Wisconsin Minocqua Brewing attacked by Weaponized Government

Like Joe Biden this is Good

I tend to shy away from ascribing certain over-determined explanations for Republican perfidy.  Therefore, every creepy rightwing YouTuber screaming about trans peoples genitals and groomers isn't necessarily closeted or a sex pest, although Steven Crowder and Matt Walsh are definitely rapist perverts.  And every accusation of a Weaponized Government by Republicans isn't a necessarily a confession of Republican desires.

But, in Minocqua, Wisconsin it most assuredly is;

A Northwoods brewpub known for marketing beers named after Democratic politicians had its ability to operate revoked Wednesday after a yearslong battle over local zoning rules. 

Under the decision by an Oneida County zoning committee, Minocqua Brewing Company would be forced to close its doors. Owner Kirk Bangstad has vowed to appeal the decision and remain open as long as possible.  

The dispute involved parking regulations and a contested plan by Bangstad to open an outdoor beer garden. But in social media posts and statements to news media, Bangstad has repeatedly claimed that he is being targeted by a conservative board because of his liberal political views. 

Kirk Bangstad's accusation is, undoubtably true.  Especially, since rightwingers have openly attacked his business in the past. Thanks to President Jimmy Carter, we are currently in a Renaissance of Craft Beer; even if psycho beer makers continue to foist hop-laden undrinkable IPAs upon the consumer.  Additionally, the Wisconsin legislature recently voted to change the laws regarding brewing, selling, and consuming alcohol across the state, as they were a mish-mash of anti-monopoly and prohibition era ideas about restricting consumption and keeping one company from controlling the entire means of production and distribution.  So, to cite Miocqua Brewing over this ticky-tack violation of zoning rules strikes directly to the heart of it being a vendetta against an openly liberal company and business owner.

If you've never been to the Minocqua region of Upper Wisconsin, it's a marshy land, festooned with numerous small lake waters.  It's heavily a tourist and summer rental area.  So it's not as if this is the insular land of Rightwing cousin-fvckers.  There's a market for Minocqua's beers.

“I am open for business until somebody puts a padlock on my business. They had planned this ahead of time to revoke my permit to do business. This was a charade. This whole meeting was a charade,” said Bangstad.

Oh, no this can't be right.  Republicans would never cancel a businessman!  Republicans would never use weaponized government against a company!  Corporations should never be constrained by government!  It must be pointed out over and over and over and over to get the Normies out there to understand.  Republicans and Rightwingers do not believe anything except power and do not adhere to the any of the principles they ostensibly believe in.

Republicans are immoral, unethical, unprincipled criminals who yearn to use the awesome power of government (at any level they control) to hurt and harm anyone who challenges them or who veers away from the rightwing agenda of hatred, intolerance, oppression, bigotry, and adulation of the rich.
