Call for boycotting US products spreads across America
I imagine that would be very easy, outside of software and digital services.
Even in Canada I’ve nearly managed.
Why outside those services? You really think it’s not possible yet?
I mean, I’m close, but I’m tech savvy and willing to just not be on the same social media platforms as other people. Even then, if I want to stream something without sailing the high seas non-American options are limited, although that of course might be different in Europe.
Fun fact, a lot of “American” stuff is filmed in Canada anyway.
Well, if content comes from Canada it’s just a question of server hosting. You refer to Netflix and co? That’s a wip everywhere I guess https://www.reddit.com/r/newfoundland/s/jkna5XzvxH
Kick them out of Ramstein.
Here’s to hoping this happens
Good and the Orange Shitstain wants the EU to import more US made goods. Canada should cut the electric power flowing to the USA when the US tariffs commence.
Put it under “maintenance”.
I’m American (embarrassed to say that right now) and came to visit this site to get off Reddit. Even we are exploring non-US options.
Don’t be embarrassed of being an American, you can be embarrassed of your politicians, of the people that represent you without being embarrassed of where you were born. You can criticize all the bads things in your country (and your country has done) while also being proud of the good things!
But to be fair, you were warned about political parties from the start of your democracy, and even with the warning having just 2 is terrible.
The american politicians are fine, what gaslighting is this the world loves doing to America? fucking ridiculous. EU flooded with muslims and stabbings look inside your own shit country before critisizing America.
America is fucking garbage. Shut the fuck up.
make sure to leave a negative review of the reddit app.
Welcome and have fun! Glad to see you over on this side :)
I wish people would boycott spending on the big holidays. That’ll hurt the oligarchs the most.
Big holidays? America will be in a recession by Easter at this rate
As an American I support this action.
Same, the only language Trump Co. speak is money, gotta hit em where it hurts.
Bro, me too, fuck everything about trump, and right now, fuck us. I’m not buying shit unless I have to. Except from local shops.
I’ve felt this way since Mango Mussolini’s first term.
I feel bad that as consumers at best we label all under Trump’s banner, at worst we don’t have the ability to punish only the red states like government tariffs can do
Stay strong
Economic death to America!
Ding, dong, the reich is dead!
Drag is very much looking forward to singing this.
Good, fuck the USA and it’s garbage products. It’d be harder to do if they weren’t shit now, but perpetually cutting quality is basically the USA’s motto. Now they are experiencing it in the government.
Petition your governments to drop IP laws for US tech companies like Doctorow is encouraging. If the US isn’t going to honor trade agreements, hit us right in our gold plated scrotum.
And stop enforcing them FOR them. I’ll never understand US export laws !
I’m down, anyone have a great list with images I can use so I know which groceries to avoid?
Pretty sure Brave is American.
It’s also sketchy.
Bluesky is also an American platform.
Mozilla is also American.
Yeah, there’s a couple of issues with this graph.
Should have listed at least a Firefox fork instead, especially with the recent change in the ToS.
Thanks! I should have been more specific, I was thinking more in the groceries department.
I use the ‘No Thanks’ app, but only as a starting point to then confirm if what they say it’s true. I don’t like that it’s closed source, but at least it’s an option. Also, I should note that some brands are ethical in some countries or states, but not globally, so you should check local resources for better results 🧐
With the exception of nextcloud and firefox, those are all crap.
Yeah, that Lemmy thing is extremely crap.
It’s not terrible, but not a proper substitute. All the niche communities are very much dead. On the other hand you have an overload of leftist politics, linux, and gaming. Nothing inherently wrong with those either, but I’m missing a fair balance.
The only one here I use on the left is YouTube, and I specifically pirate their videos to host over LAN.
You can block ads too so they don’t make money.
I use AdNauseam to click all of them instead.
That is cool. Thanks for sharing.

ReVanced is just youtube though…
Here’s one with images (not 100% US specific):
soda is disgusting
Fuck you Orange Clown !
As a Canadian in this shit for a month, go for it!!! My last groceries contained 0% products from USA, if it’s doable for us Canadian, you can do it too! And don’t forget to cancel netflix, disney+, prime, etc.
I’m an American and I appreciate your effort
