This couple had ordered a takeout pizza from a Cleveland area Little Caesar's. When they got home, they discovered the pepperoni had been arranged into the shape of a swastika.
The couple is white, and there doesn't seem to be any other particular reason they might have been specifically targeted. According to the pizza shop manager, the two employees who made the pizza did so as some kind of inside joke and that particular pizza was never meant to be served to any customers. Nevertheless, the employees were both fired.
I saw this story when it was first reported early yesterday. Predictably, the story was met with claims by racist-apologists that the couple had "faked"/created the swastika pizza themselves, citing "evidence" such as the fact that the pizza was not cut. Those early reports did not include the information that the pizza shop employees who were fired had admitted to making it.

“I was like they didn’t cut our pizza, but then I stepped back for a second and I saw the symbol. And I looked at him and I was like ‘Hold on, did you have to order fresh pizza or something?'” Misty Laska said. The Laskas did not eat the pizza, instead they saved it for proof. They immediately called the shop, which had closed just minutes earlier. They received a call from the local owner and the Little Caesars corporate office on Sunday. |
