Etiquette



DP Etiquette

First rule: Don't be a jackass.

Other rules: Do not attack or insult people you disagree with. Engage with facts, logic and beliefs. Out of respect for others, please provide some sources for the facts and truths you rely on if you are asked for that. If emotion is getting out of hand, get it back in hand. To limit dehumanizing people, don't call people or whole groups of people disrespectful names, e.g., stupid, dumb or liar. Insulting people is counterproductive to rational discussion. Insult makes people angry and defensive. All points of view are welcome, right, center, left and elsewhere. Just disagree, but don't be belligerent or reject inconvenient facts, truths or defensible reasoning.

Doxxing a fascist billionaire

A day or two ago our beer boofing, sexual predator Supreme Court justice Brett Kavanaugh was disgruntled when protestors turned up outside the restaurant he was having dinner at. The protests disrupted dissert and Bretty-poo left the restaurant in a huff-snit. 

AOC was dismayed at the protests, musing that protesters should have at least let him eat cake.

Anyway, the restaurant in DC where this happened was a Morton's steak house. The restaurant issued a public statement saying that the beer boofer had a "right" to eat dinner without protestors disturbing his equanimity or the restaurant's feng-shui. Now the restaurant is being flooded with fake reservations and irate messages. Poor Morton's. Nah, not really. 

Morton's is one of those grossly overpriced cow and booze houses with dark stained wood paneling, low lights, thick carpets, comfy stuffed chairs and cute young waitresses. I know because over the years I've been to a Morton's for several business dinners. I didn't know who owned it or what he was.


Morton's is a subsidiary of Landry's. It's owned by Tillman Fertitta, a billionaire who also owns the NBA Houston Rockets (and has close ties to the NFL Houston Texans [and Donald T****]).

These are related restaurants/hotels/etc. in his corporate org if you'd like to avoid giving them your money/business:

  • Bubba Gump Shrimp Company

  • Cadillac Bar

  • Landry's, Inc.

  • Landry's Seafood

  • Rainforest Cafe

  • Kemah Boardwalk

  • Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier

  • Houston, Denver and Nashville Downtown Aquariums

  • Waitr (online delivery app)

  • several hotels in the Houston, TX area


One source reports that Rocket guards James Harden and Russell Westbrook may want out of Houston is because they have a problem with Fertitta’s support of T****.

If you are a pro-democracy patriot and happen to have a choice, consider choosing to not patronize any of Fertitta's establishments. He supports T**** and by implication, fascism.


Q: Can a person support T**** and not be a fascist in some form to some non-trivial extent?
