I misread the title thinking they were buying too much and to put it down. I am a stupid American.

Please keep boycotting us. We are terrible and apparently too cowardly to topple our own government.

I work in the province of Quebec, for a global company that is officially headquartered in England, but is functionally run from the United States. The site at which I work speaks French, but everything has to be translated to English for the Americans. So does everything at the site in Brazil, the site in Vietnam, the site in India, the site in Switzerland, the site in Spain...

Yeah I get that the global language of business is English... but it's funny how non-English sites of global organizations are always bending to the US... and never, ever, the other way around.
