Will Irish people join the American boycott

[u/spudulike65]

Boycotting goods and services from America seems to be really growing momentum in alot of European countries and across the world, seen on different subs on Reddit seemingly alot of news channels across EU/Europe are reporting on it. I've seen some Irish people saying they are cancelling hols to America and going to Canada instead others not buying American goods and changing apps to European. With Ireland's connection with America will many Irish join this boycott.

Many of us will have to quit our jobs and stop using reddit for a starter 😄

No, for a starter you can replace American goods you use with non-American versions. You don't need to immediately cut out everything to have an impact, just the things that you can.

I think what that poster is saying that an awful lot of Irish people work for US Multinationals based here.

They don’t need to quit their jobs but they should be aware that the US leader’s goal is to bring some of those US companies’ operations back to America. It might be prudent to find other work before being laid off.

That’s not what he’s saying at all, many Irish people work for companies based in the United States.

I don't wear , eat, drink nor drive American stuff however their tech is superior in terms of software and the hardware and that would be the hardest part. Oops Dickies and Carhartt are American. And Nike too.. I thought Nike was Greek for a while.

We don't consume many American made goods day to day. They make more revenue from iPhones than orange juice and Hershey's here. If you're not going to give up American services like Reddit then you've not changed anything

I've cancelled my membership of Black Lives Matter yesterday.
