What was the problem with the comment? I do not see it.
If you are looking to be offended, you will be successful 100% of the time.
My goodness, such hair-triggered offense these days. Looks like the term community has gone down the same rabbit hole as the word gay. Wistfully recalling when gay simply had a happy meaning...
This triggered Twitter followers to read “community” and think “black community” — who taught them that association?
The company has been using “community” in various posts when items are coming to local area menus. Chick-fil-a apologizing for “poor choice of words” for using the word “community” is ridiculous CYA.
Some people spend their entire waking hours looking for things to complain about. They want to complain and put you on the defensive, which (they think) will instantly give them that prized Victim Status, to whom ‘the debt’ can never be fully repaid. This can be overcome by refusing to accept much of any guilt. You don’t always have to play their game.
Twitter posts are not “backlash”. Reduced sales are.
Apologizing never helps. It only makes the freaks redouble their crazy demands.
[[Chick-fil-A faces backlash]]
Who cares!- they weren’t being racist and no amount of minority screaming and childish foot-stomping will change that fact! Ignore the criticism!
the spicy nuggets revolution
into the streets, comrades
Community = local area.
The left’s goal is to keep conservatives on defense all the time. Thus they will make up false claims so conservatives spin their wheels defending themselves. It’s quite obvious what they are doing.
What? This is so stupid! They can deem anything racist especially if they want to destroy you. Seriously, who’s buying into this crap anymore?
And every school cafeteria has Fried Chicken, Grits, Black Eyed Peas, even . . wait for it . . . Watermelon for Black History month.
And Corn Beeef and Cabbage for St Patricks day
and Chocolate bunnies for Easter

Even Hillary tells every black interviewer that she has hot sauce in her purse.
take a break from your outrage folks.
It must be exhausting constantly scanning the media for something to take offense to.
woke is a weapon
they bash anyone they dont like
does not matter what was actually said
Communists are easily offended by capitalism.
it’s not that hard...
“Your community will be the first to know if spicy items are added to the permanent menu, Don!” Chick-fil-A’s account responded.
Don’t cry for Chik-fil-A. The one-time conservative company is living off past glory. It has gone woke.
Nobody associated with the company has talked about Christianity or traditional marriage in recent years. A former Obama official was brought in to oversee the charity operation of Chik-fil-A and the cowardly company stopped giving to the “bigoted” Fellowship for Christian Athletes and Salvation Army.
For the next 8 months I have to go to another community to get my Chic Fil-A fix. Ours was torn down for remodeling.
Chick-fil-A is the only fast food I find palatable. Forced by hunger to try it in some airport on the way to Houston. Not bad at all.
HOWEVER, I’m deeply offended that one is opening a block away. The traffic will be a nightmare.
I should sue them too.
"Community" can be a geographical thing or a societal thing. In the past, when good manners were much more common, the proper response would have been,
"My community? Could you expand or elucidate on that use of the word? Thanks so much."
Now? Automatic offense and cries of
