Because we ’ve apparently learned nothing and are doomed to live over the same news cycle over and over , Yelp has once again become the home for air political grievances . This time , a Canadian eating house was made the target of disconfirming reviews after the manager asked a man in a “ Make America Great Again ” chapeau to allow .
According to the CBC , the eating place in this incident was the tea parlor in Stanley Park , a popular tourist eating place . And like theRed Hen before it , the job invite wave after wave of one - star recapitulation after manager Darin Hodge turn down to serve a humans wear down Trump ’s signature lid .
Here ’s how the whole thing played out , per accounts allow for to the CBC : A man wearing a MAGA lid came into the eatery and was seat on the terrace . Hodge , the flooring manager for the shift , confronted the man and ask him to hit the hat . The man reject , saying he had a rightfield to wear it . Hodge inform him that he would n’t be served if he wear the lid , so the man leave behind .
Hodge , who had been working at the restaurant for 18 months , was fire over the incident by the Sequoia Company — the speculation capital group that have the Teahouse — for violating the business ’s “ school of thought of allowance . ”
For his part , Hodge apparently has no ruefulness in esteem to the incident . accord to the CBC , he posted on Facebook say , “ I remain firm by my decisiveness . ” He explained : “ The MAGA hat has come to represent racial discrimination , dogmatism , Islamophobia , misogyny , livid domination , [ and ] homophobia . ”
While that seems like it should be the end of the storey , it , of course , is n’t because on the internet , nothing is an isolated incident . Once word got out that a human in a MAGA hat was refused service at a eatery , the Trump backers showed up in full force to the teashop ’s Yelp page , arm with one - champion review .
Of naturally , when the Trump athletic supporter show up , so does the # Resistance . The same thing happened when the Red Hen asked White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders to leave last weekend , and the restaurant ’s Yelp pageturned into a struggle of dueling review .
In this case , though , the folks who coordinate themselves against Trump also started post one - star review — not for the eating house kick out the man in the MAGA hat , but for firing the coach who made the decision to refuse help .
Anyway , the Teahouse ’s pageboy is in cleanup mode as Yelp wreak to withdraw all of the politically charged reviews . So congratulations to everyone necessitate : you action nothing at all , other than to make the problem some poor moderator at Yelp a little harder than it want to be .
