Yeah. I get it. As a progressive, I don’t go to any business that proudly flies a Trump flag. I don’t trust that they will rationally think a problem through and I would have deep concerns about their decision making skills. Plus, the fact that it’s inappropriate to discuss politics at work, yet they feel it’s acceptable to back a political candidate? It’s repulsive.

I completely disagree as a Trump voter, I have no problem patronizing a company that has or espouses different political beliefs than mine. I agree it’s kinda weird for a company to put up a political flag like a MAGA flag or a pride flag, but hey, tolerance is a good thing so if I like the product I’ll support the business.

That said this is a ridiculous overreaction to a business wanting to cater the president. The backlash sort of shows how off the chain some of these Trump haters really are (not that we needed another reminder lol)

People on your side are literally advocating hatred of minorities, the reduction of rights for women, and the overthrow of our Democracy. Our two sides are not the same. If your party platform has a different take on education, border security, or the economy…then that’s one thing, but when they are literally trying to removed Public Education to dumb down the average worker, dismantle our social security, and strip the rights of our people how is that “the same”? Why should anyone on the left be “tolerant” to that hatred?

I’m not trying to attack you, I’m down for a legitimate discussion here, because I’m sure you have passionate reasons for voting the way you did, and I’d like to understand where the disconnect is here…

@Alteon examples?

I'm personally not on the Trump side, but I see them literally advocating acceptance and love for minorities, encouragement of rights for women, and the importance of Democracy, literally Every. Single. Day.

Sounds like you've been lied to.

I'm sorry for that.
