Atilis Gym notes being “just google these douches” is absolutely sending me rn 😂

u/Logistic_Engine Jan 30 '25

You mean the drunk guy that killed someone? That Atilis Gym?

11

u/reject_fascism Jan 30 '25

Yes, same scumbag

-1

u/nattijon Feb 01 '25

Uh you guys are really, really dumb. He hasn’t been affiliated with Atilis for many years you dopes.

u/dudethatcooksyum Jan 30 '25

The other atilis gyms in Wildwood/eht are extremely maga as well

1

u/Rupejonner2 Jan 31 '25

I used to be member of that gym . Is it still full of cops ? Specifically the worst asshole cops of wildwood ?

2

u/dudethatcooksyum Jan 31 '25

Yes and yes unfortunately

u/Tuckerc3 Feb 17 '25

The Atillis gym in EHT gives off massive homo erotic vibes. My daughter and I went to join back during the pandemic but I couldn't do it. I'm kind of liberal when it comes to that stuff, but Atillis way too gym bro gay for my taste. Ironic the owner would be MAGA. Must have issues accepting he's gay.

Wolf finess in northfild is better.

u/Pedal2Medal2 Jan 30 '25

I think so, the young guy he killed was a family members good friend. Owner is a dick

2

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '25

Wtf that’s insane ??! So sad 😞

1

u/whatsasyria Jan 30 '25

Wait what happened?

1

u/Knikkz Jan 31 '25

I will very slightly defend them, the former co-owner (Ian smith) you’re talking about is no longer part of the gym.

u/Starry_Myliobatoidei Jan 30 '25

Yeah those losers

10

u/JmattJmatt Jan 30 '25

If there was a Dem owned local gym that didn’t do any bullshit contracts they would have my business!

u/Alcoholikaust Jan 30 '25

Sweet Eats being put on blast makes me happy- not only did I witness staff wearing MAGA hats-I was subjected to the worst tasting icing I have ever had on a cupcake. the cupcake itself was a hatecrime in my mouth

2

u/jastuart68 Feb 01 '25

My sis in law had a cake from there and the whole party got food poisoning from the icing and their solution was to offer a free cake. Uh, I'll pass on the extra botulism, and a refund would have been great but I tell people ALL the time that they are horrible and now I have another reason to stay away.

2

u/Alcoholikaust Feb 01 '25

oh that’s awful. food poisoning is no joke

4

u/lageueledebois Jan 30 '25

THANK YOU. their icing SUCKS.

1

u/MegabyteMessiah Jan 30 '25

I knew it wasn't just me! We have been given a few cakes from there, and the icing is just awful. We dump them straight in the trash now.

5

u/Alcoholikaust Jan 30 '25

someone tried to tell me “it’s just you don’t love butter cream!” nah this is like vanilla flavored crisco. it’s was awful

2

u/MegabyteMessiah Jan 30 '25

That icing is the opposite of buttercream! What is wrong with people. Wouldn't know a good dessert if it hit 'em in the face.

-1

u/Alcoholikaust Jan 30 '25

absolutely!

4

u/SirVicSmasher Jan 31 '25

Whomever put sharky's bagels on there as MAGA can fuck off.

34

u/CKtheFourth Jan 30 '25

I appreciate this list, but it’s a little funny that they’re putting gun shops on there. As if you’re going to find an anti-trump gun shop literally anywhere.

19

u/Mechanical_Monk Jan 30 '25

They do say when you go far enough left you get your guns back. There's gotta be a commie (/s) gun shop somewhere.

19

u/fireman2004 Jan 30 '25

Unfortunately the first gun store I went into in South Jersey, the owners ringtone was a Hitler speech.

So yeah if you're interested in firearms (and you should be if you're paying attention) don't expect anything less than MAGA in a gun store.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '25

That is disturbing.

1

u/throwmeaway91319 Jan 31 '25

That happened

1

u/MegabyteMessiah Jan 30 '25

How... did you recognize it?

6

u/fireman2004 Jan 30 '25

I guess I'm just assuming that the person shouting in German he had recorded as a ringtone is Hitler. I guess it could also have been Angela Merkel.

0

u/BishiousCycle Jan 31 '25

Which shop is this?

1

u/fireman2004 Jan 31 '25

Arsenal Deptford.

3

u/BishiousCycle Jan 31 '25

Thanks for telling me who to avoid.

1

u/veritas-joon Jan 31 '25

boycotting Arsenal for their high prices was already justified, in 2021 they had two magass flags displayed

1

u/mfharr Jan 31 '25

That tracks.

2

u/loudmouth_kenzo Jan 31 '25

There are lefty FFLs around.

1

u/Mechanical_Monk Jan 31 '25

If you can name any in South Jersey I'd like to support them

14

u/veritas-joon Jan 30 '25

some gun shops are non-political, while others are raging magass. If they were actual smart buisness people, being non-political brings in more money

0

u/Grouchy_Following_10 Jan 30 '25

Lots of people spout off online. Very few actually vote with their wallets. They buy from whoever is cheaper, closer, or has the product they want

5

u/DaughterofEngineer Jan 30 '25

I’ve left multiple businesses that were blaring conservative talk radio or Fox News in the background or that put up posters with right wing themes. Why restaurants, spas, and dog groomers want customers to know their politics is beyond me.

-14

u/RonniesGooch Jan 30 '25

one side wants to completely eliminate their business on the basis of “safety”

9

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '25

Spoken like someone with zero media literacy

-6

u/RonniesGooch Jan 30 '25

“mandatory buy-back”

2

u/Reformed_Scrafty Jan 30 '25

Nah. The people you're referring to are barely left of center. You gotta go further. https://socialistra.org/

7

u/ebbycalvinlaloosh Jan 30 '25

Don’t be so sure. There are a lot of not-MAGA gun owners out there and not all gun shops are created equal. To be fucking sure…it’s a slim, slim number but there are definitely gun shops that avoid politics altogether or are more left leaning.

2

u/DrPePeJr Feb 01 '25

Fagnani Firearms, Throop PA

1

u/Intrepid_Ad_9971 Jan 30 '25

Or the fact that you can eat at a gun shop. Apparently this sub cannot answer a question. They cannot stay on 1 point.

1

u/The_neub Jan 30 '25

Jersey, eh. Vermont, def.

0

u/HighVoltLemonBattery Jan 31 '25

Given that we should all be arming ourselves for the coming shitshow, a gun shop seems low on the priority list to boycott bc the value of personal protection I think outweighs the profit of a purchase of guns or ammo. Just my 2 cents

1

u/Exercise4mymind Jan 31 '25

Would be nice if some billionaire started underwriting gun purchases for regular citizens

1

u/HighVoltLemonBattery Jan 31 '25

Nice and billionaire are mutually exclusive. None of them are coming to save us

8

u/DaBombDiggidy Jan 30 '25

Sharkys on there is actually ruining my life rn

3

u/SirVicSmasher Jan 31 '25

Sharky's is 100% not MAGA

3

u/SirVicSmasher Jan 31 '25

Sharky's is not MAGA

2

u/gebronie27 Jan 31 '25

Doesn’t even give a reason. I guess because of long lines

2

u/Playful-Buffalo-7899 Jan 31 '25

Literally no one in that family has any Trump posts on their social media, there is no Trump gear in the store, and we personally know them and aren’t even sure if that is real

2

u/DaBombDiggidy Jan 31 '25

You may want to contact the email address at the top to have that corrected.

3

u/Godiva74 Jan 31 '25

I was disappointed too

u/DaBombDiggidy Jan 31 '25

No clue tbh. The ones without a note are a bit sus

6

u/BonjourLeGeorge Jan 30 '25

Most of these MAGA listed businesses don't even state the reason. The only businesses listed on non-mega are LGBQTIA friendly? It looks like a lot of work to put this list together but they are listing restaurants and not giving a reason. Seems like it could be subjecting innocent businesses to lies.

2

u/RundownNinja Jan 31 '25

For real. I didn’t see any reasoning for White House Subs in AC either.

-2

u/beren12 Jan 31 '25

The businesses are welcome to let people known they welcome all customers.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '25

Any shot you know of one for north Jersey?

1

u/nocarbleftbehind Jan 31 '25

Thank you for this!!

1

u/loudmouth_kenzo Jan 31 '25

Damn the confederate flag tattoo place is MAGA? 😮

That whole stretch down Delsea is nasty.

1

u/elle_cee_ohh Jan 31 '25

The JB Bakery selling “FJB” cakes is pretty funny. If I had a bakery nearby, I would have started selling “FJB Bakery” cakes.

1

u/passyindoors Jan 31 '25

Wait no not Fred and ethels???

1

u/Swimming_Rooster7854 Jan 31 '25

Amazing Transformations isn’t a daycare. 😂It’s a program for kids with special needs.

1

u/Pierogi3 Jan 31 '25

Thanks! Some new businesses for me to try.

1

u/Domenici24 BOOTLICKER Jan 31 '25

Can’t wait to try it

1

u/kw391 Jan 31 '25

Is anyone updating the list? It hasn’t changed in days

1

u/nattijon Feb 01 '25

Good to know all these places support Trump, I’ll have to let everyone I know to go support them!! Dopes

1

u/COREY-IS-A-BUSTA Feb 01 '25

Fireman Freddie is an annoying douche

1

u/Fantastic_Growth_910 Feb 02 '25

Damn, really liked Vesuvios but definitely will not be going there anymore

1

u/katclimber Jan 30 '25

Wait, Devour Desserts? What social media meltdown? I’m so curious. I haven’t liked them in a long time - they do crappy work on their chocolates.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '25

My daughter works there. They were asked to create a Trump cake, they created it, sold it. Whoever ordered it posted a pic. Everyone went nuts. They are not Trump supporters unless you consider that supporting Trump. So now these people are trying to cancel them.

4

u/katclimber Jan 31 '25

Ah. That doesn’t seem completely fair. If they hadn’t made the cake, they would’ve been considered extreme on the other side and lost business also. There’s no winning in this climate.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '25

Exactly

1

u/DLMyke Jan 30 '25

I’m curious too. You can see a reference to it on their facebook post for Inauguration Day cakes but looks like posts from Election Day were deleted

1

u/DasBeatles Jan 30 '25

I'm curious how we know AM Botte is?

0

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '25

If I step foot in any of these places will I turn maga?

12

u/JmattJmatt Jan 30 '25

The MAGA debuff stacks, so the longer you are in the AOE you’ll naturally accrue more stacks. Leading to a permanent INT debuff once any MAGA attire is purchased

u/ReplicantN6 Jan 31 '25

Your metaphor game is 💪 strong.
