On the first hot weekend of the summer, Richard Knapp put up a sign outside Mother’s Ruin, a bar tucked in Manhattan’s SoHo neighborhood. It had two arrows: one pointing vaccinated people indoors, another pointing unvaccinated people outdoors.
The Instagram post showing the sign (above) quickly went viral among European anti-vaxxers on Reddit. “We started receiving hate mail through the Google portal,” Knapp says, estimating he’d received about a “few dozen” emails: “I’ve been called a Nazi and a communist in the same sentence. People hope that our bar burns down. It’s a name and shame campaign.” It wasn’t just the emails. Soon, his bar started receiving multiple one-star reviews on Yelp and Google Reviews from accounts as far away as Europe.
Spamming review portals with negative ratings is not a new phenomenon. Throughout the pandemic, the tactic has also been deployed to attack bars and restaurants that enforced mask-wearing for safety. As pandemic restrictions have lifted, businesses like Mother’s Ruin have sought to ensure that safety by requiring proof of vaccination using state-sponsored apps like New York’s Excelsior Pass, vaccine passports, or simply flashing vaccine cards at the door — practices that have instigated a second surge of spam reviews.
These spam one-star reviews can be extremely damaging. The default mode for viewing reviews is in chronological order, from newest to oldest, which means a spam attack places fake reviews up top, making the most recent reviews that much more influential if you’re the victim of a concerted campaign.
While some companies have gotten around this issue on their own sites by verifying that reviewers are actual customers by reaching out to them via email and matching them with what they have on file, industry-leading platforms like Yelp and Google let anyone.. rate and review a business.

These actions show what they really think about their customers.
I entered an appliance store a couple days after the magic 14 day lock down to stop the spread. I put on a mask as required by the sign on the door. There were tape markings on the floor at 6’ intervals. No other customers were in the store and the sales person came out from a back room. “Don’t touch the counter! Get behind that line!” I left and will never go back.
Act like a Nazi deal with the consequences morons
This is the way!!
The difference is you get to chose to be vaccinated. In case you didn’t understand that.
Don’t worry, Yelp will get right on to scrubbing all of those pesky negative reviews.
Here’s some truth about vaccines. The most evil of sstans realms
Read it and understand that the
SATANIC EVIL VACCINE POISON RACKETS HAVE DESTROYED MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF LIVES. PARTICULARLY BABIES FOR MORE THAN A CENTURY NOW DELIBERATELY
These two excellent sites are written by parents of children’s whose lives were destroyed And. The EVIL THEY HAVE HAD TO SNDURE IN THE NAMD IF JESUS CHRIST FIGHTING THIS SATANIC EVIL
THIS IS THE PROFOUND DOCUMENTED 200 year history of the CARTEL
Here’s an excerpt if your too chicken 🐔 shiiite to read it
1959 National Institutes of Health (NIH) approves licensing of Quadrigen vaccine for children, containing Pertussis, Diptheria, Tetanus and Polio vaccines. The new combination vaccine was found to be highly reactive and was withdrawn from the market in 1968 after parents started filing lawsuits against Parke- Davis for vaccine damaged children.
1959 Pertussis vaccine found to have allergenic effect on animals.
1960 British Medical Journal publishes an article by Swedish vaccine researcher Justus Strom, who stated that the neurological complications from the disease Pertussis are less than that in the Pertussis vaccine. Strom also pointed out that ‘whooping cough (Pertussis) had changed and had become a milder disease, making it questionable whether universal vaccination against it is justified.’
1960 General vaccination program for measles begins in the United States.
1960 It is estimated in 1960 that over 1,000,000 children have vaccine-caused disabilities, including learning difficulties and school behavioral problems, behavioral disturbances, allergies, speech difficulties, visual problems, and problems in adjustment and coping.
1961 A senior school medical officer in Northern England, J.M. Hooper, finds that parents are beginning to refuse to bring children for a Pertussis booster shot, based on earlier violent reaction to the ‘vaccination.’ Children were suffering from collapse, vomiting, and uncontrollable screaming. No one paid attention to these warnings.
1961 Sabin polio vaccine immunization campaign.
1963 American researcher John F. Enders creates a measles vaccine. Mass inoculations begin.
1963 Children vaccinated with killed measles vaccine between 1963 and 1967 develop Atypical Measles Syndrome (AMS). Studies suggest the children’s response to the ‘wild’ measles virus is ‘altered’ and that the severity and persistence of symptoms suggests encephalopathy (brain damage.) See 1967.
1964 Reward of $30,000 offered to prove polio vaccine was not fraud. No takers.
1965 US Government’s leading Pertussis vaccine specialist, Margaret Pittman, (until 1971) states, ‘Bordetella Pertussis is unique among infectious bacteria in its marked ability to modify biological processes.’
1965 Congress passes the Immunization Assistance Act. More states made their vaccination programs mandatory/obligatory.
1967 The FDA stops the use of an experimental cancer vaccine which was producing significant results. Developed by James Rand and Eernest Ayre, a recognized cancer specialist. The Rand vaccine produced significant improvement in terminal patients in over 30% of patients. It cured tumors and breast cancer in four to six months, without radiation, surgery or chemotherapy. The FDA Commissioner was James L. Goddard, the same man who persecuted the use of DMSO. Goddard used the DMSO issue in 1966 in an attempt to foster a medical dictatorship in the US in collusion with the medical and pharmaceutical industries, and remove viable treatments from public access.
This is all out WAR WITH THESE EVIL
POWERS NOW. THE GLOVES ARE OFF. NO QUARTER.
NO MORE FORCING POOR PARENTS TO DESTROY THEIR BABIES !!
They must have deleted all the bad reviews.
If the vaccines work, what difference does it make?
Any business pulling that krap in my area will get yelp’ed the phuk out...
I’ve taken the flu vaccine two years in row now and the 1st shot of Shingryx
I ain’t taking something developed at “Warp Speed”....
Georges Sorel(1847 – 1922) Sorel was a Marxist-Fascists(Both) and helped Mussolini Fascism get it’s start
Listen, you!
Quit trying to confuse people with the facts!!
Never heard of this tube before.
Telling the truth about a bar or restaurant is not negative spam. It merely helps you decide whether or not you choose to patronize the establishment.
Perhaps They can’t face fact that they may have been too early to the party? Made a mistake?
I have found being an early market adaptor rarely pays off...and certainly not in case of experimental gene therapy.
Yeah, I was thinking this could go either way also. The Red Hen restaurant in VA, despite a deluge of bad press from the right, continues to be open and running. So much for boycotting someone out of business.
I suspect that the glowing reviews mostly come from staff, family, friends and relatives while the poor ones are posted by competitors' staff, family, friends and relatives.
Act like a Nazi deal with the consequences morons
I bailed on an event where the venue stigmatized “non-vaccinated”.
