Swiss Air Lines has cut ties with chocolate manufacturer Läderach following left-wing protests of the owner’s membership in a pro-life, pro-family Christian group.

Despite Swiss Air’s ten-year affiliation with Läderach, the airline dropped the chocolatier after protests and extensive vandalism by left-wing activists, homosexuals, and young socialists, according to a report by LifeSite News.

Jürg Läderach, who owns the high-end chocolate company, is also the president of “Christianity for Today” (CFT), a Swiss evangelical organization

Last fall, activists attacked a Läderach store in Basel, Switzerland, using Butyric acid, forcing the store to close for two days. This assault was just one instance of vandalism against the chocolatier, which reportedly took place at seven different stores.

According to the Swiss news magazine Beobachter, negative press surrounding Läderach for its pro-life and pro-family positions was “clearly too much for the airline, which has many gay crew members.”

The left sure knows how to punish those that don’t toe the line. We on the right are babes in the woods when it comes to projecting and protecting our agenda and interests. No wonder the left owns all the major corporations and institutions. They’re not shy about using their brass knuckles against CEOs bureaucrats and politicians. And that is why we’re getting slaughtered in this culture war.

Which was and is concomitant with the incremental decline of true conservative Biblical faith and thus morals, which the founders presumed would enable a constitutional republic (with a relatively small government, for insofar as people are controlled from within then they should not need to be controlled from without). For the people directly or indirectly elect the interpreters of the Constitution.

Thus while 80% of evangelicals yet voted for the conservative side in the last 2 Pres. elections, yet the majority of the people still are on the liberal side, especially in the secular seminaries of education and thus media, including Hollywood.

For the hardest thing for a person or country to maintain living faith in - if and after they have persevered during affliction and or adversity - is affluence, with the latter being often a reward for obedience (even if by entering into the blessings procured by others).

Despite the declension and faith and morals, the poor offerings of the Left and the now even more radical left has enabled Republicans gain a slime majority in the Hose and to see Trump elected and a chance at reelection, but it should not even be close. However, even the latter a reprieve which still does not change the liberal control of education and media, and which young are the more deceived by.

It used to be the values were mainly formed at home, in a nuclear family of faith and church, and reinforced in education, while now they are mainly formed in quasi families, and media and liberal education, out of which come the liberals, from moderate to antifa anarchists/fascists.

Once they latter obtain control and intense persecution is realized, then the remnant of true believers will be manifest, who will do what should have been done all along.

If Liberals, like Antifa, had their way, we wouldn’t be far from a Krystalknacht incident. They are that intent on seizing and using power to enforce their policies.

Just spitballing here, but what if the Chocolate company owner had hired some black ops guys who tracked down the vandals and disappeared the top dogs... maybe broke the legs of a lot of the followers.

Might send a message, might drive a handful further Left. Beats letting them drive you out of business.

Just ordered some chocolate. However, it's worth mentioning that - even without the shipping fees (I reside in Europe) - it's pretty pricey.

Is the quality of their service worth putting money in the pockets of quislings who let the Left blackmail them into crushing a conservative’s business?

swiss air is afraid of loosing all that gay and lesbian business, the needle on the meter has not moved, yet they cut their nose off inspite of their faces. We see time and time again corporate suicide by their own hands and the extortion from these leftists groups and their agenda’s

To self: If the pilots are gay, do they fly “united”? (from an old Realist magazine cartoon. You should have seen the one entitled “One Nation Under God”. Paul Krasner was weird but funny. Now he’s dead so he’s no longer funny.

agreed- the left are on the verge of all out violence against Christians and conservatives- it’s like the mob is gathering, yelling and screaming, and they are just waiting for something, anything, to set them off
