Switch to Linux from Windows or MacOS, use a degoogled Android ROM such as GrapheneOS, pay using cash when in person and using Monero when buying online using sites like shopinbit (based in Europe) & others listed on sites like monerica and kycnot.me or cash/Monero bought gift cards, to avoid using US payment processors, in general using privacy respecting open source software.

Everyone should do this, not just as a way of hurting the American economy, but as a way of regaining freedom over their own data and privacy, including Americans. Your data and privacy is being sold as a commodity to brokers/advertisers and governments, particularly the US govt. You should use this opportunity to take back control over your own privacy and freedoms.

So many European native companies/products like Milka or Cadbury were completely ruined by the American companies that bought them smh.

YES, I ain’t even Canadian but been saying this since day, those 2 companies are such a huge factor in how much leverage this 2 party dictatorship has over majority of the world, that and Microsoft, Apple, Google etc. This is why Cash is King, and using American payment processors just feeds their power and leverage over global finance.

You can see how its affected Russia when US payment processors halted operations as part of sanctions. The only viable alternative is using Monero for online transactions and physical cash.

Monero is the only realistic and promising way of paying people online without relying on the two largest payment processors on the planet, fully under the control of the US. The ONLY crypto that’s actually treated and used as a currency, rather than a stock like btc, and actually has any real world use and offers privacy.

That’s the issue with the FPTP voting system, it always eventually leads to a 2-party state like the US and the majority of the population votes for someone other than the winning party.

This happens in literally every country with the same voting system as the US.
