Virtue-signalling so hard that she became the unemployable nigs she looks up to so much.

They teach the opposite of consequences in school and instead promote entitlement.

Boys are taught consequences. Girls are coddled and taught they can do no wrong. Depending on level of prettiness, they can live almost a decade in the real world before reality hits them hard.

Boys are mostly just taught the negative consequences of not being girls.

Oh please, there are plenty of beta losers who will bend over backwards to please the 35+ bitches. Even the fat mothers with 4 niglets from tyrone.

Well when a school's paid tens of thousands of dollars per person a semester, they'll tell the
studentcustomer whatever the fuck they want to hear.[–] PhilaFerret 1 point 12 points 13 points (+13|-1) ago
I think there's more indoctrinating going on than simply reinforcing angsty, high school idealism.

I was a bartender for 13 years and I never gave a fuck what my customers talked about....
Fucking weird that you anoint yourself hall monitor of your bar and shitbags upvoat this stupid comment. Make the fucking drinks and keep your bar clean.. THAT IS ALL

I took "aggressively" to mean "fighting words" when I read his comment.

When alcohol is involved: "no politics, no religion."
Simple, easy rule to live by. And not following it will fuck things up between people.
[–] Moose_of_Reason 0 points 9 points 9 points (+9|-0) ago
The phrase about not talking religion or politics is a gross cop-out designed to maintain the status quo, keeping people from thinking critically about issues that actually matter in society, and branding it impolite when someone is outspoken. Fuck polite society; we cannot afford that luxury anymore.
[–] PhilaFerret 0 points 5 points 5 points (+5|-0) ago (edited ago)
What is aggressive? If I am enjoying a robust political conversation, and the bartender decides politics is off the list discussions, I would leave.
Imagine if a bartender tried this in Philadelphia, where political discussion was key to our independence.
EDIT: In bars

I'd order 6 Ramos Fizz's just to spite his uppity ass.

I think a bartender doing this in philadelphia would get cheered by 99% of the bar for kicking out the conservative. Have you been there? It's cucked as fuck.
[–] WakeyWake 0 points 12 points 12 points (+12|-0) ago
Did the waitress ever ask a group of people if they were pedophiles? No. Bc She'll serve them. How about murderers? No. Bc She'll serve them. How about rapists? No. Bc She'll serve them.
Liberalism...a progressive disease. Find a cure now, it's affecting their ability to work. (For the few who still work)

North Korea is trying to deliver treatment to California. The root of the problem seems to be the jew.
Majority of the jew population resides in Israel and the U.S.

North dakotan here, yeah ND went Trump pretty hard so not serving Trump votes loses what 75% of customers?

This is legal all around. (The refusal and the firing)
You can legally discriminate based on political opinions. Statists are not a protected class.
[–] KosherHiveKicker 0 points 16 points 16 points (+16|-0) ago
She was hired to serve customers. She refused to do her job. The leftist Cunt was punted.
[–] go1dfish 0 points 6 points 6 points (+6|-0) ago
And nobody had to draw or even threaten to draw a gun or call the police.
The man got served, the woman was able to remain consistent in her own convictions and the business owner was able to run his business how he saw fit.
However if the same had happened with a "protected class" what would be different?
[–] ScreaminMime 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
He didn't say it wasn't a fireable offense, he just said it wasn't illegal.

Weighing in on a customers conversation in a negative way regardless of context or content, is about the stupidest thing you could ever do in the service industry. Do your damn job and get a manager if shit gets out of hand.
[–] Grunge 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
Yup, nothing illegal happened and it shouldn't be illegal. Glad the business owner canned her dumbass though. Serving alcohol is actually risky business, the law in a lot of states holds the waiter/bartender responsible for the actions of a drunk person, it's absurd, so if someone doesn't feel like serving someone alcohol than I completely understand that.

"I dont like Trump"
"You're fired"
Bet she will trie to whore it out for shekels and complain how racist sexist it was and how she was right all along about Trump being bad for jobs.
[–] KosherHiveKicker 0 points 6 points 6 points (+6|-0) ago (edited ago)
She can attempt to improperly conflate the two. But the courts will bitch-slap her with the truth.
The fucking cunt refused to do her job.... to serve customers. She was fired for not doing her job.
There is a difference.

I know that, you know that, but lefties that are this deep are retards.
