When I see a lot of manufactured social media outrage, I always try applying the reversed identity test to stories like this one. If in exactly the same situation, the two guys being asked to leave were really unlikable/polarizing characters, say, two neo-nazis covered in swastikas, would the reactions on social media have been same or would they really focus on owners' right to remove someone from premises, because, you know, it's the right thing to do?
