Step one: Start a political party

Step two: Get in power

Step three: Make refusing credit transactions to patrons on grounds of "morality" illegal.

Almost impossible in a FPTP voting system

Surely it is possible and only requires a majority to support you.

You can take over an established party, eg: alt-right and the mainstream conservative right.

What exactly is the difference between enforcing morality with law and enforcing no morality with law? Morality is an incredibly subjective thing between differing cultures, I don't think it has a place in the justice/civil law systems.

You don't have to write the word "morality" in the law itself. Just make it so they can't deny service to anyone ever.
