Comment on US could cut Ukraine's access to Starlink internet services over minerals, say sources.

  The US is only such a powerhouse, because they generally have the support of their allies. That makes it the unparalleled biggest economic block in the world.
  But without their allies, USA isn’t that much bigger than China. And USA wouldn’t be nearly the powerhouse they’ve gotten used to be.

  So China just has to look on and do nothing, while USA is losing their world dominance quickly.

  Yea, buyFromEU is already getting traction. More intense on reddit and a little bit on feddit.org/c/buyFromEU

  Would be nice to see global sanctions against the US. Not realistic, but I hope all countries are moving towards significantly reducing American reliance. It’ll be a slow process, but needs to be done.

    Honestly sanctions agains companies like these that can be weaponized politically sounds very reasonable.

    They are national security threat in the true meaning of the word.

      I’ve been looking at getting solar installed, and been talking to a few different companies for quotes. One place only supplies PowerWall batteries, and I said to the sales rep that I wasn’t really interested in buying anything from Tesla and his face made it pretty clear that that was the answer he’d been getting a lot recently

      Ottawa announced yesterday that they’ll be dropping more than half of federal internal trade barriers.

      I think I heard something about easing trade barriers between Ontario and I think it was either Saskatchewan or Manitoba.

  As an American, I’d like the boycott to be more targeted. But yes, every company that licks the boots of this obviously fascist regime should see no more sales. I don’t have a full list, but it includes at least Meta, Alphabet (Google), and Amazon.

  I moved all my cloud computing from DO and Vultr to European owned options. It’s a small thing, but it’s about the only thing that I had been purchasing from the USA.

  Just relax and let trump continue destroying the USA. He’s doing putin’s work and fucking us all, Europeans and Americans alike.

  We don’t really make anything though, aside from software I guess.
