Woke restaurant enrages diners by adding new, anti-white charge to all receipts

A Minneapolis-based restaurant is now charging customers a 15 percent "equity charge" on all guest checks.

The reason for this new charge?

Customers are too racist and too sexist to be trusted with tipping properly.

The restaurant, Broders' Pasta Bar, published an entire page on their website explaining the new policy titled "WHAT IS THE BENEFITS & EQUITY CHARGE?"

"2020 was a time of introspection for us as it was for so many of our neighbors. In response to the racial injustice protests throughout our community and the (many) closures we experienced because of COVID, we spent some time reimagining the economics of our business with the goal of providing fair pay across our company," the website reads.

"One result of this effort was the creation of a 'Benefits & Equity' charge of 15 percent that is added to all guest checks."

ALL checks? Being that stoopid they deserve to lose business. But it might be a place for the 'guilty' to meet and discuss who much they loathe themselves. They might consider changing the name to "Loathers" or "Guilty Scummers".

Simple answer, that’s your tip. Even simpler answer, don’t patronize businesses that do stupid crap.

First of all, would not visit this place. If I were forced to go for some reason undefined, my tip calculation would be as follows: Normal 20% less my being gracious charge of 15%....5%.

Hold it! It is a well known fact that some of the worst tippers are blacks.

Reading the article, I see that the tip charge is going to business expenses. Some will trickle to the staff.

If I went to this restaurant, I wouldn’t tip, since its already in the bill.

But, they would probably try to promote the idea that the “equity charge” is separate from the direct server tip. So I wouldn’t go at all.

Why not just jack your prices 15% instead of making it a stupid divisive statement?

Since I usually tip 15-20%, I guess I adjust downward to 0-5%. Problem solved on my end.

Pay nothing and leave.

When confronted tell the owner he suffers a 10% racist penalty
