I tried to not buy or encourage the awareness of american products in any form, unless the creator of that product is somebody that I wish to support and the product is good.
so yes, I will try to not spread the word of anything american, including culture topics, in an attempt to avoid promoting any spread of americanism
if I am thinking about consuming american content, I will obtain it via free means and not promote it, merely consume it quietly by myself
edit: I also tried to buy things at work through the Canadian supply chain as much as possible. not always possible, but I'm doing what I can
also I really can't see when I will ever return to the US. I think they would have to burn down the current system and start fresh for me to consider it. there's nowhere in the US that I need to travel where I couldn't travel within my country or to another country instead
