To set the scene: we were in the front of a CVS, there were two employees in the store that I could see, a manager and a cashier. There was probably a pharmacist in the back but they aren't relevant to the story. While I was there the manager was helping me print stuff because the computers were acting up, so all that left was the cashier at the counter helping the other customer.
While I'm standing there waiting for the documents to print the customer becomes very irate and wants to speak with the manager, who asks him what's wrong seeing as all 4 of us have been standing there this whole time and nothing was out of the ordinary. He then gets super animated talking about how people were following him around the store/checking on him (seriously, there were no other employees in this store) because he is black and that is discrimination. He then said “I am a registered nurse, I don't have to deal with any of this low class stuff. Not in Joe Biden's America (literally word for word)” he then ranted about how racist this state is (it's not) and how racist the staff is at this CVS and how he is going to call corporate. Then he told the manager his cousin's name is Chris and then said “God Bless” and some other gibberish as he left the store.
After he left the three of us all collectively go wtf was that, and the manager asked the employee what he even did. Apparently after he rang him up he said “is there anything else I can help you with” and that's when the dude accused him of racism. The weird part? The cashier, himself, was black and like 16.
I then made a joke about how he's going to send corporate a tiktok of him dancing and they awkwardly chuckled while I laughed at my own joke. The end.

I had the exact same thing happen to me. I just went over to cleaning products aisle, grabbed a bottle of bleach and threw it in his face as I triumphantly shouted "this is MAGA country, BIPOC!"
He left without anymore sass about "Joe Biden's America" after that.
Everyone in the store clapped.
