This is the kind of dumb nonsense that lights a fire under people and encourages them to go to George’s instead of boycotting them.
So this woman makes an ant of of a moll hill and can’t understand why it’s called a China virus. Because of its origins. It’s where it came from. It’s not a knock on the people. It’s a knock on the country. But again, people are so enraged with TDS, they think it’s all about trying to offend the chinaman.
So she’s upset that he called it the China flu, but would be ok with it being called the Wuhan flu: What in gods name is the difference???
People always ask “how did Trump win???!”
This is how Trump won. The more people throw fits over nonsense like this and the more people get their feelings hurt, the wider the margin Trumps popularity grows.

This isn't really political though. The virus was caused by (and came from) China. It's 100% their fault, and 100% their virus. I don't see how anybody on either side of the political spectrum could say otherwise.
That’s not the issue. Even the libiest of libs admits it came from China. Their issue is that supposedly calling it “The China Virus” foments racism towards Asian-Americans, so they view it as intentionally offensive.

Does that not apply here
Georges only invigorated 95% of their support base

As if I needed any more reason to love George’s

You think he haphazardly made that sign with zero expectation of any reaction? He’s just sitting in there wondering what is going on?
For the his and the staff’s sake, I do hope you burger signalers all actually show up from all over and get food. I truly hope this tonedeaf moment doesn’t hurt them. I hate cancel culture.

George's primary customer base is 30-70 year old white people. I eat lunch at the Staring location occasionally and I'm often the youngest guy in there at 42

So far according to the responses on the thread...only when it falls in line with their beliefs.
Being political i dumb when your patrons are roughly 50/50, as it alienates half of your base
It wouldnt be dumb for George Strait to say "china virus", but it would be dumb for someone who had a following that was 50/50 or leaned more left. Think Dixie Chicks shitting on Bush and losing their careers over it.....
Georges is an establish of mainly old line southdowns and old line baton rouge patrons. This wont put a dent in them, just like chik fil a hating gay people didnt hurt them

People are sick of the TDS crowd perpetuating cancel culture because they must be offended 24/7. Trump very boldly told them to eat shite, and he drew a massive following because of it. The general public is sick of whiney arse liberals throwing a fit every time someone blinks in a way they don't like.
The commenters on George's Facebook are a perfect example of the losers Trump was elected to oppose.

Not agreeing with you 100% is an automatic troll? Your life must be unnecessarily difficult.

How dare they hurt China’s feelings!

Anyone offended by this sign can frick right off.

BTW-Smoky's longtime Vietnamese cook at the Highland Road location is good people and a family friend of Mrs Pimp from the old country in Ha Thien city. Smoky employs Asian people enthusiastically. Tell the Twitter ProgMob that and watch their eyes glaze over as you kill their torch and pitchfork fantasies.

Yep. This is absolutely 100% true. I would be shocked and disappointed if he responded with some half-assed apology. Losing a few SJW customers won't hurt him in the least.
