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.

I'm sure the boycott will soften somewhat after Trump leaves (presuming he isn't made President for Life and heralding a new era in American governance) because people have short memories and will forget that almost all American officials at every level were either directly working for his platform or just sitting ineffectually at the side pretending to do anything but not really stopping it.
But it will only soften. It will not be over. Not for most Canadians alive today. The USA poisoned its brand but good and by the time Trump has stopped raging like a bull in a china shop, Canadians will have found new favourite brands and suppliers and such and American brands will be dead anyway.
Because once I find something I like, why would I go back just because the old brand says "but we've chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanged!"
It will take a long time for the American brand to be trusted again.
They'll have to demonstrate that they are willing to act in a trustworthy manner, and that they will continue to do so for more than a few years before reverting to fascist enshittification.
