Calls for boycotting US products spread in northern Europe

Here's to hoping trump tariff war makes those stupid American pick-up trucks a lot more expensive to buy in EU. I hope the douchebags that bought them before have to pay way higher prices for parts now.

Fuck us up, y'all!

Sincerely,

Ashamed American

Can we collectively decide not to respect American intellectual property laws to really hit the tech sector where it hurts? We don't get that many physical goods over here but most of our software is American owned. I advocate for not paying American tech companies anymore.

If you want to learn how to do successful boycott campaigns, you should look for the BDS Movement, that has worked to spread awareness to boycott companies affiliated with the illegal Israeli occupation and genocide against Palestinians.

And no surprise, you will find many US companies in there. Also it should come as no surprise, that the US wants to outlaw even talking about boycotts in many states, as well as corrupt European politicians like in Germany attacking the notion of boycotting companies involved with brutal crimes against humanity.

We need to join efforts in reducing the economic power of Imperialism, whichever shape it takes.

"Calls for Europe to stop eating garbage food like Americans." Sounds like a good idea to me.

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.

Anyone else in northern Europe noticing that all the US products are the shitty ones you never buy anyway? I think the only American stuff I ever buy is steam games. No food. I was already boycotting Starbucks and MacDonalds over Palestine.

American here: genuinely, go for it. If you want to be even more highly targeted, you can also take a page out of Canada’s book: they’re encouraging people to target things that are produced in red states specifically, in addition to a general push for a boycott. Bourbon (from Kentucky), for instance.

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.

Edit: I'm on mobile and can't tell if this uploaded blurry or not (looks kinda rough to me). Here's the source.

great! as an American please keep it up. the only thing these assholes understand is money. support us by NOT supporting us!

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.

While tens of thousands of people have joined Facebook groups in Sweden and Denmark calling for no longer buying American, Norwegian company Haltbakk Bunkers has announced that it will stop supplying US military vessels with fuel.

This first US company they (and everyone) needs to boycott is Meta.

I fully support this movement, but I expect it's mainly an echo bubble and will remain as such. Leave the fediverse and subreddits and most people won't even care.

Fuck Coca-Cola drink Irn Bru!

As an American I support this action.

And for us Canadian, there is always https://madeincanadadirectory.ca/

Good to see major news agencies pick this up.

I wish people would boycott spending on the big holidays. That'll hurt the oligarchs the most.

Make a dent on us corp earning report, stock market is actually one of few sources Trump might listen.

Economic death to America!

I deleted my Disney plus and Amazon prime accounts last week and it felt so damn good.

People should focus on boycotting evil corporations in favor of open, sustainable and fair alternatives. Picking a fight against another nation is only taking people away from that objective

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 down, anyone have a great list with images I can use so I know which groceries to avoid?

Fuck yea, keep doing this! People around me in the USA are fucking morons and can't be bothered to do this. Even the liberals that complain about their corporate masters are too chicken shit to do it.

I've been waiting 10 years for this to catch on.

I’m not saying I want this to happen, but it might just be more effective to have a foreign nation’s intelligence service wipe out Elon Musk . I mean, I don’t want him to die or anything, but if you could just do a Jimmy Hoffa and make sure that nobody ever finds his remains that would be just swell 

Boycotts echo louder than speeches; Haltbakk Bunkers leads by example.

Kind of ironic that the people joined facebook groups for that...

I'm boycotting everything. Shopping local if I have to have something. Cash only. I only carry my bank card and one credit card for emergencies.

I imagine that would be very easy, outside of software and digital services.

Even in Canada I've nearly managed.
