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.

"Sir this is a Burger King! Yes, it used to be a Wendy's."
“fast-food value wars“ 🤣 - there is no value in fast-food.
I don’t know the old value meal at McDonald’s was pretty great. 5 bucks Canadian for a McDouble or junior chicken, fries and a pop.
Outside of staying in your basement your entire life, can you name a few restaurants giving you 1200cals/1/2lbs of Burger fries and drink for $12?
Any mom and pop imbiss in Europe will cook you a freshly made meal for that price. A Schnitzel with Fries in Germany or Austria, half a chicken with Fries, a Kebap almost everwhere in Europe (although it’s about $15 in Switzerland but that’s an outlier), fish and chips in the UK, ….
There’s lots and lots of options that are vastly superior to McDonalds, Burger King, KFC and the likes.
Where, link it. And linking 400 calories of breaded chicken ain't the same as a half pound burger. Where are you getting 1200+cals make for $12?
Just eat 300g of pure sugar with the chicken if you want to up the calories and get the whole unhealthy fast food experience.
It's a salty burger with salty fries. There is some added sugar in the bread but I got need for you, plenty of bread (even the Euro bread) has some added sugar. Certainly not health food but you started off with schnitzel 🤷♂️.
I kind of like Wendys, better than Dairy Queen, but in this economy I can make better food at home for less money.
