As far as I know, they might spin a wheel. I don't know. But solving said problem by openly discriminating against people who don't happen to be a minority is as bad as the inverse.
the fuck your feelings crowd huh >

The "Fuck your feelings" crowd are, by far, the most emotional, easily enraged snowflakes you can imagine. Any issue they get pissed at is tiny compared to the stink they kick up about it. >

Free advertising.. >

I hope so. It's a good reminder that unlike the internet, most people (like this shop owner) literally don't care about 'wokeism'. And just associate the word, quite rightly, with waking up and having breakfast. >

They are so easily manipulated. >

But trans people are snowflakes >

“People are so sensitive! It’s just a word. We said it all the time growing up.”
Looks up to see the sign for a cafe containing a word that has no real meaning and immediately sets himself on fire. >

People are so on dimensional. >

Meanwhile Red State BBQ is alive and well in KY... >

Their sauce is made with real KY >

Conservatives now concerned that coffee will make you gay and less racist. >

You'd be surprised at how many mundane things that make you gay.  Like clipping your own hair nostrils. >

Your hairs have their own noses? >

And if you don’t clip your own, who the hell is going to do it for you? >


Carmen Quiroga called her cafe ‘Woke’ to signal to customers ‘Wake up and have a coffee’. 

Clickbait. If you care about this, no coffee for you. Seems like a great way to keep bigots out of your place. >

There is quite the spectrum between bigotry and what is considered as woke today though.
Today 'woke' is considered what happens when good and necessary ideas are taken too far, out of context and are merely an excuse to search for bad intentions in everything. Which was obviously not what the woke ideology was originally about.
Said all that, when a coffee bar calls itself 'Woke', I think you should find that clever regardless of your ideas. >

Please give us some examples of "when good and necessary ideas are taken too far". Being vague just makes us assume the worst of you. >

From my job: really good that my large, international employer focuses on diversity and everyone feeling like they have no obstacles because of gender, sexuality, colour,... However, targeting 40% women in technical/engineering positions by 2025 when it's currently 30% and only 20% of graduates in engineering are women, is letting your perfectly fine ideas of equality run over the reality of the situation.
Also from my job: I've been denied an internal training because 'we are looking for a more diverse group'. Aka, we already have a few white men so we will now deny 70% of our workforce in light of 'diversity and equality'.
Oh or better! A big city in Belgium has publicly stated that if multiple applicants for a job have the same qualifications, they will chose the one from a minority group. Again, everyone deserves a job, but you can't justify obvious discrimination because it's not against a minority. >

There needs to be some sort of tiebreaker in that case, what would you suggest?  What's an equitable solution in that case?
