Another sign of Republican hypocrisy?

It's okay for a business to refuse to make a cake for a gay couple - https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/bak...

but it's not okay for a business to deny service to Trumpists - https://www.factsandarts.net/current-affairs/vanil...

Update:

Okay, now about religious beliefs - couldn't the baker be considered to be forcing his religion on the gay couple?-

    it's OK for a bakery to refuse to bake a cake, but it's not OK for Twitter to ban someone for violating the TOS

    Denial of service to republicans is not a result of deeply held religious beliefs.  And in one case the happy couple demanded that a big dick cake be baked which is enough reason to refuse it.  What kind of a cake would you expect to get if you forced someone to bake it?

    You've got it completely backwards.  First, it wasn't okay.  You people went apeshít.  And now hypocritically, you are refusing service to Trump supporters.

    Just look at your language, you slur with Trumpist.  Can you imagine the outrage if someone used a slur for the gays in your example.

    Furthermore, he didn't refuse to make a cake.  They weren't denied service.  He wouldn't make one specific cake that is against his religious beliefs.  We have a god given right to religious freedom, but no special right for a gay wedding cake.

    And that religious freedom you scorn, well that gives you the right to be an atheist too, Einstein.

    Yes, I’m just glad there’s never any Democrat hypocrisy. I’m sure that’s why you’re a democrat. Because if they were hypocrites you wouldn’t be one, amiright!?

    Actually the Colorado baker case was heard, and ruled on by the SCOTUS, and simple said he could refuse certain events.......Fake news got it wrong again.
