I want to stick this up in the US, too.

You can boycott us companies that donate to the political parties. Big money has no place in politics.

If this drives ppl off of WhatsApp to Signal and they remain there post this US administration, I think that's another win

[โ€“] kaidezee@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

SimpleX is better!

The sentiment really needs to shift to buy non-american. As a canadian i am totally happy to buy EU, AuS, NZ, even China over USA.

[โ€“] neons@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

even China over USA.

Beg to differ. This feels a bit like those republicans voting to abolish the social security they rely upon just to "own the libs".

China is in no way better than the US and needs to be stopped just as much.

We should act in our own interest (furthering manufacturing in Western/democratic countries) and not in spite ("owning" the us-americans)

There is no part of me that supports the chinese government. But they arent threating to anex my country so i will, if necessary, buy chinese over USA. Its basically a sliding scale of bullshit ๐Ÿคฎ
