unbelievable 44-year streak built on dominance and talent. But the streak is now in jeopardy. On Tuesday, it was reported that more than a dozen Ethiopian athletes were denied travel visas to the U.S. ahead of this weekend’s World XC Championships in Tallahassee, Fla.

Hitler was less of a little bitch?

It's hard to imagine but it's true

That's not exactly a low bar though...

World cup is going to be hilarious.

FIFA already bribed Trump with their peace prize. He's stupid enough to fall for the transparent flattery and let the World Cup happen without problems.

Lol, do you think the racists he's enabling at all levels of government are a tap he can turn on and off? They are driving out the same people and forcing racist policies on those that don't agree. Look at what's happening to trans people. Their documents are being rescinded or they can no longer get them.

The event was yesterday. Ethiopia placed second in medals and US managed to steal a bronze medal because there were no Ethiopians in men’s U20.

Mango Mussolini being racist again.

I hope everyone boycotts the 2028 Olympics. It will be just the Fascist States of America, the Saudis, Turkey, and Russia.

I do not know that the FSA will still have anything left to them by that time.

They'll cheat some random sporting tournament, but they played the 2024 election "fair & square?" Right.

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Let's see how many other countries boycott.

[–] LordMayor@piefed.social 16 points 5 days ago

The top Americans should boycott, too, if they have any respect for the sport and themselves. We’ll see.

Just enough to take the 1st place in each and every sport & category
