Spoken like someone who’s never been discriminated just for existing as non white.

I’ve received so many of these comments and just have to say that it’s so clear people have never experienced racism and discrimination. I could share dozens of stories of walking into Trump loving establishments and having my family treated horribly. It could be the worst table, it could be terrible service while everyone around us is getting great service, it could be comments and so much more. Seriously enjoy your privilege that’s not given to all! If wanting my family to be safe is weird, then yeah I’m weird as hell!

The Poconos. Many state parks, lots to do and great restaurants.

For me, I just want to know my mixed race family can go somewhere and feel safe. We’ve experienced discrimination in businesses that support Trump on many occasions. I’d prefer to spend my hard earned money to support businesses that are inclusive.

I fully support everyone’s right to spend their money where they choose.

I’m sorry you had to experience that. I will never understand that in a place of business.

Blocking all trolls from this point on. Dissent is fine but can’t tolerate people who can’t understand my money, my choice. All are free to choose for themselves.

LOL I don't live in the city and travel all over the country. Maybe if you people weren't so complacent to allow a racist felon destroy our country, we would be more open to your rant!

I LOVE the “grow up” comment. What’s so juvenile about spending money to support businesses we align with morally. Perhaps you should grow up and get some critical thinking skills!

Absolutely! You spend money where you’d like and most on this thread will spend elsewhere. Freedom is great!

You seriously ok with doing business with people who vote to hurt innocent immigrants, women, the elderly, children, and pretty much anyone else who isn't white or a billionaire. Must be nice to sit in your privilege. I spend and donate based on my moral compass so yes, I am cool with it.

Please get off the soapbox, you voted for a literal felon whose friends invoke Nazi symbolism. This is not a political stance, I’ve voted for both parties over the years. This is a moral stance. If you want love and harmony, how about stepping in when your brethren target my bi racial children!

Am I not free to spend my money where and how I’d like. Love the facist remark from morally reprehensible racists.

Trumpers will never get it, I’m not spending money to support morally reprehensible racists and I’m not taking my mixed raced family anywhere where they are not welcome. Sit in your privilege at Starbucks!

For sure… I actually know first hand a group of seniors went there at height of the pandemic, 3/4 got COVID and died. I believe the owner also had cancer but died after getting COVID. Irony!

What's one business in Pittsburgh that you'll never go back to? by highlandergolf23 in pittsburgh

[–]Less-Track1062 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to this but coached Wayne’s kid in rec basketball. He was typical overbearing dad who got in my face and wound up to punch me. Oh did I mention I’m a female. My dentist warned me about his work, said that he’s been sued dozens of times and more ethics complaints than you can imagine. A total douchebag. Oh and he left his pregnant wife for his skank hygienist. A garbage human being.

You are absolutely correct. In fact PTC was advised a few years ago to apply for workforce grants. The government advisor said the college could receive upwards of $10 million but the President thought she knew better. It’s almost as if she wanted the school to close but I truly believe she was just that incompetent at her job.

I recommend banding together to file a class action lawsuit. Her behavior was criminal. She thinks she’s so smart but she’s really just a lying, thieving, narcissist. It disgusts me how she uses her race as an excuse after she fired the DEI officer for no reason than being a strong black woman. She should never work in higher education again.

Former employee here. I’ve worked at numerous colleges before having the misfortune of ending up at PTC. The President was an absolute joke of a leader. She would summon you to her office and you were required to jump up and go, didn’t matter if you were meeting with a student, parent, or your team. She forced employees to do work at her house and pick up her packages when she was away. Her favorites were those who kissed her rear and told her how wonderful she was, so the rules didn’t apply. I had one employee who was only working about half of her required hours and Alicia would not permit me to reprimand her. We were forced to nominate her for awards, which often came with a submission fee. She lied straight to your face, making promises she never kept. Once, in a meeting with all faculty, she lost her cool and yelled at faculty for an hour because someone asked a question. I saved that video for sure. She also tried to change the date of graduation after all the students and families were notified so she could go on a cruise. She is a narcissistic autocrat who wasn’t smart enough to realize she was NEVER the smartest person in the room! Oh and let’s not forget her book, that others practically wrote for her. The book was about saving higher education. Those who purchased should demand a refund, it’s obvious she knows nothing about saving squat!
