A West Hollywood, California gay bar is under fire after a TikToker posted a video claiming the establishment kicked out a couple of patrons because a bartender was rejected by one of them.

TikToker @benjispears told all in a video about his experience at Micky's West Hollywood where he and his friend had the bouncer called on them because his friend refused to sleep with the bartender.

Spears' video set off a wave of backlash against Micky's West Hollywood.

On Yelp!, the establishment has plummeted to 2.5 stars and has received a deluge of negative attention.

"I'm so shocked at what happened," wrote one reviewer.

"The disgusting display of sexual harassment has me sick to my stomach. Consent is a human right. And for anyone to feel as if they can't deny someone .... In fear they'll get removed from an establishment. Is sad."

Spears argued with other employees of the bar and got his drink refunded in the video.

"I would be completely embarrassed if I was running this establishment!!!" wrote one review.

"Do not waste your time or your money."

Spears says he and his friend were removed for "endangering others" with no further qualifiers offered.

"My brand is comedy, laughter, my goal is to make you guys laugh," Spears, himself a bartender in Los Angeles, added.

"But most importantly, I use my brand to help educate, and to focus on keeping bar patrons safe. I make videos to teach everyone to keep themselves safe… and that's why I was so passionate and upset last night."

Fox News Host Apologizes After His Suggestion That Homeless People Be Euthanized Sparks Outrage

Fox and Friends host Brian Kilmeade was criticized for suggesting that homeless people with mental health issues get "involuntary lethal injection" after the murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on a train in North Carolina—and was swiftly condemned for an insincere apology several days after the fact as many are calling for Fox News to terminate his contract.

Zarutska was stabbed to death at the East/West Boulevard station on the Lynx Blue Line in Charlotte last month; her killer, a homeless man with a history of mental health issues, has since been charged with first-degree murder.

Nancy Mace Just Tried To Claim She's Never 'Dehumanized' Her Colleagues—And The Internet Brought The Receipts

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was called out for hypocrisy after she claimed on CNN that Democrats in Congress have been "dehumanizing" Republicans, a move she would "never" do—despite her record of doing just that.

Speaking to anchor Katie Bolduan while the search for the suspect who killed far-right activist Charlie Kirk was ongoing, Mace objected to Bolduan's observation that she was using "us v. them" language, only saying that things are "very one-sided right now." She also suggested that the situation is so bad for her that she's actually afraid of "just walking out in public."
