At one point in the US, slavery was legal. But was it morally right?The bottom line is many states do not include political affiliation in their discrimination clause, and the issue of creating a separate "Taiwanese" identity is simply that, a political agenda. Good luck with such a litigation in the US. Last time I've checked, the Supreme court even rejected case of LGBT against restaurant owner that refused them service via discrimination clause.
Your use of the LGBT case is inapplicable because the Taiwanese employee, as far as we know, demanded no treatment from her employer that had any effect because of her claiming to be Taiwanese. All she wanted was a job running tables. Her 'political agenda', laughable as you tried to put it, could not materially harm the restaurant in any way. Unless you are willing to stretch 'harm' to mean loss of some customers who maybe offended that they were served by a Taiwanese.
