Tesla sales are falling and apps and online groups are springing up to help consumers choose non-US items
The renowned German classical violinist Christian Tetzlaff was blunt in explaining why he and his quartet have cancelled a summer tour of the US.
“There seems to be a quietness or denial about what’s going on,” Tetzlaff said, describing his horror at the authoritarian polices of Donald Trump and the response of US elites to the country’s growing democratic crisis.
“I feel utter anger. I cannot go on with this feeling inside. I cannot just go and play a tour of beautiful concerts.”
Tetzlaff is not alone in acting on his disquiet. A growing international move to boycott the US is spreading from Scandinavia to Canada to the UK and beyond as consumers turn against US goods.
Most of the manufacturers here in the USA are republicans so keep it up they deserve it.
I've been boycotting US products for a while now. Funny thing is, I've been eating healthier as a result.
We Europeans need this as well.
We have, join the cause! Buy 🇪🇺
I already am. 💜 what I mean is displaying this in stores.
And so the worldwide embargo on America begins.
