Minneapolis yoga studio anti-ICE confrontation

[Anonymous]

Anyone see the video of the yoga students surrounding two employees at the desk of a Core Power yoga studio in Minneapolis and berating them for taking down an anti-ICE sign because management hadn't approved it? They filmed it and put it online. Core Power says it has banned everyone involved from taking classes there. Crazy.

Are they government employees violating rights that are literally enshrined in the constitution?

What is the issue? If the sign wasn’t approved by the management of a private business, why is this a problem? The bigger problem is the students confronting the employees, which may be a violation of their membership contracts.

I'm the OP. ICE is acting awful, but I have a problem with this bunch ganging up on a private employer like this and then filming it for the world's consumption. Private yoga companies are under no obligation to take a stand, and the demands to do so are nauseating. Ann Bauer wrote about this in The Free Press.

And not even ganging up on the company, they were ganging up on a couple of front desk employees who probably make minimum wage. Absolutely ridiculous. And the snapping! It’s like an SNL skit.

Apparently one of the women bragged online about leaving all the weights on the floor instead of re-racking them, as some form of protest. The whole thing was absurd.

Yeah, I saw the video and found it really disturbing that the woman who filmed and posted it saw herself as the "good guy" in that situation. Like bullying yoga instructors and front desk staff was some virtuous action to take. The whole thing was wild.

Right wingers politicized making cakes and refusing service to others. Keep that in mind.

This from the people that gave us the trigger alert and the micro aggression?

MAGA (which I despise) simply adopted and co-opted the grievance language of the progressives.

Peas in a pod.

I read her article about it in the Free Press too.

Typical nasty white liberal behavior

So true.

This also reminded me of a post from a couple days ago - https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1313202.page

This is why people don't discuss politics among friends anymore. Because we all have friends/acquaintances who are are just like those Yoga protestors and how can you have a conversation with them?

NP
I don’t have friends like that. And you are OBSESSED with people not discussing politics. Why?
