<v Speaker 1>Boston's bulldozer operates seven days a week.

0:00:03.760 --> 0:00:05.420
<v Speaker 2>The Kuhner Report Weekend Edition.

0:00:05.700 --> 0:00:08.090
<v Speaker 1>WRKO, the voice of Boston.

0:00:08.450 --> 0:00:13.440
<v Speaker 2>You want to see how insane the left has become?

0:00:14.770 --> 0:00:21.529
<v Speaker 2>You got to hear this story. Oh, this one I

0:00:21.590 --> 0:00:25.090
<v Speaker 2>can't top. I'm telling you, nobody can top this story.

0:00:25.739 --> 0:00:32.680
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, Kunar country. Okay, my friends, it is, I

0:00:34.840 --> 0:00:37.879
<v Speaker 2>really want to stress this to all of you. This

0:00:37.979 --> 0:00:40.750
<v Speaker 2>is not a spoof. It's going to sound like a spoof.

0:00:40.790 --> 0:00:44.070
<v Speaker 2>You're going to say, come on, you know, is this,

0:00:44.810 --> 0:00:48.670
<v Speaker 2>you know, did April Fools come early this year? This

0:00:48.750 --> 0:00:51.950
<v Speaker 2>is not a gag. This is not a spoof. This

0:00:52.050 --> 0:00:56.930
<v Speaker 2>is not, you know, I'm making it up for comedic effect.

0:00:57.750 --> 0:01:01.010
<v Speaker 1>This is literally a true story.

0:01:02.470 --> 0:01:06.970
<v Speaker 2>It is both local. It is now national. It has

0:01:07.050 --> 0:01:11.949
<v Speaker 2>gone everywhere. And I believe the reason why this story

0:01:12.170 --> 0:01:17.729
<v Speaker 2>is connecting and resonating the way it is, because in

0:01:17.790 --> 0:01:23.870
<v Speaker 2>this story, it sums up the utter insanity and contradictions

0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:32.459
<v Speaker 2>of the modern day radical left, of woke ideology itself. So,

0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:38.229
<v Speaker 2>brace yourself, because there's, again, I am not joking, I'm

0:01:38.270 --> 0:01:40.770
<v Speaker 2>not exaggerating an iota.

0:01:41.250 --> 0:01:44.190
<v Speaker 1>So, first of all, what's going.

0:01:44.069 --> 0:01:47.960
<v Speaker 2>To shock you is that this story was actually published

0:01:48.740 --> 0:01:49.779
<v Speaker 2>in the Boston Globe.

0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:51.320
<v Speaker 1>That's right.

0:01:51.940 --> 0:01:55.480
<v Speaker 2>The left wing moonbat Boston Globe.

0:01:56.060 --> 0:01:57.330
<v Speaker 1>You're going to say, what?

0:01:57.890 --> 0:02:01.650
<v Speaker 2>A story that reveals how insane the left is? It's

0:02:01.710 --> 0:02:06.690
<v Speaker 2>from the globe? I think they thought this was just

0:02:06.730 --> 0:02:12.280
<v Speaker 2>like a fun sort of human interest piece. And now it's,

0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:14.480
<v Speaker 2>by the way, there's subscriptions. They've got, I think, a

0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 2>thousand new subscriptions based on this single story. It's apparently

0:02:19.650 --> 0:02:23.150
<v Speaker 2>shattering a record for the Boston Globe. So here is

0:02:23.250 --> 0:02:27.050
<v Speaker 2>exactly what the Boston Globe initially reported, and now it

0:02:27.150 --> 0:02:36.490
<v Speaker 2>is everywhere. There is a lesbian bar in Greenfield, Massachusetts,

0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:42.680
<v Speaker 2>and the bar is called Last Ditch. Okay?

0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:43.840
<v Speaker 1>The Last Ditch Bar.

0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:50.760
<v Speaker 2>And I swear to you, by the way, they're on

0:02:50.780 --> 0:02:55.930
<v Speaker 2>their last financial legs. They're on the verge of going bankrupt.

0:02:56.930 --> 0:02:59.990
<v Speaker 2>They're really close now. They're very close to going bankrupt.

0:03:01.650 --> 0:03:10.080
<v Speaker 2>To this day, they still have COVID mask mandates, meaning

0:03:10.820 --> 0:03:16.730
<v Speaker 2>every patron who enters the bar, is required to wear

0:03:17.370 --> 0:03:22.639
<v Speaker 2>a COVID mask. In fact, not just a COVID mask. Now, remember,

0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:23.600
<v Speaker 2>this is 2026, okay?

0:03:23.620 --> 0:03:26.160
<v Speaker 1>Not 2022 or 2021. It's 2026.

0:03:30.820 --> 0:03:34.180
<v Speaker 2>Everybody's got to wear a mask, but not just a mask,

0:03:34.620 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 2>an N95, or sorry, a KN95 mask or better. In

0:03:40.420 --> 0:03:44.200
<v Speaker 2>other words, the really good masks, the one that really

0:03:44.310 --> 0:03:47.840
<v Speaker 2>grips you around your mouth and your nose area. So

0:03:48.500 --> 0:03:53.010
<v Speaker 2>they've been doing this now for years. Patrons, it doesn't matter,

0:03:53.270 --> 0:03:57.510
<v Speaker 2>you have to wear a mask. On top of that,

0:03:58.510 --> 0:04:04.020
<v Speaker 2>They do not allow police officers or cops. Verboten, if

0:04:04.060 --> 0:04:08.520
<v Speaker 2>you're a cop or a police officer, out.

0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:10.940
<v Speaker 1>But they claim to be very inclusive.

0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:16.900
<v Speaker 2>In fact, listen, they're so inclusive and they're so leftist

0:04:17.690 --> 0:04:22.250
<v Speaker 2>that they have what they call an anti-capitalist business model.

0:04:26.370 --> 0:04:29.180
<v Speaker 1>I swear only in this state. Only in this freaking state.

0:04:31.380 --> 0:04:37.620
<v Speaker 2>So because they have an anti-capitalist business model, quote, nobody

0:04:37.700 --> 0:04:41.640
<v Speaker 2>will be barred from entry due to lack of funds.

0:04:42.730 --> 0:04:45.750
<v Speaker 2>So in other words, if you can't pay, it's okay.

0:04:49.870 --> 0:04:53.670
<v Speaker 2>This is in Greenfield, Mike, Western Mass, Central, I guess,

0:04:53.710 --> 0:04:58.700
<v Speaker 2>Central Western Mass, So Mike is like, whoa, this doesn't

0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:02.480
<v Speaker 2>sound like the worst thing. Now, it gets even better, okay?

0:05:10.250 --> 0:05:19.050
<v Speaker 2>So it gets even better. Poor people, unhoused people are welcome,

0:05:19.690 --> 0:05:20.490
<v Speaker 2>according to them.

0:05:20.890 --> 0:05:22.510
<v Speaker 1>They're absolutely welcome.

0:05:23.190 --> 0:05:29.560
<v Speaker 2>So if you're If you're poor, meaning you're homeless, you

0:05:29.580 --> 0:05:30.700
<v Speaker 2>can stay there.

0:05:30.860 --> 0:05:32.560
<v Speaker 1>And have a drink on them.

0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:38.460
<v Speaker 2>So you see how this thing is working out? But

0:05:39.570 --> 0:05:43.989
<v Speaker 2>because now they're on the verge of bankruptcy, they can't

0:05:44.089 --> 0:05:46.549
<v Speaker 2>pay their bills, the bank is going.

0:05:46.430 --> 0:05:47.730
<v Speaker 1>To foreclose on the loan.

0:05:48.650 --> 0:05:50.870
<v Speaker 2>The poor owner, and I'm going to get to this

0:05:50.930 --> 0:05:56.660
<v Speaker 2>in a second, the poor owner says, well, I What

0:05:56.720 --> 0:06:01.110
<v Speaker 2>if on Saturday nights we decide to.

0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:05.289
<v Speaker 1>Make it optional? Optional.

0:06:06.450 --> 0:06:09.310
<v Speaker 2>Let's make it optional if you want to wear a mask.

0:06:10.550 --> 0:06:16.330
<v Speaker 2>So they put out a statement that says, I swear

0:06:16.350 --> 0:06:20.430
<v Speaker 2>to you, okay, that on Saturdays, by the way, you

0:06:20.450 --> 0:06:22.710
<v Speaker 2>can still wear a mask, even if you don't want

0:06:22.740 --> 0:06:23.570
<v Speaker 2>to wear a mask.

0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:24.739
<v Speaker 1>You can still.

0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:29.640
<v Speaker 1>You can still wear a mask. But no, no, no, no.

0:06:31.220 --> 0:06:34.290
<v Speaker 2>On Saturdays, if you don't want to wear a mask,

0:06:34.430 --> 0:06:37.790
<v Speaker 2>you don't have to wear a mask. Oh, boy.

0:06:37.810 --> 0:06:39.830
<v Speaker 1>Oh, boy.

0:06:40.450 --> 0:06:47.250
<v Speaker 2>The moment they issued that post on Instagram, all hell

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:48.320
<v Speaker 2>broke loose.

0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:53.320
<v Speaker 1>And I mean hell. an uproar.

0:06:53.880 --> 0:07:02.600
<v Speaker 2>The entire lesbian LGBTQ community in the Greenfield area is

0:07:02.720 --> 0:07:07.920
<v Speaker 2>now completely up in arms. It is a public firestorm.

0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:15.300
<v Speaker 2>It is an absolute scandal. And so, the owner now

0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:20.100
<v Speaker 2>is under ferocious attack. Now remember, One day a week,

0:07:20.900 --> 0:07:23.420
<v Speaker 2>masking is optional.

0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:24.680
<v Speaker 1>Listen to this.

0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:31.380
<v Speaker 2>This is now the comments exploding on their site. And

0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:37.140
<v Speaker 2>it's been one after another after another. Just say you're

0:07:37.190 --> 0:07:42.770
<v Speaker 2>being complicit in a mass disabling event and get it

0:07:42.910 --> 0:07:50.710
<v Speaker 2>over with, wrote one commenter. Apparently there are some disabled

0:07:50.770 --> 0:07:54.370
<v Speaker 2>people who are at the bar and they're saying that

0:07:54.770 --> 0:08:01.190
<v Speaker 2>because they're disabled and allegedly everybody's immunocompromised, that if you

0:08:01.250 --> 0:08:04.990
<v Speaker 2>remove the mask mandate, you're killing them. You're literally killing them.

0:08:06.730 --> 0:08:13.040
<v Speaker 2>So another commenter posts, people like you kill disabled people

0:08:13.500 --> 0:08:16.720
<v Speaker 2>in the name of your own leisure and convenience.

0:08:18.190 --> 0:08:22.390
<v Speaker 1>But it doesn't stop. It just keeps coming. Another one.

0:08:22.530 --> 0:08:24.970
<v Speaker 1>Another moonbat. Listen to this.

0:08:25.590 --> 0:08:30.920
<v Speaker 2>I hope your venue gets firebombed for robbing my fellow

0:08:31.140 --> 0:08:37.700
<v Speaker 2>immunocompromised people of their Saturday plans just to scrape extra

0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:42.090
<v Speaker 2>revenue from ableists, wrote a third.

0:08:43.010 --> 0:08:44.750
<v Speaker 1>Ha, ha, ha. Ha, ha.

0:08:46.570 --> 0:08:50.770
<v Speaker 2>So apparently, if you're not disabled, you're what they call

0:08:50.830 --> 0:08:56.600
<v Speaker 2>an ableist. So, you know, not being in a wheelchair

0:08:56.760 --> 0:09:00.740
<v Speaker 2>or whatever, not being mentally or physically disabled, it's a crime.

0:09:01.740 --> 0:09:03.920
<v Speaker 2>It's a form of discrimination.

0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:05.760
<v Speaker 1>But hold on.

0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:11.800
<v Speaker 2>So now they're getting such blowback from their so-called patrons,

0:09:11.860 --> 0:09:15.410
<v Speaker 2>many of whom don't pay anything, right, because they're drinking

0:09:15.490 --> 0:09:18.940
<v Speaker 2>for free, or they're homeless people who just shack up

0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:23.179
<v Speaker 2>at this so-called lesbian bar. Now, so the last-ditch bar,

0:09:23.860 --> 0:09:27.670
<v Speaker 2>it just gets crazier and crazier and crazier. So the

0:09:27.730 --> 0:09:33.770
<v Speaker 2>last-ditch bar is now on the defensive. So now they're like, oh, no, no,

0:09:33.780 --> 0:09:35.520
<v Speaker 2>what are we going to do? What are we going

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:39.320
<v Speaker 2>to do? Everybody's turning on us. The entire woke community,

0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:45.420
<v Speaker 2>the lesbian community, the LGBTQ community, the so-called queer community,

0:09:45.870 --> 0:09:51.590
<v Speaker 2>everybody's turning on us. So they issue an apology on Instagram. Quote,

0:09:52.990 --> 0:09:57.690
<v Speaker 2>we are sorry for our passive and dismissive tone of

0:09:57.790 --> 0:10:03.449
<v Speaker 2>our change to the norm and schedule impacting the most

0:10:03.710 --> 0:10:13.530
<v Speaker 2>intersectional of us. It continues, we understand everyone faces different

0:10:13.790 --> 0:10:21.640
<v Speaker 2>intersections and we are always working to consider all needs fully. Well,

0:10:22.100 --> 0:10:28.360
<v Speaker 2>instead of defusing the situation, the apology, I'm telling you,

0:10:28.420 --> 0:10:32.900
<v Speaker 2>I'm not making this up, only made things worse.

0:10:33.820 --> 0:10:38.920
<v Speaker 1>Why? Because the bar allegedly made a huge mistake.

0:10:40.220 --> 0:10:44.540
<v Speaker 2>It posted an Instagram card, you know, with all the

0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:52.469
<v Speaker 2>chatter and everything. without providing alt text for the visually impaired.

0:10:53.630 --> 0:11:02.210
<v Speaker 2>In other words, blind people couldn't read it. So now

0:11:02.580 --> 0:11:07.819
<v Speaker 2>they're really in trouble. So what happens next? Oh, you're

0:11:07.840 --> 0:11:11.120
<v Speaker 2>not gonna believe it. I'm telling you, you're not gonna

0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:11.600
<v Speaker 2>believe it.
