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 get rid of citizen's united and 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.

Poor people don't have shares lol what are you talking about?
Of course they do. Even if not directly but by proxy through a pension. Pretty much everyone has investments. Are you 15 years old or something?
Fewer than 13 million USAmericans have pensions. In fact, nearly half have no retirement plan at all.
That's what being poor actually means. Did you grow up rich or something?
No, I grew up and still live in a civilised country where every working human has a pension.
What kind of pension is panic selling tesla stock?
401ks and pensions are in passive safe funds that aren't usually being actively managed. If they are they are looking at the long term and will hold unless there's some sort of economic collapse happening.
