Yes you do, that's why you're posting here. As you note, it is completely of a piece with social media bans. It is obviously newsworthy because it now extends that sort of "ideological ban" to a physical space.

MSG is not a members only club, there are laws about venues which are generally open to the public, and we also have civil court for contracts like buying tickets to concerts.
We will see what a jury of our peers will say. But I don't think progressive snark or bad jokes about lawyers will be in the court arguments.
