>> Chick-fil-A had already endured years of LGBT abuse, surviving movements to ban them from airports, rest stops, and college campuses.

#ing thugs

This is the crap our beloved federal agencies should be investigating and prosecuting

Yup, another company that I will list as “I used to go there.” Too much out there to spend bucks on ANY company that supports the left.

Every company is woke, yes that means the ones you think are not woke.

Count me as one they have fooled, but no longer.

Chick-fil-A went woke after that protest a few years ago where liberals would clog up their drive-through asking only for a cup of water, which Chick-fil-A gives away for free, in protest of Chick-fil-A's anti-LGBT stance.

Except the ones you think are woke that aren’t.

Maybe so, but that is not going to help them now as they most assuredly face a boycott from their Christian and Conservative patrons.

They might not yet realize that restaurant food is non-essential. You can live your entire life without ever eating at a restaurant again and you’ll be perfectly fine.

that’s what I always wonder, when people call for boycotts, or proclaim they won’t shop here or there.

Is there any company in any business, which has not gone liberal? Doesn’t just about every major company, proclaim they celebrate diversity, and do not discriminate against the panoply of “LGBT” and other diverse individuals?

That is true. Chick-fil-A was just discreet about it after they were supported by customers in the original flap about “gay marriage.” Corporate headquarters went on with its wokeness, which actually used to be a little tamer, and coasted along on the fact that Christians perceived Chick Fil A as being supportive.

But when push comes to shove, it’s clearly not, and somehow it has now decided that it has more to gain by openly supporting the left than by even appearing to support Christians.

Possibly there are government contracts in play (do they have outlets on military bases, for example), which means that they want to toe the government line. They obviously think that Christians or even secular conservatives don’t have enough clout or buying power to be important to them.

I live in Texas, people here are good-hearted but incredibly naive. They tend to wear their “rhino-goggles” a lot. Lining up for chick-fila seems to be christian virtue-signaling, at least in part.
It’s amazing how fast people forget their 180 on gay marriage, their cancelling of christian scholarships and now white-shaming. Easy boycott for me, I must be the only one who thinks their chicken is soggy.

i’ll still go there sometimes. It’s good chicken and every company is woke now. Might as well never plan on leaving the house again.

Never went to one. Never will. There are none around me. The closest is 45 minutes to an hour away. I’d never drive that far just to have a meal.

I like Chick-fil-A food, but it’s a bit overpriced. There’s less incentive for me to go since they are going woke.

I’m not ready to totally boycott, but I’m less likely to go knowing these things.

Yup.. They turned the corner a decade ago. And no one wanted to see.

“$230,000 to Covenant House.” Big mistake. Cov. House is a front for unethical people. Every company that supports vice and crime should downsize, regroup, and start fresh with support for virtue and law.
