Get woke, go broke strikes again.
A bar in Bloomington, Indiana revealed it is losing customers after sending a nasty message to guests regarding Bud Light’s partnership with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
An Indiana bar has vowed to kick out customers who “voice their concerns” about Bud Light teaming up with Dylan Mulvaney.
Siding with Bud Light over customers is a VERY stupid decision!https://t.co/mlX03QGClH

The Fairfax Bar and Grill sent this missive on Facebook to guests, implying not only that they are possibly bigoted but that dissent on Bud Light’s disastrous partnership with Mulvaney will not be tolerated.
We are tired of all of the hate. We are very open to debate and discussion and it’s truly a shame that we can’t have open conversations about this important political and cultural topic. Bars, in our opinion, exist as public spaces where ideas should be exchanged.
Unfortunately due to all of the bigotry and hatred that has surfaced around the Bud Light controversy any patron wanting to voice their concerns about the issue will be immediately asked to pay their bill and leave our establishment
None of this should come as a surprise because Bud Light sales have collapsed all over America as the Gateway Pundit reported. Rival beer brands have gained at their expense.
Fox News reported:
The Fairfax Bar and Grill in Indiana alienated some of its patrons after it condemned them for criticizing Bud Light’s association with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney,
Bud Light and its parent company Anheuser-Busch received backlash for partnering with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney. The beer maker ignited a firestorm earlier this month when it celebrated Mulvaney’s “365 Days of Girlhood,” by sending Mulvaney custom-made cans featuring the influencer’s face. Millions of Americans have responded by boycotting brands associated with Bud Light and Anheuser-Busch. As of Monday, Bud Light’s market share for the latest week lost almost the same amount as rivals like Miller Lite and Coors Light gained, according to a report from Beer Business Daily.
However, one venue in Bloomington, Indiana has made headlines with a contradictory message calling for “open conversations” about the subject, yet demanding those who disagree to “leave” their establishment.
“We are tired of all of the hate. We are very open to debate and discussion and it’s truly a shame that we can’t have open conversations about this important political and cultural topic. Bars, in our opinion, exist as public spaces where ideas should be exchanged,” The Fairfax Bar and Grill wrote in a Facebook post. “Unfortunately due to all of the bigotry and hatred that has surfaced around the Bud Light controversy any patron wanting to voice their concerns about the issue will be immediately asked to pay their bill and leave our establishment.”
WISHTV writer Adam Pinsker spoke to the bar’s owner McKinley Minniefield.
“We were just dealing with a lot of hate speech, and people being uncomfortable. My bartenders were aggravated and we had customers that were leaving,” he told the news outlet.
He added, “We’re a local dive bar in southern Indiana, there’s a lot of ideas that tossed around here, but I’ve never dealt with anything recently that was so overtly hateful.”
On Wednesday, the bar’s Facebook page released a follow-up statement on the backlash it has received.
“While the response here has been overwhelmingly positive and supportive, it’s time to reiterate why we took a stand against hate speech. In the last two weeks since sharing a post stating that we will not tolerate intolerance, our social media has been flooded with blatantly transphobic, homophobic and racist comments,” the bar’s social media declared.
“We are all inclusive and welcome all kindhearted customers. After making that post, the comments on every post since include hate speech saying that transgender people are mentally ill, biological women are being erased, and showing a plethora of disgusting memes.” It later warned, “Hate has no place at The Fairfax.”
The bar then claimed that it needs more patrons to replace the clientele it has lost.
“Thank you to all of you for supporting our establishment. With the departure of some of our regulars, we have needed new clientele, and you have answered. I’m not gonna lie, we still need more of you right now,” the page said. “Please continue to consider supporting us. It’s gonna be a great year of friendship, food, drinks and live music!”
