    Def doing so. I stopped using US-owned social media altogether, and no longer buy American products. Friends whom I know also stopped investing in the US and moved to European ESGs and SRIs.

        Yup, and to avoid another US 2.0, it’s advisable to invest in worker-owned co-operatives, into independent, investigative journalism, and pro-democratic, antifascist movements. Be critical of algorithms that foster polarisation and right-wing sentiment.

        More democracy means better business, better labour, better wellbeing environments. Social wellbeing pays off greatly.
