Swedes launch boycott of US goods in response to recent policy shifts
A series of #boycott movements emerged in response to the #US' recent policy changes, including #Trump's decision to halt support to #Ukraine and the announcement of #tariffs on #Europe, in what the followers believe will place some pressure on the US administration.
The groups are urging members to stop buying major US products, including:
- Tesla
- McDonald's
- Coca-Cola
- Nike
- Levi's
- stop using services such as:
-- Netflix
-- Google
-- Airbnb.
Jannike Kohinoor, creator of the Bojkotta varor från USA group, said she felt compelled to do something despite being a Swedish citizen.

This should be a viral national story in #US. After this team unanimously unionized, Google refused to come to the bargaining table.
A resolution supporting the workers was brought to the city council. The day the workers showed up to testify on the resolution, Google laid off the entire team.
This was the precise instant when YouTube Music employees became aware that we had lost our jobs, as we were addressing the City Council.
In the upcoming #US #presidential #election, Biden and Trump are on the #ballot. Both may have cognitive limitations, but let's not beat around the bush – some question Trump's mental sharpness too. So, let's play a round of "Top #Trumps" to compare who's more fit for the job.
Well, maybe we should measure it by who has fewer limitations, senility-wise?
So draw a card and let's compare:
Senility:
Biden 40, Trump 60
Erectile dysfunction:
Biden 40, Trump 60
Biden is leading for now, but what's the next card, and who will be the better #seniorcitizen?
It's not just about memory lapses; it's about leadership and vision. So, who's got the edge?

Dear @EU_Commission, here’s an incomplete list of foreign tech companies/apps gathering data on EU citizens and manipulating their behaviour:
- Meta Platforms, Inc. (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, etc.)
- Alphabet, Inc. (Google, YouTube, etc.)
- Twitter, Inc.
- Microsoft (Windows, etc.)
- Snap, Inc.
Thoughts?

What I’m saying is America is a warning, not an instruction manual.

Decentralization is the only way to systemically fight social media disinformation
#Russia 's information warfare in the #US didn't stop after Trump was elected. And US social network giants have failed to address it in the last 4 years. Partly because they directly benefit from content engagement, partly because as centralized platforms with billions of users, they naturally offer a bigger incentive to spread misinformation than any effort they are willing to mount to fight it.
The real solution, of course, is breaking the system into human-sized parts, through #decentralization. Even the biggest english-speaking #Fediverse instance has only 400,000 users, which makes it a mediocre target for misinformation with no opportunity for paid reach towards the nearly 3 million #Fediverse users.
