That's not the only reason, we are also boycutting the US because the US is no longer acting like our ally and actively talking about invading our countries.

[DePodcastSpecialist]

The fact that people in the USA still think it’s all about tariffs shows just how out of touch they are with the rest of the world.

Australia is boycotting too. Despite having a free trade agreement with the US, Mango Mussolini has imposed "reciprocal" tariffs on Australia

[AliceBurns-ycyh]

I approve of the boycotts, I do not support fascists.

[chrysalis]

It's not so much the tariffs as the US rude attitude and bullying, threatening to take over Greenland and Vance giving a lecture to the EU as though the US is the perfect place.

Canada here, boycotts work. Americans are freeking out because Canadians are speaking with their wallets. Tourism from Canada is down over 70% in some states. Canadian tourists spent over 20 billlion dollars last year in the USA. No more and hopefully will permanent. Besides, it's too dangerous to go to states. You might be abducted by the American government and sent to a jail in El Salvador.

Austria and Germany are boycotting US products together

[Mastermerlin-jf]

I'm from Belgium and I'm trying to avoid buying American things

[lynnm]

It’s the healthiest political boycott ever!

Yes, we can!

[BjorckBengt]

It is not the tariff, it is the fascism that is the main reason for our boycott.

[petterljung]

It’s not the tariffs it’s the Facism, and threats from the USA

[syraal]

These tariffs might be a good opportunity for the whole world to remind those Americans that the world is not only the US, the world has independent, sovereign countries outside the US too.

As an American, I’m begging, please boycott the US, continue to push back on your governments to hold us and these corporations accountable.

Many of us here in the US are struggling. Many Americans have never stepped beyond their own communities; they’ve never left their state, let alone seen the world. That kind of isolation breeds ignorance—and that ignorance is being weaponized.

What’s happening now is not what our ancestors fought for. Your grandparents and great-grandparents, and mine, knew how these regimes rise. They knew the signs. They saw what happens when people stay silent or look the other way.

We need your voice. We need your outrage. We need your refusal to normalize this. Apply pressure to your governments to stand strong.

Please, don’t give up on us. Many of us are fighting—but we can’t do it alone.

No US products come into our household, not even as a gift!

[francescoguzzetta]

I've just sold all my US stocks to buy European titles

[owbvbsteve]

I’m an American. We have very few things here that are even worth buying.
The last thing you need is to be American. 60% obese, cars are bad, our way of living is definitely not what you should copy.
Support your own culture. Don’t copy one that’s killing its people

[LapinDebogues]

I like marking non US products with a symbol. It will make it easier to boycott US. We in Canada never got to vote in the US elections. This way we get to vote everytime we buy something.
I will buy anything rather than US and btw as a Canadian I love European food and products.
Vote democracy!
Vote Freedom
Vote antifascist

[mailwiggum]

Norwegian here. We are pissed with the Trumpf guy and will boycott US products. But for a few people, most people I know do not want to visit US anymore.

[jonbruford]

Its not the tariffs or the fascism, it's the fact that the food is poisonous and the machinery is badly designed and made.

Stop eating McDonalds, get thin and healthier
