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.

You dont have to like my attitude, but when your car is a computer with wheels, I'm not wrong about the need for technical abilities.

However, most people have zero clue how a 10 year old gas car works. I stand behind my assertion that people need to know how their shit works or learn to live with the fact that they've abdicated the responsibility to take care of themselves and will pay a grown up to do it for them.

Definitely a tech type: Arrogant, snide, and dismissive of people whose skill sets don't match their own.

I would start showing how little you actually know about anything (including your precious tech) but the lesson would be lost. You don't know enough about even the basics of how we know things, how societies work, and what the relationship is between humans and technologies to follow along.

Buhbye.

Its OK to feel insecure, but lashing out at others is typically frowned upon.
