    See the Nazi Bar Problem.

    It’s objectively an asshole move to refuse to serve a paying customer who is causing no issues and to imply violence if they don’t leave, but is the bartender in question really an asshole at the end of the day?

      Wait, the bartender in the anecdote isn’t an asshole in the context of his story.

      No, because the Nazi would absolutely use violence and other coercive means if he had the backup to feel safe doing so, like by having his Nazi friends join him at the quickly emptying seats at the new Nazi bar.

      If the bartender doesn’t want future problems he needs to act now.
