Can’t wait to see some Teslas upside down at the dealership

But first set it on fire to get rid of the excess weight.
No need they will do that themselfs.
People are doing the same in Canada with US products.
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.
“that’s illegal”
— DonaldWe should do that to US foods in the US.
We should do that to US
foodsflags in the US.Haha, Don’t.
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
Hear hear!
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.

https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/us-jd-vance-peter-thiel-founded-company-helps-israel-kill-lists-palestinians-gazaOne 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.
Yes it is
Make sure it is Aldi Sud not Aldi Nord though

Is there actually any evidence of this happening? Isn’t this just a photo of a couple items upside down in a shop?
I haven’t seen anything like that in any store or supermarket here in Spain. Nor even hear about this until now. So I say it’s just a couple off items upside-down in a shop.
You can be the change.
I asked my friend and in Canada people are doing this as well as other more aggressive tactics to flag American products.
The more people know about this, the møte they can do these things themselves
Like, you and I could do this to our local shop for example, although, I’d probably talk with the workers there first haha. If the workers are going to keep flipping them back then there won’t really be too much point

Consider doing this in my supermarket.
As an American I implore you to start.
People are telling me to boycott Tesla and I’m over here like “I wasn’t about to buy a $65k vehicle spontaneously but I guess won’t now anyways.”
My broke ass:
I won’t buy a Tesla this year. In fact, I won’t buy TEN Teslas.
When I was looking for a new vehicle last year, I had already crossed Tesla off the list because I think they’re butt ugly, and I need buttons to at least operate the climate control. And I’m really glad I did.
Direct action time
I already skipped two/three products yesterday, one only after scanning it deliberately to find out whether I should avoid it.
Skipped products: Milka spread (Mondelez) and Schweppes. Bought European instead.
All non eu products? Or jus american products

How is the EU becoming fascist?
Thats Germany. Not the EU.
Also, as dissapointing as the results are, the conservative party seems pretty determined not to collaborate with the AfD.
The vote showed that 80% of Germans hate AfD.
But I guess that means Germany is now full fash…
Is it a real question?
I’m interested in what you think at least.
Antiyanks, get a life.
INB4 American companies redesign their packaging.
That shape would arguably be an even clearer indicator of american wares lmao
all non-EU or just made usa?
All, EU+non-EU+US, I think, it’s owned by the US companies.
Is there a list somewhere of commonly found American products in European supermarket so that I can definitely not do a bit of this…?
I lose track of all the daughter companies and such that one should watch out for.
minus Nestle (sadly) and Unilever
This picture is going through the net for so long, still German news are trying to convince its readers that there aren’t many American products on European supermarket shelves.
This image alone proves that governments only care about monopolies in writing 😂
Edit: Aw fuck, Ms Vickies is Canadian but owned by Pepsi? Fml. So in the end, it’s not really Canadian. We can’t have anything good…
Old Dutch chip is canadian
I hope so, I’m running out of chips that are real Canadian chips 😂
TIL Garnier is affiliated with Nestlé. And here I thought I found good vegan bleach to dye my hair. Smh my head
Nestlé doesn’t need to be American for you to boycott it though.
In this community it kinda does but I still agree in general
Minus Unilever as well.
Thanks, fixed it
Here is a list that may be helpful

And if you were not totally against using AI, then you could load that list to Mistral, take a pic and identify things quickly. As per the photo.
Thanks! I find the method interesting. Are the results mostly accurate in your experience?
I haven’t done any proper validation - was just a very basic PoC, using resources available to anyone (a list of companies and their subsidiary brands + free LLM) to see if it would work in principle.
The file itself is sourced from Wikipedia, so is probably accurate enough if you just wanted to ctrl+f and search manually.
Based
On what
I wouldn’t do it because I just don’t feel like being that akward (it’s already akward for me to be in a store).
But I do appreciate it, I do mostly buy store brand products so don’t expect i’ll be contributing much to the US brands.
