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.

Join 50501.chat to fight back!

The beer's actually brewed in Toronto, but it's the best I could do.

Solid plan, but I feel obliged to recommend Black Faxe to you, the 1L cans more specifically.

[–] ArmchairAce1944@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

They dont have the 1l cans where I live, but it is an excellent beer.

[–] montechristo@feddit.org 3 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Did the Danes ever intend their beer to become part of the language of love?

[–] Rothe@piefed.social 2 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

The only way to buy Faxe in Denmark is as imports. They are not sold in regular stores here anymore.

[–] TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'll be damned, that's too bad.

This isn't even beer, it's a canned headache.

As an American I envy Canadian's choice of beers with higher alcohol content. Most breweries around here only offer IPAs if you want anything above 6%.

[–] TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I've run into a similar problem here as well, in that if it's not on the shelf it's a little more difficult to get. I've had to order some beers/liqueurs from vendors, the only catch is that it's not available on the spot.

[–] NihilsineNefas@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You had their 15%'er? Its brake cleaner for your brain.

[–] TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'd never heard of it until just now, might have to take a look sometime in the future...

[–] Goldholz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

As a german, what is german pizza?

[–] cabhan@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Schau bitte dieses schöne Exemplar an

[–] Goldholz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago

Warum musstest du mich daran erinnern

[–] thehowlingnorth@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

In this case, it's just a regular, mass-produced frozen pizza from a German factory. There's nothing really culturally significant about it.

[–] bstix@feddit.dk 1 points 2 weeks ago

Sauerkraut pizza is a thing.

[–] shittydwarf@piefed.social 8 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

In high school we used to have a game called "Faxe hands". You tape a large can of faxe to each hand and try to finish them both before you pee your pants, always a great time!

Nope Canadian through and through.

[–] regedit@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

One more thing we have in common with our northerly neighbors!

[–] JeromeVancouver@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Measurements in Canada are weird. We have a blend of the imperial and metric system. I only know my weight in pounds and my height in feet. When cooking we use fahrenheit but my thermostat is set in Celsius

That is strange.

[–] JillyB@beehaw.org 2 points 2 weeks ago

In college we had "Edward 40-hands". Where you taped 2 40oz (1180mL) malt liquor bottles to your hands and couldn't remove them before finishing. I pissed my coworker's bed playing that.

[–] EyIchFragDochNur@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (3 children)

By German pizza you mean a Döner?

Btw over here Faxe sells 1l cans

[–] thehowlingnorth@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Idk, flatbread pizza. Says "product of Germany", which, by Canadian law, means it has to have at least 80% of it's production done in that country. So, it's made there. As for culinary style, I couldn't say for sure.

[–] EyIchFragDochNur@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

I was joking, Döner Kebab in a pita sandwich is just like the most common fast food here

[–] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

When I was a kid, we lived in Germany. The local pizza had canned tuna on it. Super strange. I'm United Statesian. I remember the rest of Germany and the German people very fondly. End of story.

[–] Saapas@piefed.zip 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Why was it strange? You don't have tuna on a pizza?

[–] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

No tuna on pizza here, nope. Some folks like anchovy, but it's rare to encounter. In my 40+ years of life, i've only heard someone ask for anchovy once. I'm just talking normal takeout pizza, not fancy fine dining michelin star food.

[–] Saapas@piefed.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Tuna pizza is fairly common in Finland. Frutti di mare and opera have tuna usually, opera being pretty popular pizza to buy

[–] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Thanks for the insight. Maybe it's a European thing.

[–] HornedMeatBeast@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

My father and I used to get the 1 Litre black cans, the strong version.

1 litre of 10% beer was quite a kick.

[–] beeng@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 weeks ago

Flammkuchen

[–] tempest@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

This was my former alcoholic roommates go to beer! I would hear him crack one open before going to work!

[–] djmikeale@feddit.dk 2 points 2 weeks ago
[–] ArmchairAce1944@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Faxe beer is awesome. From the 5% to the 10% versions.

[–] Stitch0815@feddit.org 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You must have not had a propper beer then :D

But you do you

[–] NihilsineNefas@slrpnk.net 3 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Calm down pal, just because it's not some 8.3% 25 dollar per 1/3rd pint honeycomb mallow root raspberry stout with hints of black tar heroin brewed exclusively by monks in the alps doesn't make it any less a good beer.

[–] Stitch0815@feddit.org 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Calm down pal

I am thinking of a good classic german Helles

[–] NihilsineNefas@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 weeks ago

It's all good sorry for going off, I'm not good at doing the tone indicators for "I'm taking the piss and making it as obtuse as possible"

[–] Alienmonkey@mander.xyz 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Hey there buddy, I'm gonna need to request a source for this 8.3% 25 dollar per 1/3 pint honeycomb mallow root raspberry stout with hints of black tar heroine brewed exclusively by alpine monks... for a friend.

[–] NihilsineNefas@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 weeks ago

The raspberry mallow may have been an exaggeration thanks to brewdog being champions, but Vault Brewery genuinely make an 8% honeycomb chocolate stout that's glorious

[–] Talaraine@fedia.io 2 points 2 weeks ago

I'm American and Faxe was my favorite beer when I lived in Denmark. Do they even sell this here? (you know, before the tariffs xD)

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago
