I still do not understand how leftists can't see how racists they sound with this crap.

I don't care. If nonwhites can't figure out how to dress themselves in proper attire that is their problem.

Sigh, and of course, they can't distinguish between vague shit that can be argued over, to more hard and fast stuff like "jacket and tie required").

And yes, that sort of thing is meant to screen people. But yes, it needs to be enforced equally across the board for everyone. It also can't be vague. Anyway, you get rid of that sort of stuff, the next thing - the price point, as mentioned in the article - will be seen as the next thing that needs to be gotten rid of ("they needs to make the filet mignon either cost $2, or offer cheap peanu ... soybutter sandwiches" or some shit).

Anyway, the last place I went into that had a "dress code" (that had nothing to do with the military, anyway) was a place in Ottawa called I. P. Looney's. YOU had to dress nice, but the staff was dressed like ComicsCon. And if you didn't have a jacket and tie, they'd give you a loaner. Good food, though.

Sounds like one of them white nationalists to me.

It doesn't "target black customers", it targets people that are unwilling to understand that paying $100 for a pair of sneakers doesn't make them on the same level as a pair of Oxfords or Brogues in terms of dress wear. It targets people that think wearing their LeBron jersey instead of a suit jacket is perfectly fine for dinner attire. If said people just happen to be POC, then I don't think it's too much to ask that they educate themselves to proper social attire for a given eatery or event. I'm not going to expect to walk into a black-tie event looking like I just stepped off a basketball court, so why the hell should they get a pass?

Guess what: it's often minorities who dress up even when it's not necessary.

My dad always wore a full suit and tie when picking me up from school, which no other parent did.

For blacks, I think it can serve as a way of dissociating themselves from the less savory elements of their community.

That's cute. The American Black subculture treats book-readin' and enunciation as "actin' whyte." You think they're start wearing pink polo shirts with chino pants? They'll get bullied relentlessly by their supposed brothas and sistahs.

The only exception I've seen throughout my childhood were Black weebs, but being a weeb makes you a pariah regardless of race, so we all got along swimmingly.

You're answering your own question. The reason why this happens is precisely because there are blacks who behave like this. So yeah, such people exist, but unfortunately, the media insists on valorizing the George Floyds of this world.
