CPAC Blasts Hyatt: They’re Validating ‘Demonstrably False and Malicious Claims’

Hannah Bleau 1 Mar 2021

Tension between the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) and Hyatt hotels is heating up following the conclusion of the conservative conference in Orlando, Florida.

After the hotel released critical statements, it prompted a response from the American Conservative Union (ACU), which accused the hotel of appearing to validate “demonstrably false and malicious claims” advanced by radical leftists devoted to cancel culture.

Several prominent leftists took to social media over the weekend to spread a conspiracy theory, claiming that the main stage looked like a Nazi symbol.”

“This is the stage at CPAC. THEY’RE NOT EVEN TRYING TO HIDE IT ANYMORE,” actress turned left-wing activist Alyssa Milano wrote in an Instagram post, providing a side-by-side picture. “@hyatt, this is what’s happening in your building. @tedcruz, you stood on this stage.”:

Matt Schlapp, chairman of the ACU and lead organizer of CPAC, quickly rejected the leftist claims as “outrageous and slanderous.” Additionally, a Hyatt spokesperson initially defended the hotel’s decision to host the conference. However, Hyatt struck a demonstratively different tone on the final day of the conference, releasing two statements explaining it was “extremely disappointed by the disrespect many individuals involved in the event showed to our colleagues.”

“We are tremendously grateful to our colleagues for their resilience and the care they demonstrated keeping people safe in circumstances that became increasingly difficult as the event evolved,” Hyatt said in a February 28 newsroom release, addressing the concerns over the design of the stage as well and admitting that they did not initially view it as an issue:

    When we learned that CPAC 2021 stage design had been compared to a symbol of hate, we promptly raised this concern with meeting organizers who strongly denied any connection to such symbols. Had we initially recognized the potential connections to hate symbolism, we would have proactively addressed it prior to commencement of the event. Unfortunately, this became clear to us only after the event kicked off. With CPAC’s denial of any intentional connection to hate symbols and our concerns over the safety of guests and colleagues in what could have been a disruptive situation, we allowed the event to continue. We understand and respect the opinions of those who might disagree with that decision.

    Our own values support a culture that is characterized by empathy, respect and diversity of opinions and backgrounds, and we strive to bring this to light through what we do and how we engage with those in our care. We do not always agree with or share the same values as groups hosting meetings and events at our hotels – and while we may not always get it right, we strive to strike the right balance among our customers’ rights to express themselves in their meetings and events, inclusivity and our role in providing meeting facilities.

Oh, btw at the very end of this article is

Hyatt Hotels Corporation is owned by the Pritzker family. J.B. Pritzker is the Democrat governor of Illinois.

Actually, Obama's Invesco Stadium set was the one that looked like something from Triumph of the Will or Nuremberg Rallies of nearly 90 years ago. This bears no resemblance..

The Rodents like to speak in slogans.  Orwell is right, of course, and the Rodents want to use slogans because slogans short circuit the brain and thought stops.   If there is no thought, there can be no thought crime.

So, to help the Rodents out...

Cancel Culture is Culture Cancer.

That was actually patterned after the temple to Zeus in Pergamum... The one where the Revelation says 'Satan has his seat'... Which has rested in Germany since Hitler brought it there, lock, stock, and barrel.

Hyatt, maybe you people are REAL slow on the uptake.  Go WOKE, GO BROKE.

This is the "symbol" they are claiming the CPAC coppied (inverted) of the 7th SS Mountain division (in the Balkans). They were nasty bastards, and it took a bit of research to find out what they were even talking about.

It just looked like a stage layout to me.
In order for a 'subliminal' message to be effective, people have to know what they are seeing.
This isn't like flashing "buy popcorn" every 60 frames.

Well that ain't quite right @Smokin Joe ... You should pick ANY superbowl and study the occult references in the half time show. Most everyone is ignorant of what they are seeing there too - But there it is. Blatantly there. And the crowds worship it, all unbeknownst.

Or as I am wont to suggest so often, study the Apotheosis of George Washington... See the murals bound by 70 pentagrams in the ceiling of the Rotunda, and you will wonder no more what is being attempted in our government officials lying in state right there.

There is power in what they do - Else why could the pharaoh's priests replicate nearly every sign of power Moses gave? And in that power, a reason for its use. And it is literally everywhere in business, school, and government.

Even given that, an inverted symbol (like the inverted cross) is more often than not a refutation of what the symbol stands for. From the front of the stage, the collar tab symbol of the Prinz Eugen Division was inverted, and thus renounced. I doubt that the folks at CPAC were aware of the similarity.

There are only so many ways to design a stage layout to perform the assigned tasks.

For that shape to have hidden meaning they'd have to first show a real connection between the stage designers and national socialism.

At least, if their intended audience resembled rational people and not drooling mindless beasts.

I am so absolutely, fracking tired of this shit.

[Smokin Joe]

I am so absolutely, fracking tired of this shit.

Yep. Any squiggle or design someone nefarious might have used in the past is now a damning proof of Conservative association with that person or group, regardless.

The process being undertaken here is known as "Demonization", the removal of all but evil from the often very human and humane characteristics of your opponent in the eyes of the populace. It is a precursor to everything from wars to pogroms to genocide.

Oh I am all but certain the Republicans were ignorant of it. I would point more to the folks that designed  and choreographed the event FOR them.

Just like finding a talisman under a pew at church - It ain't FROM the church. It is pointed AT the church. And whether the church is ignorant or not has nothing to do with it.

It certainly is odd to see businesses thumbing their noses at and insulting those willing to spend money with them - from Hyatt to Nike to Target to Coca-Cola - because of the potential customer's political beliefs. I didn't study business in college, but am pretty sure it's not a good idea.

Food, beverages, temporary shelter, are probably not good businesses to politicize.

But then 'tato chips and a six pack of coca cola are a standard 7-course welfare meal...

Someone has their marketing tunnel vision engaged when they risk offending over 60%  of the population (Non-hispanic whites)..

Design Firm: Actually, We Designed CPAC’s “Nazi Symbol” Stage, Not The ACU

https://hotair.com/archives/allahpundit/2021/03/03/design-firm-actually-designed-cpacs-nazi-symbol-stage-not-acu/

For cripes sake. The “Nazi symbol” freakout raged for two full days online and elicited no fewer than three increasingly panicky press releases from Hyatt Hotels distancing itself from CPAC, the last of which tried to appease paranoid liberals by noting that some people involved in the event had been rude to Hyatt staff. Message: We don’t like them any more than you do.

“Had we initially recognized the potential connections to hate symbolism, we would have proactively addressed it prior to commencement of the event,” Hyatt said a few days ago, adding, “We do not always agree with or share the same values as groups hosting meetings and events at our hotels.” Will the company be issuing a new release today absolving the American Conservative Union from blame for the controversy now that we know it had nothing to do with the stage design?

Not that I think Hyatt will be doing any apologizing. Being Prog and woke means never saying, "I was wrong."
