    How do you quiet quit a country that you don’t live in? I’m not planning to travel to the United States anytime soon but I’m worried that they will not understand that I’m boycotting them and will think I’m simply not going.

    Do I need to write a letter or something?

      That’s what quiet quitting is. You quit without making a big deal out of it.

      Canada hasn’t been quiet about avoiding american brands. Like, entire sections of empty shelves in liquor stores that used to carry american brands and the like. But you can totally do that quietly, if you prefer the quiet approach.

        I’m trying to think if I really seen any American liquor brands in Europe anyway. The only thing I can think of is Jack Daniels and no one buys that. All the wine always seems to come from New Zealand for some reason.
