We know, we just think its asinine.
And continually pointing out how asinine it is online helps (at a glacial pace) to shift the mentality. Maybe when I'm an old man that mentality will be dead.

These guys come in and it’s always a nice polite one. You serve them because you dont want to cause a scene. And then they become a regular and after awhile they bring a friend. And that dude is cool too.
And THEY bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh, this is a Nazi bar now. And its too late because they’re entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down.
