Do you have a "they closed X but left Y open?" complaint in regard to COVID business closures?

It’s an oft-stated claim among the right that certain areas are morally bankrupt because they closed churches but left strip clubs open. Apparently this is true, even in the Bay Area (though the only strip club I knew of around here seems to have closed for good). The stated reason is one of ease of distancing, but the issue is one of optics. It doesn’t look good to close churches but leave strip clubs open to many. Are there similar situations you’ve come across? Maybe a place you know where there’s little close contact is closed but another place with big crowds is left open? Maybe something that doesn’t seem “essential” but is open for business nonetheless?
