Boycott of American Goods!!

Posted on by Opher

I’m so disgusted with Trump and his Nazi MAGA cult, his tariffs, his siding with Putin, his betrayals of friends and sucking up to despots, his backing of Netanyahu and war against tolerance, that I’m going to boycott all the American goods I can.

I’m going to shop at LIDL and buy British of continental, Australian or New Zealand – anyone but Russian, USA or North Korea (not too keen on Chinese either!). I will look for alternatives and change my purchasing habits.

These companies will be banned from my shopping:

  • Hershey’s: Chocolate bars and sweets.
  • Kellogg’s: Breakfast cereals and snacks.
  • Heinz: Ketchup, baked beans, and canned goods.
  • Del Monte: Canned fruits and vegetables.
  • Duncan Hines: Cake mixes and desserts.
  • Kraft Heinz: Various products including cheese, pasta, and sauces.
  • Quaker: Oats, corn meal, and rice snacks.
  • Betty Crocker: Cake mixes, frostings, and baking essentials.
  • General Mills: Includes brands like Häagen-Dazs, Old El Paso, and Green Giant.

I will look for similar foods and am prepared to pay a little more or alter my tastes!!

I will investigate further and add to the list of banned companies and switch to less offensive brands. It’ll take a bit of time but I’ll refine my list as I go along. Bye Bye USA!! Fuck off Trump!! Fuck you MAGA!!

It may only be a gesture but it’ll make me feel a lot better!!

Why not join me??

Support our friends!!

Ditch our unreliable enemies!! Ditch Trump!!

Poetry – The Best Minds of My Generation

The Best Minds of my Generation

I watched the best minds of my generation struggling to discover the truth,

Striving to establish equality,

Learning to respect the universe in which we find ourselves

And dreaming of discovering a better, more meaningful, way to live.

I watched the best minds of my generation applying their whole being

Into filling their lives with wonder,

Celebrating the beauty of existence

And expressing their lust for sensation.

I saw them laugh, rant and argue,

Rabid with passion,

With bulging eyes and wild gesticulations,

Desperate to communicate the ideas in their heads

Before they dissipated into the ether,

Until their tongues were too exhausted to sing,

Their limbs too exhausted to dance,

Their organs too exhausted to love,

And their minds too numb to think.

So that they finally subsided

Into contemplative ecstasy

And slept wherever they found themselves.

I was fortunate to find myself among a group of artistic people who were eager to expand their horizons and were never content to lead a mundane life. They were explorers of inner space, travellers and creators.  They were as eager as me to delve into the possibilities and mysteries that surrounded them.

They were not prepared to accept the ordinary and always strived to unearth the extraordinary.

I was very fortunate.
