    A single random picture isn’t actual evidence of this happening at all.

    I wouldn’t do it because I just don’t feel like being that akward (it’s already akward for me to be in a store).

    But I do appreciate it, I do mostly buy store brand products so don’t expect i’ll be contributing much to the US brands.

    I could tell this was Lidl just from the font on the prices.

    If I want to boycott American, buying Lidl and Aldi own brands is an easy way to do this, yes? I’m doing this by default because I have an easily navigatable Lidl that I can walk to.

      Lidls owner Schwarz is heavily invested in an Israeli “cybersecurity” start-up run by a former Mossad director. As always with Israeli “cybersecurity” that embraces “former” ties to intelligence, you should expect ongoing ties to Israeli and US intelligence agencies.

      These are the kind of people that helped get Trump elected.
