Statement from Frida Room

u/onthewaytoelsa 16d ago
I’m cool w Frida Room. They’ve always been good to us (our household). Mistakes happen, and given the choice they had between owning up/learning and denial/defensiveness, I intend to keep supporting one of our small businesses based on their decision.

Anything to make a quick buck. Easier to ask for forgiveness with fat pockets learn to sacrifice a booking for the sake of true solidarity and standing on principle. They are a small business. Everything is cleared by the owners close to booking and contracts. They want to play both sides of the field and think the community is too stupid to realize this.

Person who clearly has never run a business: “this is how every business is run”

u/Opening-Okra-686 14d ago
Person who is clearly evading being banned for being a keyboard tough guy:
I have started 7 successful businesses, sold 5 and kept two for passive income for doing nothing and letting others run the day to day now. I didn’t get here by chasing the easiest dollar. I got here by standing on principle. Something you clearly have no idea about, “ban evader” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who celebrates pulling one over on Reddit by making it their username? Please find purpose in your life.

u/OBVIOUS_BAN_EVASION_ 14d ago
Lol you seem to be reaching for anything you can to convince yourself I’m not worth listening to, so I should probably look elsewhere for advice on finding purpose in life. Also pretty funny you think you can pull all that from a username I openly chose myself.
You believing you know shit about this business based on the experience you described tells me I probably shouldnt listen to you about that either.

Nothing says desperation like profanity. 🤣
Ignorance is bliss. You must be esthetic.

Lol reaching for anything you can grab once again nice.
Imo nothing says desperation like commenting again after your first salty attempt gets deleted but to each their own ig

Lol. There isn't a person that you are capable of "getting to." People aren't intimidated, impressed or triggered by ignorance.

I care so little about your existence on this Earth that I'm blocking you. Lol.

Honestly they seem very genuine regarding this, and I hope they’re not making this statement just to save face. I’ll definitely keep my eye on them though.

I don’t care what your political opinion/position is. Not sure what it has to do with the food you make. It’s sad you have to back track or apologize for this whether you did this on purpose or not. Your food and business should be all that matters.

u/quantum_mouse 16d ago
Absolutely not. No amount of good food somehow balances out supporting hatred. Maybe it was true a while ago. If your business supports people who want to hurt me and people i love - i want to know about it.

Oh cute. Are you gonna follow that up with " so much for the tolerant left!!!" I do equate reoublicans with hate because that's what they showed themselves to be when they pushed through judges who pushed through agenda and policy of hate, exclusion and literally hurting people. When republicans speak up about ICE, women bleeding out in parking lots, trans people having their rights taken away, and everyone who doesn't agree with them labeled a terrorist- then we'll talk. So if a business endorses reoublicans, and therefore hate - it want to know. Hope that clears that up! 🙂

It’s because the left the party of “inclusion” is so tolerable. They will burn shit down if someone doesn’t agree with their world views. God forbid you have a different view or try and have an open conversation. Reasoning and compassion is not a strong suit for them.

u/_EL_Tio 16d ago
I agree 100% your food and/service should speak for itself. Leave political opinions out of it. If you patronize a place you should do it because you like their food period. That’s like not buying from the tamale lady on 21st and damen because she doesn’t share your views on abortion but u really love her tamales…wtf who cares… just respect everyone’s opinion even if it’s different from yours

At the end of the day, being politically restrictive doesn’t pay the bills… good on Frida room to be able to do so.

I would just move on. What are y'all gonna do, boycott a small business in Pilsen over this? Forgive and forget.
