Chick-fil-A Now Training White Employees To Say 'My Privilege'
Twitter ^ | 5/31/23 | Babylon Bee

Posted on 05/31/2023 2:30:12 PM PDT by Its All Over Except ...

ATLANTA — As his first act, Chick-fil-A's new VP of Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Erick McReynolds has revised company vocab guidelines, requiring white employees to move away from simple phrases like "my pleasure" and instead use preferred equitable language such as, "my privilege."

VP McReynolds said of the change, "Chick-fil-A restaurants have long been recognized as a place where people know they will be treated well. So in the interest of fixing something that isn't broken, we now require our privileged employees to express how they use their privilege to be allies to minorities by serving them great-tasting chicken sandwiches."

"We are committed to ensuring mutual respect," he continued. "We will do this by humiliating white people as often as possible."

Sources say white employees will also be required to kneel respectfully and raise their fists in the air whenever a black person enters the store. They will also be required to punch themselves in the face when asked.

McReynolds is reportedly surprised by the drama kicked up in the wake of his announcement. "I've been the Executive Director of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion since 2020. I'm a VP now, but we've always been headed in this direction."

"Check your privilege. Jeez."

At publishing time, Chick-fil-A had also hired a graphic designer to create a cool new pride logo for the company.

Haven’t been to Chick-Fil-A in at least five years now. No reason to go back with this b.s. going on.

Chick-fil-A, the chicken sandwich chain long beloved by conservatives for its longstanding opposition to same-sex marriage, is sparking boycott calls after announcing that it has hired an executive in charge of diversity, equity, and inclusion.

if only white employees have to say that, then it’s discrimination.

Time for them to get the Bud treatment

The problem is that you used to be able to know before seeing it. Now you’re inclined to believe it by default and then you’re relieved when you see it is the Bee...only sometimes to realize it isn’t either!!

Bulls and lambs had better watch their backs.

"We will do this by humiliating white people as often as possible."

That will drive the customers to the chain. [/s]

Too bad there isn't one local for me to boycott.

[The VP of the chain is endorsing this? Unbelievable.]

Yeah, I got stung -- by the babylon bee. LOL

They are so close to current events that it is scary.

This IS a Babylon Bee piece. Here's the BB link:

https://babylonbee.com/news/chick-fil-a-trains-white-employees-to-say-my-privilege.

Too bad the thread link goes to Twitter.

From the piece:

"We are committed to ensuring mutual respect," he continued. "We will do this by humiliating white people as often as possible."

Sources say white employees will also be required to kneel respectfully and raise their fists in the air whenever a black person enters the store. They will also be required to punch themselves in the face when asked.

That's definitely the Bee.
