A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
They will lose more customers than just furries.
Although honestly it would be funny if everyone went out and bout animal costumes and just piled into the place. Just order a drink and fill every seat and doorway in there.
It would piss them off and be hilarious all at once.
They won't, you really, really, over-estimate how much people would care about weird fetishist people of which there are dozens, and how little of impact posts on the social media have on general public. And bad publicity doesn't exist, so at worst they attract more customers due to being popular meme place where people are banned for ridiculous reasons.
'weird fetishist people' really tells a lot about you.
What exactly does it tell about me?
You're a judgemental dunce.
That's not a lot.
You guys are talking like this isn’t fake. This is a joke. There’s a bunch of these, it started with “Blockbuster Nigeria” on Facebook, or at least that’s the first type of account like this I saw. This is not run by a Burger King in Moldova, 90% it’s a 14 year old shitposter in the US.
I put on my hazmat suit to bring you this:
There's something about lemmy that strongly attracts people that would take a moldovan fast food parody account so seriously.
I believe everything I hear on the Internet about Moldova, it's a fact.
My sensors must be faulty. I didn't detect this troll at all. Good spot.
Furry != people in animal suits in public.
they are called "mascots" in polite company
You really don't know Moldova, or easter Europe then. Most people don't even know about furries and their first reaction is not going to be positive. People are cautious about new and strange things and ultimately get scared of them. They look at this as preserving what is normal to them. I'm sorry, most of the world is conservative, not progressive.
No one cares? Unless you behave extremely weird at worst people assume that you are advertising something or that's some kind of attraction with costumed people for kids. Do people really go around in costumes every day and not on conventions and festivals?
Yes no one cares, but then a big company announces they will not serve people in animal costumes. Then people go - makes sense, it's weird anyway. I've never seen a person in animal costume in person, not even as a mascot or on a kid's birthday. It's just not a thing here. And I'm from Serbia, it's provably even rarer in Moldova. I would find it weird if someone explicitly said they will deny them service. It's like denying service to dinosaurs, it's odd. It is a good cheap marketing though.
They will lose more customers than just furries.
No they absolutely won't. If anything this is good PR for them.
I suppose it could be a net gain, but they most certainly will lose furries and people who support others' rights to be themselves as customers.
But yes, overall, they may gain customers. Although i can't think of a time that i have gone somewhere to eat/shop or use a service more because they discriminate against something i dont personally like.
I can think of a number of situations where i have stopped using a service because they discriminate against something i support.
they most certainly will lose furries
That's the objective
people who support others’ rights to be themselves as customers
The number of people who would boycott a restaurant over furries being banned is going to round down to zero.

As would my patience for arguing about stuff we can't usefully quantify.
Im not going to engage in that discussion.
Anyway as someone else pointed out, this is likely completely fake.
That would just help them with this what I assume is a marketing campaign? No furman har har eat McNugget.
at are stores
Fake. Only native English speakers make basic homophone mistakes. /s
Boo!!!
Are Furries Slanesh Beastmen?
Only the fun ones
Why they chose a picture of Majira is beyond me. They could have used anyone and they decided on him.
Who is Majira?
Don't know if he still makes videos, but furry yt content creator I used to watch.
I for one appreciate some Umgi finally taking an appropriate stance against the Chaos Hordes.
They have burger king there ?
I had BK in Iraq during the war. Those fuckers are everywhere.
Except AUS, kinda.
Can I have all the beast men, women, and people myself then? I don't have a fast restaurant, but I can cook, as long as I don't have to peel potatoes by hand.
