What is so complicated about this cake nonsense? I'll use the word nazi a lot so the slow kids understand.

Ever been to a brothel? Can’t find a man to go gay for pay at a brothel would be like finding a non pervert priest at the Vatican. Few and far between.

If one sex worker won’t go gay for pay, others will line up for it.

I'm not saying that I disagree with the Baker refusing, but the actual cake asked for seems relevant/interesting:

In June 2017, Colorado lawyer Autumn Scardina called Masterpiece Cakeshop to request a custom cake that was blue on the outside and pink on the inside.

The occasion, Scardina told the bakery’s employees, was to celebrate her birthday, as well as the seventh anniversary of the day she had come out as transgender.

Looks like the 'tranny cake' was basically just a pink cake with blue icing, that people probably wouldn't think twice about without the accompanying transgender story.

She also placed the order on the day the Supreme Court decision came down.

I don’t like this whole cake mess or the outcome of the court case but this seems like she’s just looking for trouble and public outrage.

It's absolutely silly and I actually think the baker is a cunt w/ a money allergy personally. In my mind his reasoning doesn't really matter. It's about requiring only one specific group to cater to another. There's no shortage of ideologies and beliefs in the world. The problem w/ deeming something like this discriminatory is that there isn't equality and there's no end. I'm sure at some point in the past 40 years some priest would have argued that the very mention of gay marriage is hate speech and discrimination against the church. I'm sure in his mind he would have been right. Would we even be having the conversation if an orthodox priest who requested an offensive bible quote referencing homosexuality as a sin from a gay baker b/c this weeks sermon is about that particular sin? That's the list that will never end as their is no shortage of ideologies or assholes in the world. By doing this you ask the government to instill a hierarchy of victimhood. Whichever group can think up more ways to be offended exerts wins as they'll be able to leverage the govt more effectively against other groups. The very notion breeds inequality.

The beauty of something like the fair housing act is that everyone has the same simple set of rules that serve the rest equally well. It promotes equality by not letting one group dictate where another can live. It preserves the individual rights of all. Key word being individual.

When you approach the problem on a specific group by group basis you inevitably create constantly shifting inequality between groups. It really ties in well w/ Jordan Peterson's thought on enforced pronoun usage.

The bottom line is there's no law against following beliefs that cause no actual harm to others. Let's face it though. This guy is famous now and the cake was always a shit test b/c it came w/ a story. Had he made it there would be social media posts everywhere about hows he's a hypocrite and jokes that he prefers trannies. He's getting harassed. Amazing how the LGBT community never tries this someplace like Dearborn Michigan.

A nazi goes to buy a house that has the star of david painted on it. He wants the house but doesn't want it as is. Is the nazi being discriminated against b/c he can't force the jew to paint over it for him so the house is to his specifications?

Find me a jew that wouldn't cover up his religion to make a sale, and I'll show you a man that isn't even remotely jewish.

Anyways, no one should be forced to bake cakes. Its authoritarian nonsense, and the only people who would support such a thing are legitimate fascists that don't deserve cake.

Starting in the early 1990's with the Politically Correct censorship movement, the Communist concept of Hate Speech is being promoted and embraced in the United States.

What is so complicated about this cake nonsense? I'll use the word nazi a lot so the slow kids understand.
