. Several Facebook groups have gained momentum, urging citizens to stop purchasing products from major U.S. companies. Two notable Facebook groups with more than 130,000 members combined are driving the initiative. The boycott targets a range of American brands, including Tesla, McDonald’s, Coca-Cola, Nike, and Levi’s, along with services like Netflix, Google, and Airbnb. Jannike Kohinoor, creator of one of the groups, “Bojkotta varor från USA,” explained her motivation for the boycott, stating that as a Swedish citizen with no voting power in U.S. elections, she felt compelled to take action. “When I can’t vote in the U.S. elections or demonstrate on the streets in the United States, I feel that I have to do something,” Kohinoor said. While many supporters are eager to find alternatives, some shoppers are finding it challenging to fully avoid American-made products. “It’s difficult because everything has an American influence. So it’s terribly difficult,” one shopper commented. Despite the challenges, the movement continues to grow, with members sharing alternatives and rallying behind the cause.
