"We Welcome the Woke!"

If I was the CEO of a major retailer or restaurant chain being boycotted by the MAGAloons, I would display a giant "We Welcome the Woke" banner in front of all of my business outlets.

I've no doubt that millions of customers would enjoy shopping in a store where the aisles are free of RWers having screaming fits at the sight of a rainbow T-shirt. Imagine the joy of having a meal in complete peace and quiet, without the fear of a MAGA-hat-wearing lunatic having a mental meltdown over a dark-skinned server with a foreign accent.

Being boycotted by the deranged is a badge of honour. and should be used as a marketing tool. If the RWers have already decided not to patronize your business, why not advertise the fact they've rendered it a MAGA-free zone?

They're now demanding boycotting Chick-fil-A! I thought that's what WE were supposed to be doing!
So, if I continue boycotting them, does that make ME a MAGAt? Or will they have NO customers at all?

Who's next - Hobby Lobby?

Evangelical assholes own it. They are so brainwashed and weak they think sky daddy with torture them forever if they support stuff like equality ,social justice,etc.which goes against thier diseased religion in thier disgusting twisted bible addled minds.

I hate that hobby lobby is the closest craft store to me ,I can walk there. I so wish it was a joann's.

Imagine sipping a starbux in peace.
Never having to be anxious a rightwing fuck is going to threaten me ,or talk shit about me cause I am trans. I would choose a woke welcoming store every time.

If one shops there, imagine not encountering any of the anti-woke crowd there.

No Target. No Walmart. No Amazon. Choices are dwindling.
