Perkins nails it with this:

Chick-fil-A didn't just switch their giving practices, they broadcasted it. They made a conscious choice to draw attention to this very public divorce from two Bible-believing charities. And then, in a calculated move, announced their support was going to an organization that, on its website, openly and proudly supports everything about the LGBT community.

Sorry to say, but Salvation Army counts as one of those.

I posted thread about that in August.

CLV = Customer Lifetime Value:

When left wing corporate board member idiots chase away fans/customers/buyers to promote Social Justice Warfare/Welfare WOKE BS, often those customers will stay away for their lifetime. CLV = Customer Lifetime Value:

P&G, Nike, pro football and now Chick-fil-A didn’t just switch their Woke actions, they broadcasted it. Then they rubbed our noses with their stances.

Chick-fil-A made a conscious choice to draw attention to this very public divorce from two Bible-believing charities. And then, in a calculated move, announced their support was going to an organization that, on its website, openly and proudly supports everything about the LGBT community.

How many of those deplorable customers will now stay away for their life time. CLV = Customer Lifetime Value:

Chick-fil-A_ have ended their relationships with millions of Deplorables customers with their Justice Warfare BS marketing.

These idiots depending on the millennials to bail them out, may be even more stupid than pushing SJW BS.

CLV aka Customer Lifetime Value:

The model for customer cash flows treats the firm’s customer relationships as something of a leaky bucket. Each period, a fraction (1 less the retention rate) of the firm’s customers leave and are lost for good.[1]

The CLV model has only three parameters: (1) constant margin (contribution after deducting variable costs including retention spending) per period, (2) constant retention probability per period, and (3) discount rate.

Furthermore, the model assumes that in the event that the customer is not retained, they are lost for good.

We are going to give the money we normally spent at CFA to the Salvation Army. If enough people do that, the Salvation Army will not miss the rather stingy $100K that CFA was giving them.

Yep. Put a $1000 check in the mail to The Salvation Army today and told CfA online what I did and no more them.

“Perkins nails it with this:”

I agree. This reminds me of the 2016 Republican Convention when Ted Cruz said something like “Vote your conscience in November”.

The NeverTrumpers here, in trying to hide their hatred of Trump, made the claim that “...of course Cruz was saying to vote for Trump, since any other vote would support Hillary”.

Well, nice try. If Cruz had FLAT-OUT said to vote for Trump, we wouldn’t have had to deal with a month of recounts and nearly losing the election. I personally know people who stayed home in 2016 because they thought (rightly or wrongly) that Cruz got screwed.

In fact, even the Russia crap would not have carried nearly as much weight if Trump had another 2 million or so votes, so the election wouldn’t have been considered even close.

So here we are with Chick-a-fill. The Leftists here claim that their generic statement of now supporting groups which support ‘their values’ is the same as telling the Left to go to hell regarding the Salvation Army...well, it doesn’t pass the smell test.

To put it another way: WE’RE NOT THAT DUMB.
