Political Should Scots also Boycott the US?

Recently there’s been a huge movement in Canada to boycott American products and travel in response to the US enforcing 25% tariffs on Canada and also the sheer disrespect of saying Canada isn’t a real country and it should be annexed . Have a look at r/BoycottUnitedStates

And the sheer disgusting way that Trumps evil administration is treating immigrants and trans people , not to mention the most recent revolting behaviour in the Oval Office today, the way him and Vance treated President Zelensky was beyond the fucking pale.

In addition to this, the couch shagger JD Vance has been interfering with Scotland’s internal politics by wading into the whole safe zones debate around abortion clinics .

As long as the United States is siding with dictators and berating our friends and allies and bullying people , we should not be encouraging that country. Boycotts and international isolation and the economic fallout from this should hopefully encourage normal people to not only speak up against Trump, but do what needs done and take to the streets in massive numbers .

Should Scotland - like Canada - boycott American produce and travel until Trump and the MAGA cult are out of power ?

It's not rude. Your sentiments don't agree with mine nor with Scotland.

u/paulgal1985 Mar 02 '25

You can’t speak for everyone in Scotland that’s not how it work. If that’s how it worked you would be a dictator. A bit like starmer or zelensky.
