brewery cancels rittenhouse-hosted event, just wants to make beer

[butters]

Rittenhouse was to host an anti-censorship rally at the end of the month at Southern Star Brewing Company in Conroe, Texas. The brewery announced this week though that they were backing out of the rally, saying they just want to make beer.

The company announced:
Southern star brewery is an apolitical organization. But we feel that this event doesn’t reflect our own values and we could not in good faith continue to rent our space for the event on 1/26. We don’t do rallies, we make beer for people who like beer.

of course, rittenhouse claims he's been censored by the 'woke' crowd who don't want to hear his voice (who does?), but the icing on the cake for me was this precious nugget in the article:

A trivia night is being held at Southern Star Brewing later this month in place of Rittenhouse’s rally, according to their website.

Dylan Roof wasn't available? Rittenhouse the only racist psycho killer they could find? Now they're worried sales might suffer and backing out? Fuck'em. Their beer probably taste like diseased horse piss anyway.

I understand the Four Seasons Landscaping Company in Philadelphia would be happy to host his event.

George Santos might turn up claiming to be Rittenhouse's father.
Which might even be believable; he looks quite like him.

'Will Not Align with an Event Promoting Murderers': Headliner, All Supporting Acts Cancel on Music Festival After Kyle Rittenhouse Invite​

Headlining act Evergreen Terrace announced, “We will not align with an event promoting murderers such as Kyle Rittenhouse capitalizing off of their pseudo-celebrity.”

Proceeds from Shell Shock II, scheduled for Oct. 19 in Orlando, will be directed to veterans and others struggling with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. The show will go on, organizers say, even though they are left with a Slipknot cover band as its featured act.

Tyler Hoover, the event’s founder, told Outkick eight bands — basically the entire music lineup — had to be replaced.

hoover blames the bands for being 'woke' and that they got 'bullied' not to play

Let it Bleed, one of the bands that canceled, disagreed, saying in a statement that “problematic and potentially alienating entities were being used to market the show, and that is something we simply cannot condone.”

“Though we are advocates of free speech, we are collectively not a political band,” they said.

with virtually all the musicians cancelling, if the promotors were genuine about wanting to raise as much money as possible for the cause—PTSD—they'd have dropped rittenhouse's invitation and gone ahead with the full line-up and cashed in.

when ALL the bands refuse because of that one person, or even because of a couple, that should tell their fans what sort of people those one/couple are. loud and clear.
