Mina's world was epic. It was watching epic wokism eat itself over social media.

The only thing epic about it was watching a bunch of anti-woke weirdos froth at the mouth for weeks about a cafe they didn't know existed in a part of town they never go to

This was my neighborhood for over two decades and what happened was the culmination of well intentioned priviledged people being taken advantage of by a bunch of confidence people.

Reminds me of the over 800 comment thread on Dishonest Honest Tom's going vegan 4+ years ago. It got brigaded by vegan subs lmao. Lo and behold, it didn't even last one year, and the new owners (who were cooks) immediately went back to serving meat, and as far as I know still exists today and is doing well.

Fuck "Honest" Tom, fucking woo new age "alkaline diet" dickhead.

There's another thread if you search Mina on this sub. The TLDR is that the worker's claimed "harm" occurred and demanded that the owners give them the business and the building. The third owner (mother of one of the day-to-day operators and main funder of the business) basically said hell no, shut down the café, and put the building up for sale.

It was infuriating. A bunch of whackadoo bullies demanding to own a business because they work there and a bunch of young owners who bent the knee. So sad. My neighborhood. A shanda. But hope lessons were learned.

I loved it when the successful Korean immigrant mother who owned the property and set everyone straight. Some of the staff was making the owners feel bad for owning the business and tried to guilt them into handing it over.
