Papa Johns to white supremacists: Don’t buy our pizza
New York Post ^ | November 6, 2017 | Christian Gollayan

Posted on 11/06/2017 7:31:42 PM PST by sparklite2

The alt-right started singing the pie chain’s praises after CEO John Schnatter made a controversial statement last week during a conference call with ESPN. In it, he blamed the NFL’s handling of players’ protests of police brutality and racism for the chain’s recent dip in pizza sales.

Writers at neo-Nazi website the Daily Stormer quickly sided with Papa John’s, declaring it the official pizza of the alt-right, reports Newsweek.

Soon afterward, people on Twitter created memes about the pizza chain’s affiliation with Nazis.

I see. What does Papa John’s say to Black Supremacists, BLM, and AntiFa?

Papa John’s may have just lost a big bunch of customers, not because of “white supremacy” but because of their furtherance of toxic identity politics which nobody needs especially when having some fun and buying a pizza.

See ya Papa John’s and Rots a Ruck.

Could Newsweak be taken to court for spreading the perception that the chain WAS affiliated with Nazis?

Did Newsweak ever report Communist Party USA’s endorsement of Hillary Clinton? Did they point out that CPUSA ran no other candidate in 2016, Hillary was their pick and they said that voting for Hillary was the only way to stop Trump?

In today’s Leftist media world, condemned “white supremacy” means a white guy, any white guy, but especially a successful white guy. I’m not a “white supremacist” but after reading that, I would think twice about going to Papa John’s.

Papa John’s just blew it big time IMO.

Our reply to Papa John’s “Don’t buy our pizza” is, don’t worry, we won’t.

That’s the way I hear it too. Never buy the pizza anyway, but now really not going to buy it!

My family has been boycotting Papa John’s because of their NFL sponsorship. Maybe we’ll extend the boycott for eternity because of their newly found virtue signaling. Let them serve Antifa goons.

Only six. Half the White Supremacists are FBI agents.

I wish people would pray to God over these little clashes and not get involved in spur of the moment boycotts and anti-boycotts, if the item might otherwise be chosen. That tends to exacerbate the problems and distract from the spiritual realm to the material realm.

Where you spend money (for things which “perish when used”) matters far less than where you spend your prayers. Enjoy the pizza and give thanks to God for it, and pray that the people who made it be blessed... yes, blessed... bless your enemies (which, moving them towards God, will eventually make them your friends).

White supremacists is fake news. Such an insignificant number. Look at Antifa, BLM, Southern Poverty Law Center, New Black Panthers, Nation of Islam, and numerous other anti-white groups fomenting racism. Therein lies the real racism!

“I buy Dominos or just make my own pizza”

I can’t seem to get the crust right. I spent time in the NE, so I know it when I see it, but mine is just NQR.

Yes, I agree. There’s virtually no “white supremacists” out there but that fact that they implied that there is makes me not want to go there. Identity politics and virtue signaling is toxic to our country and our culture.

“....Our reply to Papa John’s “Don’t buy our pizza” is, don’t worry, we won’t....”
Absolutely. We regular, old, working-type, middle-class white Americans will definitely not be buying your pizza. We also cheer on anybody else to put the a big old hurt on your little beotch, Leah Pritchett in NHRA’s Top Fuel too. Hopefully, Don Schumacher has enough brains, and balls, to dump your sorry racist azzes off the sides of one of his race cars.
