"It was a beautiful day. There was a lot of people enjoying their Sunday brunch, lunch," he said. "I've been in the restaurant a lot of times. They're really good people. I know the owners. I'll be there again.

it was a long wait, and I decided to leave because my ankle was hurt at the time. I couldn't stand there."

People are just too damn sensitive these days.

You always had your cranks even back a few years but it isn't anything like today.

Or maybe it is just covered more in the media?

The article was satire was it not?

"as a matter of natural law, there is always an open table for beloved superstars who win home playoff games in dramatic fashion. Under the circumstances, Giannis Antetokounmpo is to be given the first and best available accommodations, and if none are open at the moment he crosses the restaurant's threshold, seated customers are to be politely asked to eat their burritos while standing at the bar, or to give their half-eaten burritos to Giannis Antetokounmpo, if he so desires."

The right needs to lighten up

Satirical or not, that's not how many leftist rags portrayed the issue by posting headlines such as:

Giannis Antetokounmpo Can Hit A Game-Winner, Can't Get A Damn Table At Milwaukee Restaurant



NO TACOS FOR TIP-INS: Giannis Antetokounmpo was ready to celebrate with a victory dinner after a hard fought win against the Boston Celtics.

But there was no preferential treatment for the Milwaukee Bucks superstar — and people were upset he had to wait for a table.

Giannis Antetokounmpo ignored at a Milwaukee Mexican Restaurant after a Bucks win.

Many which have been removed or "updated".  The bottom line is that the first reaction was to scream racism before knowing the truth.

The bottom line was the article was written tongue in cheek. Nothing to do with racism.

Hey Right Wingers, You should take Steven Bannon's "advices" and accept the your racism and wear it as a badge of honor

Quote
Former Donald Trump advisor Steve Bannon has told a far-right gathering in France that accusations of racism should be considered a "badge of honor."

"Let them call you racists," the one-time White House chief strategist said at a National Front Party conference in Lille on Saturday.

"Let them call you xenophobes. Let them call you nativists. Wear it as a badge of honor," Bannon added as he spoke in front of an unfurled American flag.

Weird how you forgot to highlight the part where he said "accusations of racism" instead choosing to manipulate his words by starting with the word racism. Pretty telling of liberals and their media kinfolk.

"Weird" is as far as I got, and I agree with you

not intentional on my part and does it really make any difference since you can clearly read the entire thing

hey you Right Winger - "you should accept the accusations of racism.  Let them call you a racist and wear it as a badge of honor"

Feel better now?

yep, he just says to wear them as a badge of honor

that's completely different from accepting them

when you wear something as a badge of honor you're actually rejecting it

right?

Their being called racists is incorrect. That negates the argument right there. Just because people don't want foreigners flooding their country doesn't make them racists. To call someone racist for having that view is incorrect.

Do racists even realize they're racists? Or do they think they are just against immigration, minorities for noble reasons and racists don't really exist or they've never seen one . I know people who have said to me "I'm not racist but I don't want a black moving in next to me". And I think to myself "If you're not racist, what would make someone racist?"

If it is so self evident you should be able to provide a simple, short-and-sweet answer/explanation.

It's no different than asking "Why is murder bad?" or "Prove light exists" or "Why can't I marry my sister"
