Continuing with its extortion effort of businesses its business model expansion, “review” website Yelp – which in the past has been accused of making business owners pay to get negative reviews taken off the site – is now also getting into the business of social justice. The two just go so well together!
Yelp said in a blog post on Thursday that it now going to be appending a “Business Accused of Racist Behavior Alert” to any businesses page where they have been accused of racism.
“Yelp’s User Operations team already places alerts on business pages when we notice an unusual uptick in reviews that are based on what someone may have seen in the news or on social media, rather than on a first-hand experience with the business,” the blog says.
It continues: “Now, when a business gains public attention for reports of racist conduct, such as using racist language or symbols, Yelp will place a new Business Accused of Racist Behavior Alert on their Yelp page to inform users, along with a link to a news article where they can learn more about the incident.”
So at least they’ll be citing the news when they singlehandedly devastate someone’s business. Good thing the mainstream media always has the story right.
The site notes that 2020 has already seen a major uptick in these types of complaints: “So far in 2020, we’ve seen a 133% increase in the number of media-fueled incidences on Yelp compared to the same time last year. Between May 26 and September 30, we placed more than 450 alerts on business pages that were either accused of, or the target of, racist behavior related to the Black Lives Matter movement.”
We wonder if any of this increase in ‘complaints’ were black owned businesses that were ‘already looted’?
The bullshit never ends.
What are the odds that this isn’t insanely abused? https://t.co/lqgwxdKynt— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) October 9, 2020
Yelp also openly admitted that the new feature is being implemented to appease the Black Lives Matter movement: “The new Business Accused of Racist Behavior Alert is an extension of our Public Attention Alert that we introduced in response to a rise in social activism surrounding the Black Lives Matter movement.”
This news comes after the blog already “rolled out a number of initiatives to help users find and support Black-owned businesses” over the summer.
We think Donald Trump Jr. said it best Friday morning:
ADL is at it again
Best way to get back at this nonsense is to make a list of all these so-called social justice movements and the businesses that back them. Then make it public to remind everyone and let the people be the judge.
It’s an attack by the big corporations against local business disguised in social movement. Nike that uses Chinese slave labor will never be branded as racist, instead Joe and Jane who own a local furniture workship will have to pay extortion tax to Black Lives Matter and Anti Defamation League who initiated this open war against small businesses.
A civil war in USA is preferable right now.
“Corporations” that follow the agenda (of the USA government).
They all sing the same song of the USA government.

No dog meat today? Maybe try a rat or a bat.
I wasn’t aware that people actually checked Yelp reviews.
Its Ok anti-White racism is allowed in this world now.
The USA government is behind these “private” companies that sing the same song.
To look “democracy” the USA government pushes the companies to do its job in the country (or likely make threats to them, clearly the USA government’s way).
