I did read your post. Your argument is this:

1. Starbucks calls the police to eject two black men who were sitting in the restaurant without first making a purchase. SJW snowflakes on social media lose their minds.

2. Starbucks calls the police to eject two neo-Nazis who were sitting in the restaurant without first making a purchase. SJW snowflakes on social media are either silent or support the business. OMG THE HYPOCRISY CHECKMATE LEFTISTS

Except there isn't any hypocrisy there. As has been mentioned multiple times by other posters in this thread, the problem isn't that Starbucks asked the two men to either buy something or leave. The problem is that they chose to selectively enforce their own policies. White people in the same Starbucks at the same time were not asked to leave even though they hadn't bought anything. At another Starbucks location, a white person was given access to the restroom even though he hadn't bought anything but a black person had the same request denied. That's the problem, and these are not just two isolated incidents. People of colour experience this type of discrimination ALL THE TIME.
