    Casualties of the election

    Here's your first casualty of the threat of a Biden administration..

    Pet Valu just announced they are closing all their US stores. 358 of them

    Boy, talk about faith in this new admin to lead them into the next phase of prosperity.

    petvalu is that new place that popped up and is the ONE single place I've been thrown out of for mask refusal. fuck these people, I told them when I was leaving the store that I was going to laugh when they went out of business, and now here's reality coming for them

    makes me want to wait until they put up the sign that they're closing and I'll go open the door and ask if they're glad they refused customers during the hoax

    You're insane to be happy about 350 American stores closing because you got told to wear a fucking mask that they were mandated by the government to tell you to do.

    I'm perfectly sane for calling bullshit on mask hysteria, and I'm perfectly sane for laughing at a company that as a whole decided to refuse business based on whether or not someone was willing to be a sheep or not. Stimulus response, what was asked for was what was given. Its one thing if they werent hacking away at their own bottom line by refusing people's money, but when that's precisely what happened, I have zero sympathy.

    Pretty much every other store around here puts the sign up and calls it good, because they know the mask orders carried no actual legal weight. (even thought a lot of people acted as though they did)

    Casualty of the election? After perusing the article, it looks to me that it's more like a casualty of the policies of the pandemic.

    No you're not.. You're an asshole and acting like a petulant child because this business won't defy state orders and risk forced closure to defend your fuckin' craziness.

    As I suspect, with the current news that Biden will most likely be the next president they have figured with the new tax cuts being reversed and the even tighter covid lock-down that there is no way they can weather this storm any longer... When Trump didn't clearly win this election they knew their time was up.

    so following the letter of the law is crazy, now

    and let's nevermind those HIPAA laws

    or how the order is entirely inconsistent with it

    and not for nothin, but petulant means ill tempered and sulky, I am not ill tempered an sulky the only one who is being ill tempered here is you, for me laughing at a company going under because of its own stupid policies
