At the bare minimum don’t express joy every time the US forces some stupid policy in your continent, only showing some modicum of disgust when they threat to kill white people. As something moderately intelligent, what about organizing and doing some theory and praxis instead of wasting your time “kicking out” the US with your wallets (spoiler alert: it’s not going to work).
Yeah, fair, hard to argue that everyone should put in their piece when the governments are still doing business as usual with them. I still think consumer boycotts are a net positive, even if mostly performative, not much else the average person can do, and that’s no reason to give up
For those of us in the back, what is the useful shit?

The useful shit is the big money deals.
When the US (or their Ukrainian assets) blew up Nord Stream Europeans cheered and opted to become dependant on US LNG. Turns out that was stupid.
They sign unfavorable trade deals and accept tariffs.
They buy extremely expensive F35s and the likes.
They host US military bases.
So yeah, not buying from McDonalds isn’t the big middle finger to US you think it is.

Ofc it’s a net positive. This guy has a hard on for what-about-ism.
You and I cant sign trading deals, but we can stop buying US products. Wtf are we supposed to do more?
