I think it was a twitter post from DailyMail reporting this as actual news that got the ball rolling on this one. They also neglected to mention that they did the same bit with a guy in a MAGA hat. They were clearly trying to deceive with their headline.

It's basically a reality TV show. They have some time to fill and can do so with reality TV cheaper than fictional shows. Probably cheaper than The Bachelor or those types of shows.

So sad that some REALLY THINK this is real life.

What’s both funny and sad is ABC’s viewers are so stupid they’ll actually think it’s real.

do you see now how you are mistaken?

This thread says a LOT more about followers of infowars, than it does viewers of ABC.

I guess what I found refreshing is that in real life, as opposed to on this board, most people found the manager to be wrong, regardless of political affiliation.
I thought the videos (apparently this guy has a Network show and everyone knew who was when the cameras came out) were very interesting.

ONLY 2 people approved of the manager (who was kicking out both MAGA & Impeach 45) clothing - and it was telling that they supported the manager almost secretly - not willing to stand up to the bully tactics. The majority of the diners openly supported the guy being bullied - to the point of walking out.

I think this is more realistic slice of life than the Hostility promoted on the TeeVee.
People are a lot more tolerant of differences than the Meltdown crowd likes to promote.

Well done.
