Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

I guarantee they are infuriated that they had to pretend to be sorry because of blowback.

Behind the scenes, it's probably all, "fucking snowflakes" bullshit.

Reading through their reviews they seem to have some serious problems with customer service regularly. Most views say the food was great all the negative reviews say they got yelled at by the staff, who are mostly family of the chef/owner about something they didn't except, they yelled at a group that wanted to order from outside because they had a dog with them, yelled at a man who asked to use the restroom, yelled at a family for going to the restroom before ordering after being seated, they had small kids, yelled at someone for asking who the current owner was, in it seems like they do OK food, but really don't care for customers all that much.

I’ve worked at a couple of Mom & Pop places in the south during my youth, and generally they were terrible with money, racist, and tried avoiding taxes any way they could.

Small sample size with a sprinkle of confirmation bias on my end, but there are usually signs.

Always need help? Discount on cash purchases? Making the customer pay the credit card transaction fee?

There are many others, but those are generally the biggest ones where management is just interested in customer sympathy and the bottom line.

Nettie Yeager compared the promotion to letting kids eat free. She called on lesbians to remember what the Bible says about same-sex relationships in a post that's no longer visible to the public. And she later posted a photo of her derriere in boyshorts while wearing a shirt that reads "f*** off" with the caption "Kiss My Straight Married 50yr. Old A**..."

Yeah, these people just think it’s okay to say the hateful shit out loud (much less believe it), and they can get fucked. Live with your idiocy.

We NEED an authoritative source for trump supporting businesses. I know there’s goodsuniteus, but I didn’t like that they were harvesting data. It just needs to be a text file.

Shawn Dixon “Woke” employees are toxic for the workplace. 2d

Author Darwell Yeager III Shawn Dixon yep real bad apples 2d

Mechelle Yeager Shawn Dixon they toxic to the earth....

She's in no position to accuse others of being hateful to things they don't understand.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

compared the promotion to letting kids eat free I hope that poor asian woman on her page quit after all this. If Yeager is hating on LGBTQ people she will turn on anybody that is not white.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Some of the most bigoted people I've ever met have been Asian. Bigotry is not exclusive to whites.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

You do have a point.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 days ago (3 children)

“Can produce a child couple, we'll give you something free.”

Guess straight couples are excluded too if one of them is infertile.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Were they planning on discriminating against old people too?

Of course not, the cruelty is the point.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

If HitlerPig told them to, they would. The way they are threatening Social Security/ Medicare/ Medicaid, etc., MAGA may be at war with old people soon, then watch these MAGA Traitors turn on them, too.

What about Throuples?

It would be hilarious for 2 women to put pillows under their shirts, and go in with a man, and say "We're a Throuple, and both of my wives are pregnant, we want our free stuff," and see what happens.

Damn, so polygamous families get ultra discounts?

“i’m sorry if you got offended, im not perfect!” 🤮

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

''Maybe I was just joking, who could ever know for sure?'' She said her parents raised her with morals, but apparently grasping at what the word ''joke'' means was out of their wheelhouse.

So probably good to avoid the Darwell's Happiness Cafe in Long Beach!

After receiving backlash online, Darwell Yeager said people are against him for being an outspoken conservative and he won't be "bullied" by the left.

So he agrees that the Venn diagram between "outspoken conservatives" and "bigots" is a circle.

"I would like to apologize to all my friends. If I wrote or said something that offended you... I'm not perfect... I say thing people don't understand, misread , misunderstood, jokes maybe I shouldn't say, get upset and say something I should have thought twice before saying.. I'm not perfect and I get my feelings hurt too. Not always right. But I'm human too.. I'm truly Sorry if you got offended or misunderstood something not meant to hurt anyone....." she posted.

"Sorry, not sorry."

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

He OBVIOUSLY didn't Right that because Conservatives dont CARE about Feelings! Fuck Your Feelings! Some LOSER LESBO probably FORCED him to Right that!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

It's the exact reason you hear assholes complaining that "conservatives are censored".

Oh? Which "conservative" value was censored? Was it the bigotry?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

He apologized to all his friends, none of whom were probably offended by his promotion.

He needs to be apologizing to the people he offended, as empty as it would be.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 days ago

"You misunderstood my bigotry as hurtful." Not "I understand my views were bigoted and therefore hurtful."

This place was on Diners Drive ins and Dives a while back, I went there to check it out just because of that, they had some good crawfish etouffe but that’s where it stopped. The place was dirty and old feeling and the staff was very trashy at that time, I see now why.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

My first job was at a restaurant that was on DD&D. It was definitely the latter lol. Very definition of a greasy spoon.

Good food. Probably skirted a lot of health codes. But good food nonetheless.

Oh, no. I hope this doesn't affect their Google ratings. 😱

Google protects Fascists; they'll be fine.
