While tens of thousands of people have joined Facebook groups in Sweden and Denmark calling for no longer buying American, Norwegian company Haltbakk Bunkers has announced that it will stop supplying US military vessels with fuel.
This first US company they (and everyone) needs to boycott is Meta.
I’m in Canada and Facebook is huge for my business. We get more bang out of a free social media post than paying for advertisements anywhere.
I fricking HATE IT.
On a personal level, I almost never use facebook. I refuse to put it on my phone and really only use it not to post stuff for the business - which I do through a 3rd party social media app.
FB is huge in Canada for personal stuff too, me and my friends do not post meal pic or vacation or things like this, but damn marketplace and some hobbies group are strong there. Just the “Made in Canada” FB group grew from 50’000 members to 1.1 million in less than a month.
FB can be easily replaced with Lemmy, it’s just a question of age/generation I guess
no not really, its a totally different thing. you cant follow people here, nobody here uses their real name, and you can’t limit visibility of content to just friends. marketplace is also not a thing, and that feature is not just yet another community

And so: Hello Lemmy! Here I am! Left ‘socials’ like reddit, dropped hotmail and google accounts … i’ts not much but it’s start
“Calls for Europe to stop eating garbage food like Americans.” Sounds like a good idea to me.
Good and the Orange Shitstain wants the EU to import more US made goods. Canada should cut the electric power flowing to the USA when the US tariffs commence.
Ding, dong, the reich is dead!
Drag is very much looking forward to singing this.
Petition your governments to drop IP laws for US tech companies like Doctorow is encouraging. If the US isn’t going to honor trade agreements, hit us right in our gold plated scrotum.
American here: genuinely, go for it. If you want to be even more highly targeted, you can also take a page out of Canada’s book: they’re encouraging people to target things that are produced in red states specifically, in addition to a general push for a boycott. Bourbon (from Kentucky), for instance.
As an American here, I think I might join them. Start buying more Canadian goods.
Support your local breweries and buy their sodas and not coca cola <3 I do this and ngl Oettinger cola-mix and Riegele Spezi are amazing
This is the time for the Italian MoleCola to shine!
Guess they aren’t really our allies after all. The truth always comes out eventually.
You’re threatening greenland, and now threatening spain saying stuff like “we dont need their permission to use their bases”, and you have the audacity to act like the victim? 😆
Delete the USA, someone, finally
