What do you think of Charlie Kirk fans abusing Starbucks baristas?

[Anonymous]

Charlie Kirk fans are going to Starbucks and giving them Charlie Kirk’s name. They then get mad and start throwing their coffee when the baristas says his name and doesn’t say the last name.

When certain obstructionists become too irritating, label them after suitable buildups as fascist or Nazi or anti-Semitic and used the prestige of anti-fascist and tolerance organisations to discredit them. In the public mind constantly associate those who oppose us with those names which already have a bad smell. The association will after enough repetition become fact in the public mind.

Well, Charlie Kirk was selling hate to the worst people in our society. What would you expect from his racist filth fans? Has the hard core Reich Wing ever done anything to make anyone think they were rational or intelligent?

How often has this happened? One in a million times?

If it's happened one in a million times I don't think anything of it. If it happens one in ten times, then it's an issue.

It's disgusting and immature. It shows their true character and I can't imagine Charlie Kirk would want to be affiliated to people like that.

[Asker]

It’s so immature and wouldn’t expect any better from people who support a racist.

His death is just boiled down to be a hot poking stick to start a fight. His whole college tour propaganda shtick so died as he lived.

i never heard of this but it is pretty funny. Calling out starbucks for being liberal. i hope they throw the coffee before paying for it.

[Asker]

Abuse is so funny. Welcome to America, where everyone forgives pedophiles. You must be so proud. 🤮

[contentious]

I've never met a conservative that goes to Starbucks. Sounds like a lame left wing psyop.

[contentious]

Starbucks specifically target markets young, urban, and affluent consumers (Champagne Socialist), with a strong emphasis on Millennials and Gen Z. Something like 15% of their customer base don't even identify as male or female. It's a woke homo establishment for left-wing extremists that like shitty low grade coffee with a lot of sugar to mask their poor decisions.

Minimum wage teenage workers get the brunt of abuse.

[Asker]

I agree with you. How sad for these people to be dealing with people that can't control their emotions and want to take out their misery on others.

[Snakeyes7]

I have never heard of this but I don't think this is a good thing if this is true.

[DrPepper12]

Excellent trolling!! Reich on!!

[Asker]

It’s not trolling, it’s news? Sorry if news upsets you!

[DrPepper12]

It's trolling. They're looking to provoke a reaction

[Anonymous]

where's your evidence of this?

[Asker]

You can do a simple Google search

[Opinion Owner]

I did and there's no evidence of any coffee being thrown

Typical right aggression.

Liberals are morons. They keep proving it.

[BarryLiverstone]

It’s disrespectful

[Asker]

It’s so sad to see. It’s just people wanting to take out their anger on innocent workers.

[BarryLiverstone]

Unfortunately both sides pull stunts like this and it hurts professionals doing their jobs

[Asker]

This country has become a political war with both sides acting out. It's a neverending battle.

[BarryLiverstone]

Actually it’s still very minor in the grand scheme of things. Sure most of the events grab headlines and we see them on the news and social media. But still over 99% of the people who live in the USA are not at war rather they live out life daily to take care of themselves and their communities

[Asker]

I know we're not at war. But it's always good to know what's going on in the community and stay informed with news especially if it involves injustices that involve people who have nothing to do with politics like Starbucks workers.

[BarryLiverstone]

All politics is local. I think lots of people tend to focus on the national stories as they sell the soap and ads. Would encourage those who want to be active in politics spend some time on local elections and those issues affecting their local and city officials

[Asker]

Thank you for your input. This is a great point because I can’t change what happens elsewhere but what I vote for locally does make a difference. I think you make a great point in not letting things that happen externally affect me because I can’t control them.

[BarryLiverstone]

You are welcome
