Chick-fil-A Hires VP of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion; Twitter Says it Is Going ‘Woke’

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

> It’s all about that ESG score. The banks won’t lend to corporations whose ESG score isn’t high enough.

Bingo !!

And institutional investors will dump stocks with a low ESG score.

CEO's are now solely accountable to Investment Banks, Hedge Funds, and large brokerages, NOT SHAREHOLDERS.

Chick fil A is a private family owned company.

They did not need to do this.

But they did.

I frequently buy from Chic FilA.

I pray they repent.

Even though they are a private company anyone they do business with gets their ESG score dinged.

Just wait until your local church or synagogue can’t find a bank, can’t get a new building built, etc. Unless they follow ESG guidance.

I abandoned them years ago for some reason I can’t even remember.

Trash food. Nothing remotely nourishing or healthy about any single piece of garbage they sell.

You’d be much better off pulling the lid on a can of sardines and eating them on saltines with a splash of French’s yellow mustard.

Ugh, I forgot they are private, but I guess they have to tow the ESG line anyway.

No they don’t. They just did. They actually believe that their customers are on board. Maybe they are. I’m not.

"Demolition Man" has Taco Bell winning the franchise wars (Pizza Hut in Europe).

"Idiocracy" has Carl's Jr as the last man standing.
