>Meanwhile the conservatives in the US are saying that corporations have a right to choose who they serve based upon their religious beliefs.

This gotcha only works when your opponent is pro business and you want them oppressed by businesses. However republicans are starting to turn anti-business. Take for instance the kerfuffle Ron DeSantis had with Disney.



Sure, conservatives have been pushing rights for conservative businesses.

But once those religious rights have been granted, it's possible for that pendulum to swing the other way.

Must a power company, say, give power to the NY State NAMBLA headquarters? That's the easy one.

The more complex one is arguing that the insurrection was against your religious beliefs (because your religion espouses non-violence), and then the power company could say cut off power to offices held by congress people that supported the J6 criminals?
