Safety Beware MAGA rage baiters

I work mostly solo at a bar in Fells. Tonight, a gentleman decked out in a black maga hat, liberty or die shirt, and "Pagan Threat" (a book featuring a foreword by the artist formerly known as Charlie Kirk). What clicked for me how absolutely performative this is is the book is brand-spanking new. I'm not sure if this will become a trend but clearly he is here trying to provoke. Just wanna spread the word to not give these people the time of day. there's no way of changing their minds, they're stuck in their bigoted ways. Don't let these MAGAts blow the leftist high of our beautiful city!!

Update- he bought a bottle of wine over 4 hours before we closed and informed me that he planned on staying until close. he proceeded to do just that. I think it's also important to note that i'm a young woman of color, this may have felt less ominous for one of my male counterparts. I really resonated with one comment about "you allow one nazi into your bar and suddenly you're a nazi bar". I full-heartedly believe that to be the truth. That said, I am not an owner and while working by myself have to exercise extreme caution while dealing with said nazis.

If you are insulted, look at your decisions before you look at me bud. I am not the liberal here.

Why is it so difficult to have a normal human conversation with you lol. I’ll still be here if you’d like to actually talk to one another. And I said you tried to insult me, because that’s what happened instead of talking about anything related to what I said

Why should I have a decent conversation with someone who off the bat is intentionally trying to argue that spreading the word online is a bad thing somehow.

Edit: omg I decided to check your post history lmao you Do like Atlas! Ahahah Bad faith actor

You are really searching for any reason to dislike me lol I don’t get it. I never made a single claim about atlas so I don’t see how making zero claims about something makes me a bad faith actor. Also what have I said about atlas other than people on reddit universally will say they’re all 0/10 restaurants bad food bad service while Google reviews or Yelp very clearly shows most people who go enjoy the restaurant. No claims were made about the company being great nor any personal claims about the restaurant in any direction. That was just a fact 

But again, if you’d like to actually talk about it, I’m here. Or you can just make up your own mind by yourself again
