Is Chick-fil-A going woke?
That’s the reaction on social media now that the popular restaurant has reports on its web site that Erick McReynolds is the VP of diversity, equity and inclusion.
“Chick-fil-A restaurants have long been recognized as a place where people know they will be treated well. Modeling care for others starts in the restaurant, and we are committed to ensuring mutual respect, understanding and dignity everywhere we do business,” McReynolds is quoted as saying on the site.
“These tenets are good business practice and crucial to fulfilling our Corporate Purpose.”
The establishment makes it known the corporate purpose is “to glorify God by being a faithful steward of all that is entrusted to us. To have a positive influence on all who come into contact with Chick-fil-A.”
The site stresses, “one of our core values at Chick-fil-A, Inc. is that we are better together. When we combine our unique backgrounds and experiences with a culture of belonging, we can discover new ways to strengthen the quality of care we deliver: to customers, to the communities we serve and to the world. We understand that getting Better at Together means we learn better, care better, grow better and serve better.”
The message was met with some resistance on social media.
Many are debating the idea that Chick-fil-A’s Christian values may or may not support diversity, equity and inclusion
Pretty soon, people will actually be sitting down with their family to a home cooked meal.
Are they trying to protect themselves against future lawsuits or do they have an activist among their executive ranks ? Need to find out.
That’s the best and healthiest way to do it.
Imagine the horror
Hmmm. Nah, that would be sensible.
Jesus Chicken caved.
Every time I’m there they seem to have a pretty diverse crew
It’s all about that ESG score. The banks won’t lend to corporations whose ESG score isn’t high enough.
Blackrock/ESG scores.
there is a CFA and an IN N out 5 blocks from us. Guess where I go and which store I boycott the past 10 years?
The only way to beat Black Rock, Main Street and Van Guard is to boycott. Unfortunately, that may mean going hungry.
Remember when they began supporting the Southern Poverty Law Center and stopped supporting the Salvation Army?
Well expect your visit to chick fil a to be just as lousy as a trip to mcd’s in a few years…
Pursuit of anything except excellence is simply a path to mediocrity
Chick-Fil-A witnessed their major surge in sales thanks to the the general public’s counter protest to the LGBTQ-x community’s demands for a boycott. Hard to imagine the corporate heads would seek to marginalize the folks responsible for their success—how soon they forget.
Or better yet, a hen supervisor.
Pursuit of excellence will creat diversity.
Pursuit of diversity simply for diversities sake will produce mediocrity at best.
No waiting on fake RINO promises to 'do something about' woke agendas being forced on us, especially in the schools.
And I LOVE how the wokesters are raging mad that we would DARE boycott their agenda.
It appears that Chic-Filet has completely disregarded their faithful conservative customers who defended them against Snowflake onslaughts time after time. Maybe they need reminding with a boycott...
There are no Chick-fil-A’s around here. The first Popeye’s opened up last fall, and it’s 30 minutes away. Needless to say, I’m not driving 30 minutes just for chicken.
Yeah, what kind of clueless clowns did not notice this? For years they have sponsored drag shows for kiddies. YEARS!
Anyone still buying their crappola might as well be contributing to Epstein’s estate.
