DAVID MARCUS: Free speech advocates should boycott Marriott after they canceled Andy Ngo's event under Antifa threats
If you thought that Disney and Bud Light had cornered the market on offending conservative consumers, I regret to inform you that Marriott has now kicked down the door and told Mickey Mouse to hold its beer in an incredible act of left wing censorship.
On Friday, journalist Andy Ngo was slated to appear in Virginia at the Richmond Commonwealth Club, but after left wing Antifa thugs posted about the event, demanding that followers call and complain at the venue until they caved. The venue canceled it, citing safety concerns, leaving the Common Sense Society, which was hosting Ngo, scrambling.
They found a room at the inn, the Richmond Westin, owned by Marriott to be exact, but no sooner did Antifa goons resume their online smears and calling campaign than the hotel folded like a beach chair to the cackling demands to silence Ngo.
Let’s be completely clear, what Marriott has done here is orders of magnitude worse than anything that Disney or Bud Light have done. The latter corporations may be pushing a dangerous ideology, but Marriott is the modern equivalent of the Woolworth lunch counter refusing to serve black people.
The entire raison d’etre of a hotel is to provide accommodation—including for meetings and conferences. Marriott has now decided that an entire class of Americans, namely those who criticize Antifa, will be denied service.
Maybe those who criticize Antifa, in their millions, should deny Marriott their business.
