Five Years After Covid, a Lesbian Bar Finally Relaxed Its Covid Mask Policy, Which Required Wearing a KN-95 Mask at All Times.
The Backlash Is, Get This, Unhinged.

Five years after covid.

I just want to make it clear that this is five years after covid.

Five years after covid, and they're still shrieking and shrilling over a bar relaxing a requirement to wear KN-95 masks.

Not banning the masks. Just not requiring them. Now, they're only suggested.

Oh -- and the requirement is only relaxed one night per week. On Saturday.

All other days of the week -- mask up. Covid will kill you.

Five years later, and the left-wing lesbian Karens are having a meltdown.

A Western Mass. lesbian bar required KN-95 masks. When it changed the rules, all hell broke loose.
The August 31 Instagram post from Last Ditch Bar and Arts Venue, a lesbian bar in Greenfield, was upbeat, teasing a new DJ lineup and a volunteer meetup. But partway down the rainbow-hued post labeled "UPDATES!" was a sentence that would splinter the queer community in this small Pioneer Valley city and beyond.

"It is with love we inform our immunocompromised disabled divas we will be opening Saturday nights as mask optional," wrote Last Ditch.
Previously, patrons were required to wear a well-fitted KN-95 mask "or better" at all times.
The new policy was not received with love.
"Just say you're being complicit in a mass disabling event and get it over with," wrote one commenter.
"people like you kill disabled people in the name of your own leisure and convenience," posted another.

This is almost as spicy as the Intercepted Reddit Messages.

"I hope your venue gets firebombed for robbing my fellow immunocompromised people of their Saturday plans just to scrape extra revenue from ablists [sic]," wrote a third.

The thread grew to 442 comments, some supportive, but many furious.

Leftists furious about something they think they're "owed" but aren't getting?!

This. Changes. Everything.

The people running the bar were accused of being ableist -- eugenicist, even -- for relaxing their signature policy in the face of what commenters consider an ongoing pandemic (Greenfield hasn't reported any COVID cases in more than two months).
Two days later, Last Ditch posted an apology. "We are sorry for our passive and dismissive tone of our change to the norms and schedule impacting the most intersectional of us," management wrote on Instagram. "We understand everyone faces different intersections and we are always working to consider all needs fully."

Now, you're not going to believe this, but it turns out that apologizing to an SJW does not appease them, but encourages them to become even more shrill and hateful in demanding further concessions.

Instead of defusing the situation, the apology seemed to make things worse. The bar had erred: it posted an Instagram card without providing alt-text for the visually impaired. This set off a fresh round of accusations of ableism.
"This is not an accessible post," wrote one user. "It indicates the lack of care or interest in Disability intersectionality."
...
Quaint, crunchy Greenfield (population 17,700) isn't a bad place for a COVID-cautious lesbian bar in 2026, all things considered. Rainbow flags deck store windows downtown. On a recent weekend, a community theater was advertising a workshop for masked performers, down the street from a bookstore with a "medical masks required" sign in the window. Men in ponytails and N-95s were ordering hibiscus tea from the coffee shop off the main square.
Greenfield is close, both physically and spiritually, to Northampton, sometimes referred to as "Lesbianville, U.S.A." In the Pioneer Valley, "every bar is a lesbian bar," a friend who lives there told me.
Nevertheless, Last Ditch, which opened last year as a bar for "dykes, transsexuals, gender freaks, workers, and their friends," is struggling.
...
"Our mission is to create systems of care and action and aid," says Jackie Matellian, one of the founders.
When it first opened, Last Ditch did fairly well. Customers fondly remember a raucous opening night with a (clothed) simulation of a lesbian sex act -- masks in place -- on the dance floor.

How dare Sydney Sweeney sexualize women.

But over time, foot traffic to the bar slowed. More and more visitors said they didn't have the cover fee; the bar let them in anyway. The owners fell behind on bills and couldn't pay themselves or the people who worked there. So, after consulting with the Massachusetts LGBT Chamber of Commerce, they came up with a plan to bend one of their rules -- and hopefully attract more customers.
...
One of Last Ditch's most vocal critics, the head of another queer COVID-conscious collective in Western Massachusetts, a performer and artist who goes by Soe Noire, has been posting complaints about Last Ditch for days. Now, Noire joins the meeting on Zoom. He and other critics begin to flood the Zoom chat with irate messages, which are dutifully read aloud to the group.

"He"? Is this a trans "man" by any chance?

"Noire" is the feminine form of "Noir." Does "he" know that?

...
When it comes time for one of the mediators, a licensed therapist, to speak, she takes a conciliatory tone.
"I love that you are here online," she says. But "these platforms alienate us from each other. I'm talking about social media." She asks whether participants can try to remove themselves from "places of righteousness."
"I would love to get to a place where we all know each other's face, where we all know each other's name," she continues.
"It's messed up that the mediator is dismissing those attending virtually. That's not accessibility," someone responds in the chat.<
"A lot of people are calling for an acknowledgment of harm and I'm hearing a WHITE therapist ... center[ing] the feelings of a majority white and white adjacent staff," writes Noire, who is Black.

No shit really?

The owner tried to femsplain that she was losing money and deeply in debt and felt she had to do something to increase patronage -- or matronage -- or else she'd have to close it down.

Showing weakness to an SJW is never a good move.

"I never really wanted to do this," Matellian says, beginning to cry under her mask. "I don't think I'm doing a very good job."
Matellian tells the group her credit score is trashed. For six months, she lived in her truck because she was pouring money into the bar. She is working four different jobs. She is responsible for paying off the $50,000 loan the three took out to launch the business.
The online critics are unmoved. "[Y]ou chose to use your time to spill tears and center your feelings," Noire posts in the chat. "This is incredibly racist and deflecting behavior."
...
Last Ditch's landlord wants $3,900 in back rent by Monday.
Noire spends the hours after the meeting posting furious Instagram stories about Matellian and Last Ditch. Matellian (who uses she/they pronouns) had been shedding "WHITE THEY THEM TEARS," he writes. The bar was not "a safe environment nor interested in revolutionary praxis."

Oh, a business is not primarily a vehicle for revolutionary communist praxis?

Praxis is a bullshit term that just means "practice" -- there is theory, and then there is praxis, putting theory into practice. Stupid uneducated communists use an obscure Latin word that means "practice" to make their stupid ideas sound smart.

Why not just say "practice"? Because that wouldn't sound -- how many quotation marks do I have to use to express my sneering revulsion -- " " " " " " smart " " " " " " like "praxis" does.

Now we delve into the mystery of Noire's many-layered sexual identity, and it's as fake and gay and stupid as you were expecting.

I reach Noire, who identifies as a gender-expansive lesbian and uses he/him pronouns, by Zoom a few days later. I ask whether he has any sympathy for those running Last Ditch, given the profound financial strain they are under. "No," he replies. (Noire asked to be referred to by his stage name because he says he has been stalked and fears for his safety.) "I'm not going to give grace" when someone is "spreading rhetoric that can and will get people hurt," he says, referring to the fact that the bar's account had "liked" a few comments supporting the relaxed rule.
Noire, who lives about 50 minutes south of Greenfield, estimates he has visited the bar seven or eight times. But he won't return unless there is new leadership. "You can't repair a house that's on fire," he says.

"He's" been there eight fucking times and "he" acts like he owns the place.

I remember a comment on Last Ditch's original announcement, after the pile-on had begun: @scream_guy_wazzzuuuuuuup asked, "i'm sorry, all 400 of these crazy people live in GREENFIELD MASSACHUSETTS????"
I ask whether the people behind the angriest posts have genuine connections to the bar -- are they real customers?
Young and Matellian say yes, they know many of the detractors.
"There are people that are close to us and love us who are really disappointed in our decision, and that is completely understandable," says Young, who says her sister is one of the vocal critics online. "Like, it's so understandable why they feel hurt by the way we did it and the fact that we did it."
"They have passion for the space," Matellian adds.

Just one more glimpse of the seething hormonal insanity:

Just after midnight, one patron is left at the bar, a regular who works at the Mexican restaurant next door. She wonders aloud about holding a Lady Gaga themed night, but Mixxy demurs. "Gaga is canceled," she says. "Gaga is Zionist."

The Boston Globe ran a graphic showing some of the unhinged comments:

Here are some of them. Different messages are separated by line breaks.

the lack of masks in spaces literally kills people & stops disabled people from participating in society.
I hope your venue gets firebombed for robbing my fellow immunocompromised people of their Saturday plans just to scrape extra revenue from ablists
Like was this deliberately written to be alienating, rude, and ableist??
enjoy contributing to national covid spikes and potentially catching covid on mask optional nights then
just say you don't want to be around queer disabled people and be done with it. 🙏🏼

I love the use of "prayer hands" in a hateful message.

YOU'VE just decided that disabled peoples lives are debatable. And that's fine, it's pretty typical of white leftists.
It feels wildly insensitive and dismissive
Being in community requires tolerating discomfort. The cost of not masking for many is lifelong disability via long covid

Oh, she's on disability. You and I are paying for her to sit on her couch and scream hate into the internet every day.

seeing these people whine about masks being a little inconvenient for them is INFURIATING.
how could we consider you "community" if you act in a way that is killing us.
if youre only concerned with protecting yourself at the cost of DEATH for others, you are no better than a fascist.
What is truly being WILD is announcing a change of this magnitude in a cavalier, callous fashion.
if you spread diseases that disable and kill, you do not "love me".
Does COVlD not disable people on Saturday nights? Very confused by the disregard for community care
A venue wouldn't run a "hatred and discrimination night" to ensure that prejudiced people have a night where they feel included. Inclusivity is about setting basic standards for human dignitity.
people like you kill disabled people in the name of your own leisure and convenience.
if this were the AIDS epidemic, youd be on the side of people who were against prophylactics and who believed AIDS patients should be hidden from the public, left to die alone.
shut up, ablism apologist. Gods, I'd bet money you are even more horrible to black queer people if you can't even sit your ability privileged ass down and listen to disabled queers.
As others have shared, my family is also withdrawing financial support due to the decision and its truly heartless presentation to the community. It's not too late to reverse this decision and apologize
If u wanna pander to capitalism and white supremacy go right ahead, you wouldn't be the first white and white adjacent people in history to do so.
How performative and grotesque.
Classic white and white aligned people and their "nice" culture it's so backhanded!!!
spreading deadly and disabling disease IS violent and YOU should educate YOURself.
just bc the vast majority of humans in this society don't care about killing or disabling others, that doesn't make it okay
Not having a mask requirement on Saturdays IS going to spread disease, it IS going to cause re infection, and trans and black folks (who are high risk to long Covid and complications) CAN and WILL die from this.
What a complete joke. Of course you and LD think it's "silly" because black and disabled peoples collective health are disposable to yall.

I'm seeing a lot of "deserving" talk here. A lot of entitlement.

The "with love" also lands really hollow since it's followed by a "but we decided to not care about protecting you on Saturdays". Shameful misalignment of values to praxis, and disappointing to see.

"anti-profit" bar but they cater to capital within a year lol

some people cannot afford to get sick. These people deserve to have a space that is safe for them to socialize because they cannot go anywhere else.
i am hurt and upset by your glib and flippant attitude around it ESPECIALLY given your entire mission and foundation was based on creating a masked space for the immunocompromised community
Just say you're being complicit in a mass disabling event and get it over with
i will continue to navigate feeling excluded by a large portion of the wmass queer community as i have been for many years now

disabled folks don't have other spaces we can frequent, largely because of people like you who've accepted the culture of ableism and don't want to mask to keep their communities safe.
Everyone is at risk of Long COVID. Everyone can and will experience multiply disabling impacts from repeat infections
masking isn't just for disabled folks. everyone is at risk. masking is community care. this establishment, apparently, is not
what a massive bummer.
Yikes on bikes.

Yikes on bikes indeed.

Communists, mentally-ill dregs, and bitter entitled invalids on disability are not the kind of customer base that results in a prosperous business.

Meanwhile: Why are people turning on the "queer community"? I can't figure it out.

Usually ugly bullies and nasty mentally-ill people are so popular and beloved!

These people are exhausting.

13 Masks were always a spiritual fetish for these people. Most humans crave religion and masks gave leftists all the trapping of religion without any moral requirements.
Masks show their devotion to the belief system and display their virtue at the same time. Masks also give them an opportunity to judge others and to force them to conform. All without having to actually do anything virtuous, helpful, kind or even useful.

All the hallmarks of a horrible, horrible religion.

That X post is overblown. She had a bag to carry stuff that was rainbow color striped and the father of the bride asked her to put it away, he didn't want any QWERTY stuff at the wedding. According to her, she complied and did the job she was paid to do, but was upset enough to post about it. She's bisexual by the way, no Lezbo uggo, assuming she's the brunette in the vid. The blonde doesn't need a mask either, could be her. Vid cuts out before they started making out.

87 Hoo boy. From a little over a year ago:

Mask Required Lesbian Bar in Greenfield MA
My wife and I went to Last Ditch Bar on Saturday night. It's a mask-required lesbian bar! Woo-hooooooo!!!

Some stuff about me:
I would consider myself a militant covid realist.

I have been involved in disability access community work since 2015. I have been guided in my mitigation strategy by disabled organizers.

I live with chronic pain (trigeminal neuralgia), but do not identify as disabled.

I never stopped masking or consistently testing since at home tests became available.

I left my 30-year career and found lower infection spread work that allows me to wear a respirator.

I have lost most of my non-disabled friends because of my strict practices. My current social circle is very small and we operate with radical transparency about our activities. We almost always mask together unless outside, distanced and molecular tested.

I work with the local mask bloc and cleaner air system lender.

I wear an n95 all day at work. I use a sip valve. If I take a lunch or water break, it is outside. Often I do not take a break.

It was not perfect. The drag performers are not required to mask...

99 Oh. Well, then … a brief look at the 'capabilities' of the vaunted 'N-95' All-Weather Super Protective Never-Fail' mask. Ready?
There are 2 things that determine the N-95's effectiveness: the pore size of the MASK vs the PARTICLE size of the Covid virion.

A bit o' the old 'Math': The COVID virion is THREE ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE SMALLER than the pore size of the N-95. That means it is 1,000 time SMALLER than the N-95's pores. It offers NO MORE 'PROTECTION' than toilet paper.

Addendum: Most people believe doctors wear masks to protect themselves from 'things' that patients might generate. No. They wear masks to protect the PATIENT from their own saliva and possibly products in their exhalations that could have a negative effect on the patient.

We now return to our regularly-scheduled programming …

yeah, that's a true thing. But I would also say that 90% of the leftwing women claiming to be "immunocompromised" also claim to have every other trendy online viral "ailment" like neurodivergence or, of course, "gender fluidity." Autimsm+ -- which I think is autism plus ADHD, and was invented a couple of years ago -- is a very popular fake self-diagnosis.

And also: While feeling sympathy for people who are immunocompromised, I don't want to live my life as if *I* am immunocompromised. I have my own health problems. I don't try to force society to live with the same problems in solidarity.

About the same time as Covid hit, she got sick -- but not with Covid -- a more serious disease (redacted fro privacy]. It was tough goingg for a while ther, but she amazingly recovered, 100%,a d now has been declared totally disease-free by her doctors and completely "cured."

Your math is off. You forgot to multiply by 100. It's 0.21%. You're also assuming the two properties are independent. Plenty of lesbians are fat, sedentary, have bad genetics, etc, so it's not a safe assumption those two traits (immunocompromised and lesbian) are independent.

147 In the 1980s, there were several hundred lesbian bars in the US. There are now just a couple of dozen, since normal lesbians don't want to hang out socially with men wearing dresses, and there is no way to exclude the men wearing dresses.

Lesbians in Portland organize dances in warehouses using closed Facebook groups to keep the men wearing dresses from finding out about them.

Not surprising that the remaining patrons of lesbian bars are nuts.

I never heard it before. I assumed it was some kind of reference to Dikes on Bikes, which was (is?) a dike bike gang I have seen at some odd biker gatherings in PA.

BTW, "Critical Tits" is (was?) the topless bicycle parade in Burning Man each year. Not too bad back 20 years ago. Lots of chaff though.

...request that I...
-- Wear a K-95 mask for an entire week prior to visiting them
-- Wear a mask from the moment I leave the house for travel to the moment I show up at their door. [con't]-- bring extras changes of clothing & extra pairs of shoes BECAUSE THEY DON'T ALLOW "OUTSIDE CLOTHES" in the house.
-- etc.

Sure enough, when I showed up at their door, they made me CHANGE CLOTHES in the entryway and place my "outside clothes" in a "quarantine bag." Everyone masked, all the time.

Fun fun fun for everyone.

As the days passed, I can to understand that the friend herself didn't like masking and only agreed to it because he insisted. His explanation His precious wife is "immunocompromised" and thus he is doing all this to protect her.

When I later asked my friend in private about this topic and her illness, she admitted that she ISN'T immuncompromised, that she is 100% cured, and that the doctor told her she that is completely healty and has no need for a mask.

But the husband rejects the doctor's assurances, and demands masks for everyone within a 100' radius of his wife.

She admitted to me that they have lost most of their friends & famil yover this.

I had opportunities to meet quite a few lezzes in the '60s and '70s when I played music in the French Quarter. Only TWO of them were close to what I'd call attractive, but ONE of 'em was smackdown gorgeous. I wanted to hit on her SO bad - but she had a really nasty-ass 'lover/roommate' she was deathly afraid of. I found out one nite when she asked if I could take her somewhere when the club closed 'cos she didn't want to go home - she was that afraid of her 'lover/roomie'. We got in my car, drove to Lake Pontchartrain's lakefront, and I took the front seat while she slept in back. I reallyreallyreally wanted to climb in back, but … anyhow: I drove her back to the Quarter in the morning and then drove myself home … them was the days.

181 You know, at the end of the day this is a solid example of freedom. I support privately owned businesses setting their own rules without government intervention. If a bar wants to require masks, it's no different from a restaurant requiring a sport coat or a tie. It's their private restaurant...it's their dress code and rules as long as the practice doesn't violate the law (race, religion and such).

That being said...this particular bar catered to the weenies long enough, and likely realized that they were losing revenue from those who have just a smidge of sanity left in their point little heads, so they made a business move that a few whiners are pissed about. And, those whiners live their lives ALWAYS getting their way, because no one ever taught them otherwise. This is an education experience.

216 Wow! I just went back and read the comments Ace excerpted from the bar's social media.

No wonder the bar is going broke.

Does anybody believe that such entitled, self-aggrandizing twats would actually leave a tip for excellent service?

The three bar owners should switch to catering to wealthy frat boys. Their bar would sell 10x the booze and a staff of cute lesbians would earn 100x the tips.

And they could just ignore the even LOUDER bitching from the spurned harpies in their social media comments.

242 Doc Marie’s, billed as Portland’s first dedicated lesbian bar in more than a decade, opened July 1, 2022, on SE Grand Avenue and shut the next day.

The space was packed far beyond what the inexperienced owners and staff had planned for. A known building leak dripped dirty water onto patrons and food. There was a physical fight in which one customer struck another and then made racist remarks; managers later said co-owner Olga Bichko did not handle the incident adequately. Payroll problems left some workers underpaid or unpaid. The bar and kitchen managers both quit immediately afterward, which forced the closure.

An anonymous group calling itself the Marie Equi Workers Collective then posted on Instagram that staff had been “misled about the space being safe and welcoming.” They accused the owners of unprofessional and unsafe behavior and of enabling a racist aggressor. The group demanded that Bichko hand the business over to the departing managers so it could become a worker-owned cooperative. Bichko disputed the characterizations, said the managers had been in over their heads, and declined to engage with the anonymous demands.

Leftist are trying to fix you (as unit of "society"). So of course you are necessarily involved.

And if you don't reform, you should, in their theory, be removed from the solution.

This is why Nazism is simply an extreme case of social engineering: Jews, the theory goes, stood in the way of a gelling German state that could really make headway. "Jewish newspapers" were always critical of German government and German people. Jews also held a good part of the wealth of the German nation.

Jews were in the way.

This is simple government-as-social-transformation behavior. It's just vituperatively aimed at a genetic variety.

Nazism is special by the lengths to which they pursued a genocidal "reform". But it falls into the general category of government-as-social-transformation. A key note of "fascism".

People are in the way--useless eaters, like the infirm, disabled and elderly, who cannot contribute to the societal value of work, can be removed.

Currently, if you're not on board with UK progress, the UK removes you to prison--at least for the time being.

I went to an appointment at the VA during the height of covid. They made you stop at the door and wait until they could take your temperature. If it was above normal they would not let you in. You had to wear a mask at all times even if you have asthma like I do.

When I finally got to actually see a nurse she asked me about 35 questions related to if I have had or do have covid. While I was answering those questions my mask kept slipping off of my mouth because it got caught on my beard. She started yelling at me about not wearing a mask properly. I yelled back quit fvcking asking me questions then and my mask won't slip off my fvcking face.

The appointment went downhill from there.

281 Viruses are now often tracked through waste water surveillance.

CDC's waste water monitoring program - Wastewater monitoring helps us understand the risk of influenza A (one subtype of influenza viruses that cause flu illness), SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19), and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) at a community level.

I didn't know that wastewater surveillance does not strictly require a public water or modern municipal sewer system to work. Surveillance tracks pathogens that infected individuals shed into any drainage or sanitation network, public or private, as long as a representative sample of the collective waste can be gathered and tested.
