The woke nutjobs in uber-liberal NYC won’t be satisfied until they turn the city into a deserted dystopian wasteland.

“culture vultures dressed in normcore” = white owners running a Asian fusion place which the writer of the scree believes is a form of cultural theft while running the restaurant as if it was any other Asian themed restaurant. The horrors.

“dated power dynamics” =
Again white owners with capital hire workers and have the audacity to be their bosses who you know order them to do things on the clock.

“internalized misogyny.” = the most evil sin of all a white man who opened, funded and runs the business issues orders as a boss to POC or women or both.

Ruffly translated from woketrash to American. The British English version would be a triffle more colourful.

Perhaps if the name of the place was changed to “Manifest Destiny” the complainers would be happier?

Per Wikipedia: Normcore is a unisex fashion trend characterized by normal-looking clothing. Normcore fashion includes jeans, t-shirts, sweats, button-downs, and sneakers. Clothing is considered to be normcore when it is attractive and comfortable and is viewed as "normal" by the majority of people.

Well, who wouldn't be outraged by that?? /s

The restaurant owner colonized a rooftop bar and is accused of internalized misogyny by professional misandrists.

There is no translation. It is just random meaningless words. Pol pot killed the wrong people. I found the people of Cambodia very industrious and friendly, and they hated the french so we got along just fine. They were very proud of the rebuilding of their education system, and having a high school level education is a very proud achievement for them. It pains me to see them devolving again

Me too. I just read the NY Post article and thought, “I don’t know what half of those insults mean!” Why couldn’t she just call them Poo-Poo Heads?
