none of the separate countries have economies that rival USA, BUT THAT’S WHY #EuropeanUnion EXISTS. put them all together and they do rival the “largest” economy in the world.
the #Boycott is happening because the EU left have been working on this for months.
for the #Divest, Macron literally said, stop all investments for the next month. that would tank Wall Street even further.
and #Sanctions? EU been itching to sanction USA tech oligarchs. tis the excuse they been waiting for. /
so, when Marine Le Pen got smacked down, decided to catch up with my French politics reading and, those were the days (less than a week ago) when only la gauche were calling for a boycott of États-Unis over #Gaza #Ukraine #Greenland and shameless #fascism & #corruption, especially the Tesla shmuck.
then the orange fuckwad turned tariffs into extortion.
so now, Macron has said, in so many words, it’s time to #Boycott #Divest & #Sanction USA:
@jeffjarvis Legacy media is dead. What's left is the necrotic arm of a fascist propaganda apparatus. #Divest #Debillionaritization
yes,
Yes,
YES! and say it with the chest:
OPPOSING FASCISM IS A JEWISH TRADITION

#BDS all collaborators with #Trump #MAGA #techbros and every sundry supporter of #AmericanFascism.

@RickiTarr someone just rolled up all the alt right taking points in their very siloed social media feed into a job description to let every one know that the company is owned by a chronically online MAGA jackass with zero critical thinks skills. I wish them I very pleasant chapter 11 bankruptcy filing. #Divest #Divert #Destroy
@jbz to some extent it is good because it #divest|s and #defund|s #PatentTrolls like #Sisvel who harrassed busonesses all the time.
@nixCraft The problem is that @mozillaofficial refuses to acknowledge that #Firefox and it's promise of #privacy and #openness is their "core #product" and that many people, including myself, will #divest and #boycott any #donations to them until they apologize and undo the harm they pushed with "#AI" / #LLM - based #Enshittification.
In fact, I hope #Firefox gets handed over to @torproject and #TorBrowser becomes the new #Upstream!
I'm reading more every day about Jewish donors divesting from charities which have turned antisemitic. This puts these organizations into a challenging position- one which they've created for themselves:
Bow to the loud demands of hate groups, or accept donor funds.
It's an important sign to Jews as well: Our voices, or at least our money, counts.
I guess divestment does work!
The next phase of the work will be to re-engage these entities with conditions that include anti-hate requirements, and if not, then we go back to what we have always had to do in our two thousand years in the diaspora: make our on institutions.
We can do this, and we must for the future of our people.
#Arizona's Universities are Instruments of War
The United States provides more than 70% of the funds and weapons used for #WarCrimes and #genocide in #Palestine. Arizona universities are a backbone of the war industry.
by Brenda Norrell, Censored News, Oct. 31, 2024
TUCSON, Arizona -- "When Arizona's largest universities slammed down on Palestine supporters, it was obvious they were hiding something. What they were hiding was the fact that they are thriving on war dollars.
"The most obvious is Raytheon Missiles located at the #UniversityOfArizona's Tech Park in Tucson. The less obvious are the millions in grants and contracts that both the University of Arizona and #ArizonaStateUniversity receive for technology, including cyber technology, artificial intelligence and robotics.
"While slamming down on #Palestinian support -- and shooting them with #RubberBullets in #Tucson and denying some graduation at #ASU in the #PhoenixValley -- both universities were heading up a national coalition of U.S. universities to support Israel, after the genocide was underway.
"Arizona State University in #Tempe, in the Phoenix Valley, has gone to the extreme to silence voices in support of Palestine. Besides forbidding pro-Palestine rallies, its harsh crackdown on encampments has resulted in 62 Palestine supporters now facing charges."
