I could see a reality show out of that.
AOC is pure comedic gold with a rare/sincerity/ignorance/aivete to her.
All this conservative gal would need to be is a decent straight man, er, woman.
Used to be every young woman in America wouldn’t have photos done with her maximizing her assets in pin-up style.
Sue the Bast**ds!
Hey, if it is sauce for the goose, it is sauce for the gander.
THAT’s because we have more to lose!! Her only truly damaging way would be to find some contingent firm to file a lawsuit, win or lose. The cost of the lawsuit would stop this, provided it’s not considered frivolous.
I doubt seriously the courts would allow speech based discrimination.
Because leftist lunatics only understand money and power.
It’s been a culture war for decades, and it’s getting worse.
Unless conservatives wave the White Flag - we’re in for a revolution.
Turnabout is fair play.
Want to play a game?
I am not surprised by the “Oh noes! She can’t sue/pursue legal remedies! Freedom of association! No grounds! Not our style!” To them I say, this is war. One attacks and defends where one can. Shine the light on their bias and ignorance, on their discriminations and hate mongering. Make them defend themselves and their foolishness. Cost them money and time and inconvenience. Maybe even force them to admit they were/are wrong (I know, small chance of that, even if they lost a legal battle).
If you don’t fight back, it is worse than fighting and losing, it is quiting.
Unless you don't care to associate with sodomites.

That would be hilarious if it weren't so damn true.
It depends on the locale, and I’m not saying I agree with it, but you might want to reconsider your view on the law. A roommate situation does not create a blanket permission to “discriminate.”

I’m afraid you’re the one who doesn’t understand our laws. Advertising for a roommate is considered no different than a landlord doing so. See the link in my post 52.
Advertising is different—read the link I posted.
No, SCP—this didn’t involve a situation whereby the roommate opening was advertised as “no conservative Fox types need apply”—that is completely different.
You owe AAA Best an apology.

I believe this is against US Housing laws.
I stand corrected. I will note that the matter apparently has not been dealt with by the Supreme Court, however. Who knows what the future holds.
We shouldn't be suing people for not wanting involuntarily associate with those they don't want to involuntarily associate with...even if it is (unconstitutionally) legal in some clampdown jurisdiction.
