A New York gay bar responded to a claim by alt-right journalist Chadwick Moore they kicked him out for his ‘political ideology.’
Moore took to social media yesterday (30 March) to blast the Metropolitan gay bar in Brooklyn.
He wrote on Facebook: ‘I was just asked to leave Metropolitan Bar because my political ideology would cause a stir. I’ve been a regular there for 13 years. Any thoughts?’
Moore also tweeted the bar’s phone number for his supporters to back him up. As a result, people started flooding the Metropolitan Facebook page with negative reviews.
He then later tweeted: ‘I bought a round. Then was told, people don’t want you here. Then was escorted out, with my straight man friend.’
Moore: ‘I’m thrilled to dedicate my life to destroying you’
Metropolitan quickly responded on Facebook to the claim: ‘You have come in here quite frequently without incident.
‘We understand that your political views do not match ours, but that doesn’t mean you are not welcome here.
‘FACTS: You were asked to leave because your “brother-in-law who’s a straight guy from Alabama and a truck driver” (your words) started a fight at our sister bar right before you came here,’ they wrote.
The ‘sister bar’ in question – Macri Park Bar in Brooklyn – did not respond to the claim.

Moore responded defensively: ‘Absolute fake news. I’m far more aggressive than my brother. More neo-liberal hate mongering from the retarded coastal elites.
‘You are lying… You are fucking liars. I’m thrilled to dedicate my life to destroying you,’ he said.
The New York gay bar then told Hornet: ‘If you are asked to leave from one bar, you can take the night off from all the bars. We treated it as we do any other situation in that regard.’
‘This entire social media war on his part is upsetting, but we will not back down. We were just doing our job and will continue to do just that,’ they said.
He responded: ‘They are lying and I was targeted because my constitutional values offend the far left Marxists. And they don’t want me around. Simple.’
