Avoiding American products

[Captain Caveman]

Seems to be a growing theme to avoid Made in America products -

Consumers are boycotting US goods around the world. Should Trump be worried?

From black stars on European goods to apps showing what’s Canadian, consumers can respond to tariffs with their wallets.

Here in the UK, to pass that message on, some people are highlighting which products are Made in the US by going to a product and turning one upside down. Also, news on the "Made In" app is being promoted more, just install and scan barcodes.

I've installed the app the Google Play store and will give it a whirl. Way before the tariff war days, I avoid peanuts, pistachio nuts etc.. from the US because they're tasteless.

On another note, as the US market becomes unreliable, people are ditching US debt, that means the cost of borrowing to the US government is increasing. So if the interest was $1trillion a year, it's set to increase. Probably why DOGE kicked off cos Trump and Musk knew they needed the savings just to tread water.

Theres "Made 'O' Meter" as well if you want to avoid American products.

If you do something like that in the US, and the targeted country is Israel, you're a criminal, and that's the case in 30 states.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

You don't, many are.

So you don't buy a can of nuts?

Ridiculous, you're small potatoes

 

[ozro]

If you indeed want to avoid American products, why are you using Google?

We don't sell much around the world... that's what this is all about... the items we do sell abroad... the people of the world can't do without... so I'm not concerned...

One person is a small fish in a big pond. Many fish make big ripples. Bud Lite had your attitude.

Nah, how's that?

If you indeed want to avoid American products, why are you using Google?

He's avoiding nuts from the US because he's already nuts.

 

[Captain Caveman]

And why is he on an American message board?

To educate indoctrinated Americans.

 

[Captain Caveman]

He's avoiding nuts from the US because he's already nuts.

They're shite. My mate goes to Spain every month so he brings back Pistachio nuts. They're actually a brand from Turkey. There's more flavour in one Turkish nut than in an entire pack of American nuts!! That's how shite American nuts are.

Then go ahead and shut the fuck up about it. You'll come crawling back soon enough.

I see what you're saying. You're saying that you weren't buying nuts from America before and now you are going to boycott nuts from America.

 

[Captain Caveman]

The funny thing is with Americans, binary. If you like Biden YOU MUST like everything Biden does. If you like Trump YOU MUST love everything Trump does. If it's Made in USA, YOU MUST like every American product.

What a sad state of affairs.

 

[Unkotare]

The takeaway here is that the British have no nuts.
