Good. It may be your community, too, but that doesn’t permit you to shit it up by parading your support for a fascist dictator that’s actively malignant and hostile to those in that community… you included.
No MAGAt is part of my community, I don’t care how they identify.
They aren’t restricting anyone’s political speech (which, as a private business, they are allowed to do anyway), they are not allowing the promotion of a Treasonous Terrorist Hate Group that has specifically targeted their preferred patrons.
They don’t have to allow MAGA Nazis to walk among their patrons wearing their bigotry, any more than a synagogue must allow a Neo-Nazi to walk among their congregation wearing a swastika.
Frankly, the bar should be apologizing to their patrons for not tossing the guy out the instant he walked in. I’ve managed and owned restaurants and other retail establishments, and I’ve never had a problem ejecting idiots who walk in wearing clothes that will piss off my customers. You can wear your Fuck You shirt anywhere in public you want, but you aren’t wearing it in my family restaurant where you will offend my family patrons.
Isn’t that the Badlands nightclub’s right to choose what dress code their patrons have to follow?
It absolutely is, so you and me both INB4 fuckheads suddenly all become Very Concerned about the 1st amendment all of the sudden (butonlywhenitbenefitsthemandscreweveryoneelse).
The dress code is between the customers and the nightclub so the first amendment doesn’t matter here.
Yes, you and I know that. But I predict that all of the soon-to-be conservative legal eagles will studiously avoid that particular truth.
But don’t you see, it’s different if a business doesn’t want to bake you a cake! /s
Republicanism is incompatible with being a healthy LGBTQ person. Incompatible.
Conservatism is the flawed ideology that inequality is preferable to progress.
“the test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function.”
Yep. These Log Cabiners must be real galaxy brains…
That’s literally the definition of cognitive dissonance. And it’s a hallmark of literal brainwashing. Like, for real this is a common tactic in cults. I outta know, for what it’s worth, cause I grew up Mormon. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah I’ve heard this quote so much and then when I read this article I suddenly realized the quote is dumb haha. I wonder if these folks were indoctrinated republican from a young age? My guess is probably not all of them.
MAGA merch is just nazi symbolism. Avoid them, don’t interact aside from giving them a thumbs down if you have too. Avoid their business.
They went there to start shit, and they know it. They and their lice can go find a hoedown in Visalia or something.
