Can you please point out where the post judges people for using screens? I see "don't use screens here", which isn't a judgment of people who use screens, it's just a rule. Your statement, however, is very judgemental. Especially of a place you have never been and appear to have decided to never visit. For clarity, here's what I consider the harshest judgemental part you posted: "Can you imagine the conversations you'd find yourself in at this place, given this is how the "owner" sees the world?"

Finally, I'm pretty sure the original article is some sort of creative prose or story, given the rest of the cmart site. If so, then its appears to have illicited strong reactions, which may be a sort of success in itself.

yes, right here:

and don't tell me that's not judging, this is a no judgement space, just remain silent and reflect on what I'm pointing out, and maybe you'll have some new ideas.

(just wanted to make sure you can hear the air of superiority that the cafe has)
