If you think Mailchimp has to serve Molyneux then you're arguing for the baker to have to make a gay wedding cake.

Actually, you're looking at this precisely backwards. I doesn't matter what you think, the baker already has to make the gay wedding cake. Since we're already under that regimen, it is therefore entirely appropriate to tell MailChimp that they have to host Molyneux, if you wish to remain evenhanded. Preemptively surrendering to the Left on this on the basis of fanciful and unworkable libertarian "principles" is a recipe for disaster in the long run.

Well put. That’s a good way to express it.

The baker did win his case at the Supreme Court, Masterpiece Cakeshop, Ltd. v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, to the chagrin of leftists.

SCOTUS sided with Masterpiece and said they didn't have to bake the cake. There are other actions against them that are still up in the air.

As I said in my earlier post, it's different when the discrimination is against a protected class, and sexual orientation is protected by the Colorodo anti-discrimination act.

Political viewpoint isn't protected by law anywhere in the US that I know of, and it shouldn't be.
