> Probably the worst is confusing the US Military with a coffeeshop customer. At most they'd be the supplier or employer, and like I said you're free not to buy from or work with people you don't like. That was never in doubt, not in this conversation nor in most conversations. We're talking about canceling customers here. Or employees, for that matter.
Again, there isn't really a difference except which side of a business contract does the cancelling.
> Second is conflating things that affect a businesses operation in concrete ways with abstract ethical transgressions. They're very different things. Half the US population voted for Trump, but I doubt you'll find a handful to support shitting in stores, or opening plane doors during flight. That's not a small difference, it's a 4-5 digits difference.
I don't see why one of those is supposed to be some secret protected class. If you vote fascist, you ought to be thrown in jail IMO but that's off topic. A business should very well be allowed to deny supporting fascist customers. It doesn't matter how well supported an action was, a business should have the right to deny business to a customer or employee at will.
