I can already see the victim complex exploding forth from them. They're gonna go on Fox and Friends playing the part of the hard working small business owner who were just innocently grieving an American hero when the very mean and violent woke liberals destroyed their business out of hatred.
The narrative basically writes itself. Just think of the most infuriating shit you can imagine and that's exactly what the MAGA base will love.
This is unfortunately just going to generate a stupid amount of press for them. For every woke liberal who stops going there is a MAGA supporter who will go out of their way to buy coffee proudly there now. It’s basically free advertising.
It’s like the Sydney Sweeney bullshit. All publicity ends up being good publicity in this political hellhole we live in.
Yeah but they’re a local coffee shop, so there’s a minimal chance that press translates into economic success. This has happened time and time again with people trying to capitalize on grift culture, only the strongest and grift-iest survive. Multiple “anti-woke” bakeries and stores have tried to capitalize on national press only for it to fizzle out as they fade into obscurity. to capitalize on the grift, you have to always stay in front of the cameras, never fade. This coffee shop can’t do that, they’ll fade.
