San Francisco Eatery Bans MAGA Hat-Wearing Customers

It's the theory that every online debate will eventually involve hitler at some point when one side runs out of facts

 

Some of us correctly associate the Democratic Party with Slavery, Jim Crow, the KKK, the Nazi thought police, and more recently black face racial slurs and appropriating the minority status of native Americans. We're big enough people to understand that some Democrats are just too stupid to know their legacy.

The answer is to flood the zone. Give a bunch of homeless people MAGA hats and give them bags with sandwiches and send them in to fill up the restaurant with non-paying customers.

 

You...personally....should do that

 

Unless they act in an arbitrary way, he is wrong to carry out that policy. Frankly, I think that it is funny and goofy to wear that hat, kind of like wearing a 'howdy doody' hat in public.

 

You two read like a couple of old women having a cat fight.

 

Wrong by what moral code? If he finds people who wear MAGA hats personally offensive like I do, he has every right to eject them from his place of business.

Turn it around: People can choose to respect the owner and take their idiotic hat off if they want to eat. If they insist on being offensive, that is their choice.

 

I disagree nationalism is the only way a country can exist.

"Men did not love Rome because she was great. She was great because they had loved her."
G K Chesterton

 

Patriotism is what preserves a nation. Patriotism is dedication to the principles of the Constitution. Nationalism is just tribalism.

If we throw out the Constitution and install a dictatorship, would you still be a nationalist? Would you support a tyrannical government that executes people in the streets with no judge or jury, like trump does?

 

It sounds useful. I'll have to remember that one.

 

And it's the Donald Trump supporters that are dividing the country. Some how.

The sad thing about it, I don't think they even know why they hate Donald Trump. I think it's because he's the antithesis of Barack Obama. Where Barack Obama had a cool clever calculated wit like a scalpel Donald Trump's wit is like a chainsaw. And he represents everything that they hate nationalism pride the ability to achieve things yourself.

 

no nationalism and patriotism are synonyms.

well sure. There are dictatorships that have a nationalist/patriotic populis.

A nationalist/Patriot isn't necessarily the same thing as a constitutionalist.

you mean like the left does know I'm against that that's why I voted for Trump. I despise socialism and I'll gladly die fighting against it.

 

We hate him because he incites violence, praises tyrants, uses fear as a political weapon, creates division through objectification and the exploitation of suffering, he is an obvious con man with a long history of stealing from contractors, he exploited old people with his faux university, he lies more in a week than most Presidents do in a term, he uses fake news, crackpot conspiracy theories, and intentional lies to attack the foundations of liberty at every turn - the justice system, the free press, the intelligence community, war heroes and the greatest military minds, to name a few. He does everything a dictator does. He runs the WH like a Banana Republic. He surrounds himself with crooks, thugs, and charlatans. And he is clearly a traitor who will eventually go down for his crimes.

Your crackpot hypothesis is based in pure, willful ignorance.

And the worst of it is, you will ignore everything I said and make the same crackpot argument a week from now.

 

Do you understand the distinction between dedication to a border, and dedication to principles?

That is an irrational response.

Duterte is having people executed in the streets. Trump praises that. Socialism is an economic system. You are a very confused person.

 

just because the left is violent and afraid doesn't mean Donald Trump is inciting anyting.

I don't have any problem believing you think he is the devil himself. I don't agree with you. you can be a grown up and we can talk about why we differ on things like this or you can just rant and rave about all these horrible things that Donald Trump is. I'd prefer the former but most likely I'm going to get the latter.

Alas such as the state of politics these days.

 

He specifically called for violence in his rallies. He called for the deaths of tens of thousands of innocent people - to kill the families of terrorists

He called for torture beyond waterboarding and his blood-thirsty crowd cheered. That is like something right out of Nazi German.

And even Godwin admits that sometimes analogies to Hitler and justified.

I was stating facts. You are stating opinions based in ignorance.

 

Stupid questions notwithstanding patriotism and nationalism are synonyms.

sorry but I don't trust your evaluation of what is rational or irrational.

You were raging about Trum that is an rational response.

 

No, it doesn't.

No, it isn't.

Yes, just as much as patriotism.

The Constitution has nothing to do with it. Do you have a Consitution? Yes. Does the government follow it? No. So, Patriotic and Nationalist Americans are (by default) honouring a nation without the benefit of an active Constitution. In complete opposite of what you are insinuating.

If you are a Patriotic nationalist, yes.

Like Trump? Why do you make that distinction? How many presidents can you name who did not do the same?

Both Patriotism and Nationalism are the same. It is only by your personal logic that determines whether yours is (1) the surrender of reason or (2) conscious compatibility. Most Americans are of the first type.

 

I support slaying terrorists sometimes violence is warranted.

good, end wars faster we shouldn't treat our enemies as though they are citizens of our country.

it's almost like a case of projection. You want so desperately for there to be Nazis and for them to pee that people you're against. And you're not realizing your own Nazi like Behavior.

No it's a fact that patriotism and nationalism are synonyms.

 

So you are offended by a red cap. Now what?????????????

 

You sound like a public school drop out.

 

That's great! I'll carry on getting ahead, you continue to wave your petty little flag...

 

It is entertaining, isn't it?

 

I also find them to be offensive and look at those who proudly wear them as being obtuse.

 

It truly challenges my belief in Democracy. It shows that mindless mob rule is just an election away at any moment. Even after trump is gone, we still have 40% of the country willing to make this a banana republic.

And the electoral college failed to do it's job and reject trump as unfit for office.

 

That's very insulting and pompous of you. Who do you think you are? Anyway?
