Not only is the (ex-)barista delusional, he's militant about it

The story:

On Wednesday, a transgender barista booted a young conservative woman from a coffee shop in Lincoln, Neb., attacking her for her political principles. The coffee shop later apologized to the conservative woman and fired the impolite barista — in a move the barista interpreted as evidence of discrimination against transgender people.

"This morning, I was asked to leave Cultiva Coffee and never come back because of my conservative principles," Marilyn Synek, a communications specialist at the Nebraska Family Alliance, wrote on Facebook. Synek had a weekly tradition of eating breakfast at Cultiva. Yet on Wednesday, a barista attacked her for her political views, kicking her out of the shop.

"Today, an employee of the shop approached me and said, 'Marilyn Synek! I didn’t recognize you until now, but I just realized who you are, what you stand for, and the work you do. You are f****** bigoted trash, and we do not want you in our restaurant. Over 80% of the people who work here are queer. You are not f****** wanted in our restaurant, so get out and don’t come back! If you do try to come back, we will all refuse any service to you.' The cafe was busy with other customers who watched the incident transpire," Synek wrote.

"I’ve never broadcasted my political opinions in the shop before, and I have always treated the employees of Cultiva with respect and courtesy. While we, as Americans, can disagree politically, it is very important to maintain civility when interacting with people who hold different world views. Tolerance goes both ways, and the division in our current political climate will perpetuate if we neglect basic civility," she concluded.

Cultiva owners Jason Anderson and Sharon Grossman posted a statementannouncing that the barista had been fired for mistreating a customer. They admitted that there was an incident "wherein an employee lashed out at a customer over political/religious beliefs."

"The employee was fired almost immediately, and the rest of the day has been spent apologizing to the customer, a mention on national talk radio, fielding threatening phone calls and nasty emails, talking to the newspaper, receiving odd and sometimes clearly fake reviews on Facebook, a bit of soft doxxing on Twitter and the like. Ugliness has come from all corners of the political spectrum, interestingly enough," the owners wrote. 'Thankfully some people have made very nice comments and come to our defense as well. We appreciate you!" 

Three points:

• Per the title of this post, Natalie Weiss, the militantly delusional ex-barista, is a he. Every cell in his body is characterized by male DNA. 
• As is characteristic of these situations in 2019 post-America, the ugliness didn't stop with the immediate situation being resolved. Fake reviews, soft doxxing and nasty emails now go with the territory.
• The Nebraska Family Alliance is doing some excellent work in the areas of protecting religious freedom, promoting the understanding of real marriage - that is, one man and one woman, and protecting unborn people. 

A heads up: There is a website dedicated to fighting the Alliance that has a very similar URL and is clearly trying to divert traffic from the actual Alliance page. The link above is the real deal.
