Go fash, lose cash.
Complete tangent:
“PublicSquare is basically the Green Book, but for conservatives,” this TikTok user, who goes by dapper.delinquent, says in his video. “The Green Book was a book passed around Black communities that was a list of stores and businesses that were safe for Black People to use. PublicSquare is the same thing for conservatives.”
If you make an analogy, then have to explain the thing you are comparing the first thing with, what is the point of the analogy?
Damn a restaurant I like is on this stupid site. It’s surprising because most of the stuff in my area that’s on here is like realtors, explicitly right wing businesses with patriot in the name, or like when you go in there it’s all thin blue line flags and shit. This is just a normal restaurant with normal decor. I’m not really surprised the owners are apparently Trumpy, pretty much all the business owners in my area are, I’m just surprised to see them on this site
Public square.com is the name of this website
Hah! I appreciate them making it easy on me. Mostly just real estate offices on it near me.
lol
Lmao, even
Full on ROFL.
wake up honey, new BDS list just dropped.
but seriously I like that there’s a list of “maga friendly businesses”… because up until now the fascism has been too subtle.
Am I using this app correctly? I’m confused
Scheele’s, a big sporting good store, is on there. I switched to other options.
Well… fuck.
Looks like it’s just one particular Scheels that’s on there. I’d guess the franchisee is a dickhead, not the overall corporation (any more than corporations are usually dickheads anyway).
My local Scheels is not on there. In fact, relatively few local businesses are, which is surprising since I live in a pretty red state (though the city is pretty purple, and only getting bluer as time goes on).

get the MAGAs deported without process
Suspicion of “gang related” seems to be the excuse they use to deport the quickest.
I have communed with the dead, and they told me that there’s gang related activity happening in those businesses.
I love when people vote with their wallets.
However, I do wish that people would do it because of informed decision making instead out of spite.
If a business declares that it is in favor of crimes against humanity, fuck 'em.
Why give money to bad people when you could support good people? It’s a simple calculus. Remember it’s not that they just so happen to be conservative, these are people who opted in to advertise that they are bad people.
Again, I’m not saying that what is happening here is bad. I’m saying that I wish the reasoning behind it would be different.
It is an informed decision.
They choose the party where a creepy ass man with multiple crimes and convictions is their president, one that continues to dismantle American justice by directly locking up opposing judges, locked kids in cells, and directly threatening opposers.
They could have chosen anything – to support local community. To back unity. To defend disenfranchised people.
Instead, they chose MAGA and everything it has with it.
I don’t feel like that’s an “informed” decision. It’s a decision because they hate trump. There’s nothing wrong with that, vote with your wallet for any reason, but I just feel like people could do a lot of good in the world if they just did a bit more informing. Then they wouldn’t buy stuff from companies that try to fuck them over.
Shit like apple, samsung, nestle etc. wouldn’t exist today in that form if people would make more informed purchasing decisions.
Dude you are quite literally letting perfect be the enemy of good enough. You are getting pissy that folks are using a quick shorthand to figure out if a business isnt worth supporting, usually it takes far more effort to figure out how bad any individual business is cause most of them will fuck over their employees but are smart enough not to fuck over consumers. This stupid index is basically a big ol’ flag saying we are raging cunts who support a fascist, that makes it piss easy to figure out who to boycott.
Holy shit I’m not getting pissy about anything I’m saying I WISH PEOPLE WOULD MAKE MORE INFORMED DECISIONS IN OTHER AREAS OF THEIR DAILY LIFE
I wanted a similar site but to track houses with Trump signs up. Have to upload pictures for the record, and cross referenced with MLS listings/sales so everything is expunged on property transfer.
No particular reason to keep this info around. Just a curiosity.
Intensely creepy. You’re giving the redcaps ideas :(
Stop feeling sorry for nazis.
Hey bozo, not wanting to normalize creating lists of people based on politics is not “feeling sowwy for Nazis”. Pay the fuck attention, this type of thing in this type of climate doesn’t end well.
There should be no tolerance for intolerance.
When their politics include coming for people like me? Yeah, it’s well past time for lists.
Businesses aren’t people and we’re allowed to vote with our wallets if nothing else. Plus, the red hats made the site, dummy. We’re just using the list they gave us.

We aren’t talking about businesses. Please read the discussion taking place before commenting in the future, thanks bud
Thank you for asking nicely, bud. But eh.
My dude, they are black bagging people off the street and now our AG says ICE can walk into your home without a warrant.
If anything I am behind the curve.
That would drive them absolutely batshit insane
In my head I called it The Scarlet Letter and the logo was a giant red burning T.
Not that I have put thought into it or anything 😅
Burning T…
Time… Time to go…
Why is HitlerPig Jr in the photo? Is he promoting his MAGA cocaine dealer?
A plausible guess, but the article says he’s on the website’s board of directors.
As a consumer, PublicSquare’s website is easy to use. You just enter your ZIP code
Where? In the search box I just get a few products that happen to have my zip code in their description (not as a zip, but as a product number or something). Other comments here mention a map, but I’m not seeing that.
That site’s UX is a steaming pile of shit.
They changed it (uncertain when) after a lot of publicity.
Well shit. The landscaping company we signed up for this year is a MAGAt apparently. I’ll be shopping for a different company now.
I’m gonna guess that lots of landscapers are maga.
It makes sense, as MAGA are the human equivalent of leafblowers: loud, obnoxious, spew shit for miles in all directions, and serve no discernible purpose except to make the world worse for everyone around them…
Make sure you tell them why you’re firing them, and post a review on their Google page. Dont mention the quality of the service, just that you dropped them for their treasonous support of MAGA Nazis.
I’m on the fence about telling them why. I have zero faith that losing me as a customer will make them reconsider their political position even if it would make me feel better. What it may do it make them remove their add from the MAGAt site meaning we lose the warning signal to others.
As far as leaving reviews pointing out there MAGAness, I’m in a red state and that may help them. They love their martyrs, so I’m definitely skipping that step.
Yah, it isn’t like they’re going to say “Oh no! We lost a customer. I’m having an ethical dilemma now.”
I kinda don’t care about hearts and minds. Let them know you dropped them for that reason, the scorn is enough. They’re allowed to be maga it just can’t be without consequences
I kinda don’t care about hearts and minds. Let them know you dropped them for that reason, the scorn is enough.
I get where you are but this is contradictory. If we don’t care about addressing mindsets of folks then making my position known is the opposite of that. They likely won’t care, and simply dismiss me as some kind of “woke lib”. So the only benefit to making my feelings know would be to make me feel better.
They’re allowed to be maga it just can’t be without consequences
Worse, pragmatically speaking, they might actually benefit if I did that. Yes they lose me as a customer, but that’s happening anyway. Now though, I’ve given them a story to tell. A cross to affix themselves to as they talk about their hardship of a single “woke lib” that drop them. If they even get a single person to accept their story, then they’ll have replace the revenue they would have derived from me and are made “whole”. Worse, they need only circulate the story in the areas we both live in and many of my MAGA neighbors would likely rally around them giving them even more business that before.
In these circumstances, the consequences for MAGAism for them would be positive as they would (at least for a short time) gain additional business from MAGAness.
This is one of those hard adult decision where the only move is to not play the game. I drop them as business I patronize and say nothing as to the reason of there MAGAness. I leave their (self inflicted) warning signs in place for others to see as I did, and without becoming a rallying cry which will benefit them.
This guy plays chess
Valid.
Four Seasons?
Their statement on being a press conference venue for the Trump administration was that their business was not supporting anyone in particular, but was thrilled to be part of the democratic process. The tone this statement was said in led me to believe that they were also thrilled to facilitate Trump’s goons making a hilarious fuck-up.
Nah, that’s a conference venue. You’re thinking of the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center & Fairgrounds in Oaks, Pennsylvania.
I’m thinking that it will be fun to call this out on Yelp and Google reviews pages in blue areas.
I recently bought some stuff online from Penzeys, specifically because of the anti-maga stuff.
My mom orders stuff from them all the time. We don’t even use the spices fast enough but she gets more, usually for her friends too though.
Their Fox point seasoning is the shit. Veggies, eggs, garlic toast, and it makes an excellent dupe of noodles and company buttered noodles.
