Right-wingers: "Companies should be able to have whatever policies they want, w/o government interference. It's PRIVATE enterprise!"

Also right-wingers: "How dare Costco make me wear a mask! That's tyranny!"

Translation: We just meant companies should be able to fire the gays

Exactly spot on...
The tyranny only exists when a company seeks to exert control over THEIR behaviours, not when they want to deny certain communities opportunities, or when they try and deny coverage for birth control etc et al. They are such self entitled privileged whiny wankers. They are exhausting.

Don't want to wear a face mask. Then...

1. Don't tell me what those damned scientists think is safe, just get my latte NOW!

[JI7]

2. Being Right Wing in the US is all about resentment of others

even their economic positions isn't really based on economic policy itself but about resentment that blacks, gays, mexicans etc not get something.

3. Yeah dictate birth control or lack thereof on your private parts but not masks for public safety

Why are these perverts always trying to get in our bedrooms?

5. While we're on the subject of tyranny

Forget the mask, what's the obsession with shoes and shirts?

[SammyWinstonJack]

8. No shirt No shoes No mask No service. They'd never get it and still throw a hissy fit.

know it, live it.

6. Good! Keep these rabid people out to protect the rest of us.

7. Also too stupid to know what is the definition of "tyranny."

It requires a government or ruler of some sort, neither of which Costco falls under. What Costco is doing is no different than someone asking you to take off your dirty shoes when you enter their home.

9. Authoritarian types. "It's my way or the highway" when they're in charge. It's "you're not the

boss of me" like a snotty little kid, when someone is telling them what to do. I've seen it over and over.

10. Irony: Wing-Nuts Fussing About Dress Requirements

I’m old enough to remember contemporary right-wingers screaming about slovenly hippies and claiming that shop-keepers has every right to keep those dirty hippies out of their stores and cafes.

My, how rhetoric and attitudes have changed in this post-Walmart world.

[niyad]

15. Don't forget the rwnj's screaming about hippies wearing thr flag. Now look at them.

[Vogon_Glory]

20. How can we forget that?

I suspect that we’re probably within a decade or two of each other age wise. If a period nut -job had seen a contemporary (ie 2020AD) actress or pin-up girl in a Stars and Stripes blouse or swimsuit, the explosion would have rivaled some of the big nuclear tests in Nevada back in the 1950’s.

21. I suspect that you are correct. I am fortunate that I rarely encounter these covidiots and

reichwingers these days, as they tend to live in other areas of fundieville.keeps my blood pressure down.

11. The continuing right wing mantra

“something is only a problem when it happens to me. Fuck everyone else”

[elias7]

12. Can't use a private enterprise argument when we bail them out every downturn

[catbyte]

13. I joined Costco last night. I wonder how their protests went when the "No Shirts, No Shoes, No

Service" rule was instituted in restaurants? Smug, selfish, entitled assholes.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

14. Then the Rignt-Wingers can go to Walmart.....

Where wearing a mask and Social Distancing is not required, unless I am missing something here.

Was in one a few weeks ago to buy thread. None to be had. People were not wearing masks, but I was, including gloves.

[niyad]

17. At a local Wally World here, a friend who shops there told me all the employees were masked, as

we're almost all the customers. Observing social distancing. Have no idea about the other wally worlds in town.
