No neutral on a moving train. You serve him or don't, either way you've taken a stand that no amount of corp speak can mitigate.
Refusing to serve someone for no reason than their political standing is engaging in political activity and affiliations lmfao.
Serving a fascist a burger doesn’t make you a fascist, but not serving them for any other reason makes your statement clear.
Serving a fascist turns your establishment into a “safe space for snowflakes”
You are absolutely and completely wrong
Plausible deniability is definitely a thing. I couldn't pick Bovino out of a lineup personally, so if some jerkoff in a red sweater (which appears to be the case there.) got some food and drinks at a place I ran I wouldn't think about it at all.
Once it comes to light that red sweater jerkoff is King Megadick of Turd Mountain (Like him posting about eating with the boys at my place on Instagram or whatev.), then that plausible deniability is lost and now the place is either the place that knowingly served King Megadick, or the one that kicked his dumb ass out. One of those will (rightly) cause a huge drop in business and maybe employees.
Lots of nuance for “we are nazis” or “we throw nazis to the curb”
You can put as many pretty words as you want on this, but one of those two statuses are all anyone cares about
Yes, life includes nuance…. And if you can’t account for that, you’re just a downright terrible person. Full stop.
Because being against Nazis is "akshually nuanced"? Fuck off, dude.
Ad hominem attacks are for the weak
Funny how the ones that feel the need to say this, are the ones guilty of it. You are the only one being fallacious here dude.
Mine wasn’t directed at anyone, if you feel you lack nuance and it was directed at you, that’s on you. It wasn’t a personal attack. Do you not know what ad hominem means?
Hey look, a sealion! Wow!
How so? A customer is just a number until they make an issue. Anything else is just prejudice and bias, which makes you a terrible person also.
You’re expecting way too much out of people flipping burgers lmfao.
There’s also a pretty big difference between serving someone an order and whatever you think else is being done. Can you explain better please?
Intolerance for the intolerant is a thing.
If you go around hating people for things they can't change (like where they're from, where they were born, colour of their skin, accent etc), then you're a shit person and deserve being removed from being around decent people who accept people for who they are.
You choose to be a cunt.
Not to you I can’t
Best of luck
I thought you said ad hominem attacks are for the weak? Nice to know you don’t actually practice what you preach.
Fascists deserve no quarter.
If you see 6 people eating lunch with a nazi... You're actually looking at 7 nazis.
Frankly. If I were marching for a cause, and saw a bunch of white hoods or nazi flags going with me, you bet your ass I'd stop what I was doing and think real hard about being in that movement. The fact that republicans don't kick them out is very telling.
If I had a business, I sure as fuck wouldn't serve ICE, DHS, DOGE, nazis, klansmen, and republican politicians.
What does that got to do with serving or waiting on them? You’re arguing an entirely different thing here, and that’s the point that’s trying to be made. Way to fuck that up.
That’s an entirely different scenario, and I wholly agree with that one.
Life has nuance, don’t be a terrible person yourself by missing it.
The nuance is if you don't know they are nazis. Once you know that they are nazis, and that they aggressively advocate for the extermination of other humans based on core immutable characteristics of those persons, then they have forfeited any expectation of being treated decently in any establishment.
You want nuance? Then show me a good nazi. Show me a Nazi that advocated for emptying the concentration camps and giving the prisoners back their homes, property, and restitution for their murdered family.
Fuck all nazis. Fuck all klansmen. Fuck all republicans who are still defending this fascist, racist, pedophile-ridden administration. Fucking MTG bowed out, the Jewish Space Lasers lady was finally like "woah, you guys have gone too far." Anyone who isn't actively shunning them at this point is tacitly supporting them.

I don't know how much of that dude I agree with, but life does have nuance. Your last paragraph is spot on though.
There's no room for knowingly serving Nazis.
He quit being a nazi almost 10 years before he started issuing falsified work permits and saving people from the Holocaust.
I'll concede that you technically found a nazi that was arguably a good person, but he also quickly stopped being a nazi when it became clear what the nazi party was planning to do. Plus, being a nazi, or klansmen, or a Republican is a choice, you can literally stop doing that shit at anytime.
You can definetly stop being a Nazi which this guy did. I'll never turn away someone that reflects on their positions and decides to be better. This also doesn't absolve actions. If you found me a Nazi that was rounding people up early war that then had a change of heart and helped people they still need punishment. Maybe lesser than those who continued with the atrocities.
But no changing your mind after you're in trouble for your actions.
I'm pragmatic. I'm okay with serving fascists, but the only food on the menu is a knuckle sandwich.
Could not have a worse take than this.
