We don't tolerate intolerance.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 65 points 5 months ago (1 children)

This is the correct response.

[–] Kayday@lemmy.world 22 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Correct. Tolerance is a social contract, not a moral absolute.

[–] Nualkris@lemm.ee 80 points 5 months ago

A tolerant society must be intolerant of intolerance.

I like how laughter erupts when they said "this is discrimination"

The disconnect is amazing.

Did she really pull the "my token black friend" card?

If Idiocracy was prophecy, why not Get Out..?

[–] SereneSadie@lemmy.myserv.one 13 points 5 months ago

Idiocracy runs on the assumption smart people would plan and prepare to save the stupid people down the line. Not rule them in cyberfeudalism. I wouldn't call it prophetic personally.

Get Out is a spotlight on existing problems. That have existed for a long time, and will likely continue to exist.

Getting a lot of miles out of this screenshot.

Tolerance doesn't exist for groups that are naturally intolerant, it's hilarious that they expect to be treated differently than they've sued and abused the system to be allowed to do to others

Chatterbox sounds like a nice place. If I'm ever in Indy, I'll def. stop by for a beer, and conversation. Oooh, and I just looked they have Jazz music. I hope they continue for another 100 years!!

"Come for the jazz, conversation, drinks, Jamaican patties and oven-baked pizzas, as well as a historical trip into one of the rare holdouts in downtown Indianapolis … a bar that's been welcoming regulars and visitors since 1896."

Trump has cancelled discrimination laws, get the fuck out of bars and everywhere else

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 5 months ago

they're right and they should say it. fascists have no place in queer spaces.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 27 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It's actually legal to discriminate based on political party so

Get not-fucked idiots.

[–] bhamlin@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

That, and fascists aren't a legally protected class.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 26 points 5 months ago

But also, the man that was with me was an African American male. He was wearing a Trump hat.

That person should be kicked out of the bar just for being terminally stupid.

[–] MeaanBeaan@lemmy.world 25 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Your political beliefs are not a protected group. Y'all can go fuck yourselves.

[–] thewitcherstits@lemm.ee 7 points 5 months ago

lol they got rid of protected groups anyway! They don’t realize we can tell them to get out just as easily as they can tell us.

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 22 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

These are the say people that support doctors and pharmacists for not treating people they don't like. They are the ones that support cake shops from making gay cakes.

They are all very familiar with wanting the ability to discriminate. But they don't expect that they will be on the other side of it.

[–] LoamImprovement@beehaw.org 18 points 5 months ago

If the bar lets Nazis in, it's a Nazi bar. Good on them for refusing to be a Nazi bar.

[–] blackstampede@sh.itjust.works 17 points 5 months ago

Oh noooooo. Anyway...

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 17 points 5 months ago

I would patronize this establishment if I could.

[–] Furbag@lemmy.world 12 points 5 months ago

Fuck MAGA cunts. They need to be banned everywhere.

[–] Tmask@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago

"Indianapolis resident Elise Hensley"

Dumb bitch fucking posted it on Facebook. I hope she gets fired for her hateful ways, 'cause wherever she's working supports nazis.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago (1 children)

My brain dead ass read "bar", as-in, like.. bar association.

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 5 months ago

The Gay Lawyers Bar Association, their suits would be the greatest ones in every court room as they defend their clients from bigotry and stupid laws.
