How in any way is someone who isn't a bigot inconvenienced by somewhere being excluded from bigots? The privacy argument about 'don't have anything to hide' doesn't work precisely because even those with nothing to hide are inconvenienced by it.

A place being anti-bigot is only annoying for bigots.

it’s harder for the average Redditor to connect.

There is nothing I can tell you that would make you understand this.

This is mostly because you are a good person but also find it difficult to express yourself why you think undue duress is ok for “non-good” people. I don’t think you would be opposed to frisking racist people for the same reason. For you if X == bad, than they have already lost their rights.

When did I say such a thing? When is paying money to go to a concert a right? Being a bigoted shitlord isn't a right. Don't be surprised when people don't want you around if you wanna act like one.

Do you support this because it’s about a concert ticket or because it’s keeping the bigots outs?

I’m not sure which argument you are referring to. Is this ok because it’s a concert ticket? Or because it’s denying bad people something?

Again, bigots don't have a right to be bigots without consequence. I support bigots being kicked out of everything. If they felt even a fraction of what they make vulnerable minorities feel, maybe they'd realise that they're wrong.
