Ok - so while I'm not 'boycotting' America, because I don't really think that's going to change anything, I'd much rather spend my energy focusing on my local community. But having said that, I don't either understand or subscribe to certain U.S American cultural tropes such as:

• Driving oversized gas guzzling cars everywhere and believing it's freedom.
• Nuclear family values.
• Rampant exceptionalism (granted, I live in Sweden and we have our own flavor of it - hate it here as well)
• Zealous Christianity. Religions should be abolished.
• Out of control late-stage capitalism backed by military. But I'm a anarco-syndicalist so pretty much every country sucks.
• The American Dream. Connected to the above. It's not going to trickle down. Ever.
• Shitty polyarchical political system designed for the 'elite' and 'weath of the nation' (but again, I'm an anarchist, so everywhere sucks)
• Obesity and fast food culture.
• Everyday racism. The U.S is supposed to be the New World melting pot of cultures, showing us old world Europeans how it's done. Seems that didn't work.
• Enshittification of the Internet. Lack of anti-trust, lack of trade union power and lack of worker agency have all but destroyed the promise of early Internet. We have surveillance capitalism instead.

There's not much I can do about them though. Except to act in my local community, and to tell my kids and anyone listening: There are better ways to live and better ideals to aim for.
