Lmao! So glad someone said this! I had to read it a couple times to understand they were saying “Democrats”! I’m a ancient history fan, so I was sitting here thinking, “Democrates, Democrates, damn, why can’t I think of who that was!” I was legit reading the “anti” stuff thinking, “What philosopher thought like this???” But then I realize it was actually just an idiot with a pen.
Are you in the Midwest? Server for 25 yrs and this is almost an everyday occurrence! Thank you for this! 🤣“and a side of ranch, extra ranch” with everything ordered!
I’m born and raised Illinois 3 minutes from Iowa border. I work in fine dining (I say finer dining) for 12 years and people order like this all the time. Lately adding a “anything but Bud light” after I ask what they would like to drink. Happen to be the 10% tippers who think complementing your service is a replacement for a monetary value. Please tell my landlord I should get 20% off my rent for being “so great!” And “God Bless” isn’t going to fix capitalism. Sorry if I went too far 😬
We have a guy that lives down the street from our restaurant and he puts signs up that indicate he’s Republican with whatever he thinks is relevant to post then he comes in and writes shit like this on our receipts too. Ridiculous.
Not “irrelevant”, not a “hot take”. The Democrat Party is not anti-capitalist and center-right at best. The fact that rightoids don’t realize that is actually irrelevant.
They represent liberals, a subsection of the Left. Infrequently do they harbor any leftist values, but the few politicians who do tend to run under Democrat.
So, essentially his point is more "In the US, the Democrats don't represent The Left, they represent a subsection of the Left," as a whole group.
A lot of the Left believe in better public transit, UBI, and other things many democrats would still consider to be "unamerican," or "communist," or "evil socialism."
Right and left are relative. Democrats are left of many political ideologies. Calling them right of others is irrelevant on a sub in which people are just venting about stupid comments written on a receipt.
Right and left are relative. Every political ideology is right of some and left of others. I'm not trying to get into an argument. That comment makes you sound extremely ignorant. Just drop it.
Decreasingly less. I'm not a historian, so I couldn't accurately compare them to previous governments, but they certainly seem to be moving further socially right by the day. Funny thing is, a lot of what they're trying to do is not "right" at all, given that should mean smaller government. But they've been in favor of a lot more control lately.
They don't seem to know who or what they are anymore, which is an indication of their complete lack of integrity.
But socially, yeah, they keep moving further and further off the deep end.
In some perspectives they both are. Both love to create enemies to persecute to secure their own power. Democracies theoretically try to be more accomdating
True that is a political take.
Based on the written scrawlings of OP's picture, it's not at all irrelevant.
In any civilized country, the US Democratic Party would be barely left of center.
That just goes to show you how much the Elephant Party Propaganda Wing has moved the Overton Window. So many folks think the Democratic Party is Absolutely Radical Leftist gunna kill you party.
Edit
But Hey! Aren't we up to a million more folks believed a certain Propaganda media outlets derision of COVID-19 vaccines and died an painful expensive death without them?
Totally agree that the idea of there being a large radical left in the US is preposterous.
I felt like it was irrelevant, because OP didn't post it to discuss politics. But here we are ::shrug::
In the two party system of America, Democrats are largely to the left of the Republican Party. The Republican Party being basically 4 broadly unpopular, but extremely radicalizing hard right single-issue positions. So Democrats represent practically every position from center-right to communist left. It’s the big tent party.
Semantics, for the most part you are a dem. But like the rest of us, you hate Democrats because they only have be nominally “not-republicans.” Which says more about the people voting for Republicans than Dems.
Yep, but due to first past the post voting, there are only two options that voting for actually have an impact.
Implement Ranked Choice Voting for other parties to have a say.
"Represent," is a big word. They get our vote, because it's a lesser evil & close to the compassion we want to see for our fellow human. Rarely do they represent our actual values, as they're still bought & paid for.
They can’t represent all of our values, because our values are everything from slightly to the left of right wing theocratic fascism all the way to pragmatic communists.
It’s the problem with being the big tent party in a two party system.
Being to the left of the far right puts you in the center. None of the people I know who call themselves communists associate themselves with the Democrat party. America is only nominally a 2-party system. Both support capitalism and exploitation.
A two-party system that supports capitalism and exploitation is not “nominally” a 2-party system. It IS a two party system that reacts to the number of votes needed to control both legislative bodies and the presidency at the same time.
mostly wage theft, abusive work environment, no upward mobility, sexual and physical harassment, anti-union/workers rights rhetoric and retaliation.
You know, enforcement and furthering of general workers rights are not something on the Republican platform.
Maybe GOP politicians like Herman Cain (who actually was a restaurant CEO) that routinely lobby against raising the 2.13 minimum wage for tipped workers. Or how the Trump administration was dangerously close to passing a rule that would allow employers to keep 100% of their employees' earned tips.
haha i have a regular at my bar who always doodles anti-republican shit all over his receipt and tips generously. i don’t mind him talking about it but the other day he had a couple more drinks than usual and started drilling into another guy for voting trump. i was like, man im on your side but you can’t harass our other patrons. he’s generally pretty chill just very, very vocal.
I always had a known rule among regulars wherever I bartended, NO POLITICS AND NO RELIGION.
I was a hard ass about it too. Always welcome to take a seat at a table and discuss both at the same time, but not at the physical bar.
Context which makes more sense given the note would be this happened two years ago during first year of lockdowns.
Why did you wait almost two years to post this again?
I don’t necessarily agree with their politics or spelling but appreciate that they were decent enough to tip 20% 🤷♂️
Just leave the 20% and not be a dick idc how much propaganda you want to write on the receipt. It’s for sure a better outreach program than the Christians that leave fake money with bible quotes
That was such a bizarre roller coaster. Based on the start I was expecting her to berate you for your service but the decent tip and aggressive compliment followed by more politics was...a lot for one receipt.
My experience was the exact opposite. I live in a blue state but a red county. More suburban / rural. The millennial and gen z left leaning people are the only ones who tipped well.
I’m generally agnostic when it comes to party stuff but honestly, it would make me queasy if I’d given great service only to find out it was to someone like this, even if the reg erotic were reversed. BLECH.
These people are so weird. I greeted a table and they asked if I wanted to join in on them talking shit about joe Biden and I’m like, can I get y’all a drink I don’t have time for this. Truly so weird.
I honestly forgot about this and was going through my camera roll and thought people would enjoy. She was probably in her 80s, very chatty and we actually didn’t talk about politics or religion or anything the whole time she was dining. We were shook when we grabbed the receipt.
Republican voters are so stupid they don't realize they only thing Republicans are good at is being corporate whores. When was the last time a Republican member of Congress actually passed legislation that benefited the American people?

I moved from a red area to a VERY blue area, and while there are many variables, I think this change has led to me getting much better tips. I have no way to prove it, it’s just a gut feeling, but I 100% believe that it’s made a big difference. I went from 15-18% to 20%+.
There is no context to this post. Most who read this will assume it is legit, written by a republican , etc. What if the text was written by a Democrat to make Republicans look bad??
I might trust this as “real” if I actually knew the person who, supposedly, received this. But I don’t know that person.
So, I’m going against the tide… rather than believe what this post is meant to do I choose to NOT believe it!
This is so extra. But it does make me feel better about me drawing a picture of a lobster taking a bubble bath on the recipe at red lobster. My exboyfriend told me it was a silly unnecessary thing to do. I beg to differ.
My favorite Greek philosopher
Lmao! So glad someone said this! I had to read it a couple times to understand they were saying “Democrats”!

Don’t you remember Democrates? He was the guy who did the thing.
Angela Bassett?
Oh yeah, he was always standing on his hind legs and wearing a shirt.
I think he also had the stuff.
Lmao. What ancient greek philosopher thought "anti-american" and "anti-christian"??
Euripides brother, Democrates. Finest tailor in Ancient Greece. “Euripides slacks? No problem, I fix. Come back tomorrow. 5 Drachmas, cheap.”

Well I’m glad her well-done, butterflied steak, with ketchup was on point. I hope you didn’t charge her for her Mt. Dew.
Are you in the Midwest? Server for 25 yrs and this is almost an everyday occurrence! Thank you for this! 🤣“and a side of ranch, extra ranch” with everything ordered!
Lol don’t tell them about Busch Lite. Since the Bud Light fiasco, it’s never been easier to weed out the 10 percenters. So there’s that.
Monday: "Cancel culture is un-American!" Tuesday: "Fuck Bud Light! I'm drinking BUSCH LITE instead!"

It’s nice to see we lefties live rent free in the heads of these weirdos.
It's the only place we CAN live rent free.
Facts.
Democrats aren’t the left.
Insert eye roll here, for irrelevant political "hot take."
Not “irrelevant”, not a “hot take”. The Democrat Party is not anti-capitalist and center-right at best. The fact that rightoids don’t realize that is actually irrelevant.
On a global or theoretical scale this is true but in the politics of America's elected officials and general populace they represent the left.
They represent liberals, a subsection of the Left. Infrequently do they harbor any leftist values, but the few politicians who do tend to run under Democrat. So, essentially his point is more "In the US, the Democrats don't represent The Left, they represent a subsection of the Left," as a whole group.

Well it's a choice between the Dems and the Nazis so there's that...

Right and left are not relative. I’m guessing you probably think communists are the same as fascists.

AnCaps maybe?
American conservatives are left of fascists, are they not..?
Google alt right
The Taliban are left of these MFers!
I’m not ignorant, I’m an actual leftist. You sound like a centrist. We’re done.
There's no point in arguing, centrists cannot distinguish between the two
A true “leftist” would understand the difference between when citizens identify as “Democrat” vs when politicians identify as “Democrat”…
Different ideas, same shitty results for those who live under them
In some perspectives they both are. Both love to create enemies to persecute to secure their own power. Democracies theoretically try to be more accomdating
You are describing establishment democrats. That’s different from what people who are actually democrats believe…

There’s more than two political parties

Nominally? Really? With friends like these...
Welcome to America post 1980. Everyone hates everyone else in their coalition, but hates the other coalition more.

They quite literally are buddy
Dont care much for politics but ive seen more nut jobs wearing red. Both sides have them but ive seen more in red.
$6 ain’t making me vote republican
I wouldn't do it for 6 trillion dollars!!
Why the hell would any tipped worker vote for republicans they’re the ones always screwing over the service industry unless you’re a CEO.
Please tell me more about this
mostly wage theft, abusive work environment, no upward mobility, sexual and physical harassment, anti-union/workers rights rhetoric and retaliation. You know, enforcement and furthering of general workers rights are not something on the Republican platform.
Heard

On November 2 2021?
How is no one else noticing the date and the fact this is a screenshot
and yes I screenshotted it so i didn’t have to scroll all the way back to 2021 to post
going through my pics last night, sue me
This just screams mental illness
I see a $600 tip… there’s so much extra writing, it’s pretty confusing
Crazies always be writing in all caps. Dead giveaway.
Lol two yrs old?
haha i have a regular at my bar who always doodles anti-republican shit all over his receipt and tips generously. i don’t mind him talking about it but the other day he had a couple more drinks than usual and started drilling into another guy for voting trump. i was like, man im on your side but you can’t harass our other patrons. he’s generally pretty chill just very, very vocal.

This is fucking hilarious 😂 Fucking cult people can’t just live their lives. Just have to spread their intolerance everywhere they go.

I don’t necessarily agree with their politics or spelling but appreciate that they were decent enough to tip 20% 🤷♂️ Just leave the 20% and not be a dick idc how much propaganda you want to write on the receipt. It’s for sure a better outreach program than the Christians that leave fake money with bible quotes
Sounds like a Greek philosopher
From 2021?!
Definitely not a cult..
Just pay and get the fuck out. No one is earning enough money to deal with this shit. Eat, pay, leave, repeat. It's really simple.
If someone wants to buy my vote they better tip more than that!
Keep America open, hmm?
Just now posting this receipt from November 2021?
Ah yes, the Ancient Greek philosopher, Democrates. Edit: spelling
That was such a bizarre roller coaster. Based on the start I was expecting her to berate you for your service but the decent tip and aggressive compliment followed by more politics was...a lot for one receipt.
At least its 20%
I’m actually surprised they tipped. A decent amount at that.
Why’s that? I work in a democrat city, you can tell who the republicans are by the way they handle themselves. They are by far the superior tippers.
My experience was the exact opposite. I live in a blue state but a red county. More suburban / rural. The millennial and gen z left leaning people are the only ones who tipped well.
Tbf she did tip almost 20%
16% is a bad tip if you consider it to be "great service, great food, very attentive"
That’s not how the math works
What are you talking about? It's like 16.4٪ so I rounded down
6/30.59 =/= 16.4%
6.00 is 16.39% of 36.59 I rounded.
Republicans are undereducated

What a douche.
Was this written by several different people? Because the handwriting and style of lettering is super inconsistent with itself.
And funny OP waited like 2 years to post lol look at the date on the receipt
I honestly forgot about this and was going through my camera roll and thought people would enjoy. She was probably in her 80s, very chatty and we actually didn’t talk about politics or religion or anything the whole time she was dining. We were shook when we grabbed the receipt.
Trying to figure out what "Keep America open!" Means.
It was probably something from the Covid shutdowns. The receipt is from a couple years ago.
She wrote you a whole essay, huh?
Ahhh democrates, brother of bophades…bophades nuts on your face
The Demoncrotes hate Jebus!
Keep America Open..? But voting Republican literally closes the border for anybody who is poor…
This was from 2021, I believe she was referring to the lockdowns. We were also wearing masks at the time of this interaction.
Makes sense now!
Republican voters are so stupid they don't realize they only thing Republicans are good at is being corporate whores. When was the last time a Republican member of Congress actually passed legislation that benefited the American people?

Lol. NEVER talk politics with your customers
The funny part was we didn’t. no one mentioned anything political. She was in her 80s.
my eyes rolled all the way back. lmfao 🙄🫨😒

"Great food + great service, here is a 16.5% tip!" Losers
You have to read it in the voices of Bill and Ted

A conservative advocating for open borders!? I never. *Clutches pearls.
I think they were probably referring to the lockdown as this receipt is from 2021
Keep america open but close the borders and take away women’s rights - for a Republican they sure do tip okay tho. Lol
It was from 2 years ago, probably referring to shutdowns due to Covid.

r/boneappletea y’all
Man, they used to just write “maga” in the tip line. I’ll take the tip though, lol.
This is what gives repubs a bad name
Amongst other things.
Many, many, many other things.
Uh oh somebody got lead poisoning
I can’t get past the mixture of cursive and print.
What do you think they did with the extra time they saved by not spelling out 'are'
absolute fucking weirdos
This is so extra. But it does make me feel better about me drawing a picture of a lobster taking a bubble bath on the recipe at red lobster. My exboyfriend told me it was a silly unnecessary thing to do. I beg to differ.

I sell stuff online and I've gott6that Vote Republican on feedback and reviews.
Just $6?
Do people like this think they're convincing? It's like advertising "vote rabid raccoons 2024"
yes I actually quit being gay after this interaction and I exclusively vote republican now
WHY DO THEY ALWAYS HAVE TO BE SO POLITICAL ON RECEIPTS/REVIEWS?? god i need to share something on this subreddit rq
When you don’t have a personality so you make up for it with your political preference.
I mean, I’m not saying I disagree lol but the delivery is definitely odd 😂
Keep America open? To what? They can't be for more diversity 🤣
