Teslas are shit quality anyway, just like every other American car. That, and Tesla employees like to jerk off to videos Teslas are recording of naked people in their garages, although every car manufacturer is participating in surveillance capitalism.

American here, good.

The rest of the world needs to start competing with the US instead of suckling its teat.

Everyone will be better off for it except for the conmen taking America for a ride right now.

Nah. Americans should stop putting unnecessary shit in their food.

Even our grocery store bread is considered cake because of how much sugar we put in it. It’s fucking stupid.

I agree, but that’s a different argument entirely.

I could tell this was Lidl just from the font on the prices.

If I want to boycott American, buying Lidl and Aldi own brands is an easy way to do this, yes? I’m doing this by default because I have an easily navigatable Lidl that I can walk to.

I am American and I am doing all my grocery shopping either at Aldi or from farmer markets now. Fuck Musk, fuck Trump, and fuck the US for falling to fascist oligarchy.

Glory to Ukraine. Glory to Democracy

Lidls owner Schwarz is heavily invested in an Israeli “cybersecurity” start-up run by a former Mossad director. As always with Israeli “cybersecurity” that embraces “former” ties to intelligence, you should expect ongoing ties to Israeli and US intelligence agencies.

These are the kind of people that helped get Trump elected.

One thing at a time. Lidl isn’t necessarily in question here, it’s the boycott intention. We do the same thing boycotting in Israeli products too.
