SIAP on the Popeye's thread, I searched

LINK

quote:

If you love fried chicken sandwiches but don’t want to support Chick-fil-A’s homophobia, Popeyes has a new option for you.

While Chick-fil-A has a documented history of donations to anti-LGBTQ groups through its foundation as well as homophobic statements by its executives, Popeyes does not. Neither company is rated on the Human Rights Campaign’s latest Corporate Equality Index (participation is voluntary), but there are sources that say Popeyes is a better choice for supporters of LGBTQ rights.

I didn’t realize homophobia was a sandwich flavoring.

This is not the Baton Rouge Advovate.

It's the gay newspaper.

Popeyes might be anti-gay, but just taking forever to announce it while they make more spicy.

What are the anti-LGBTQ groups, specifically?

What are the homophobic statements by the executive, specifically?

I’ll take my homophobic sandwich and a my side of waffle fries with a friendly “my pleasure “ and be totally fine.

Not the same website

Advocate.com is a gay rights periodical

TheAdvocate.com is the local BR paper

Yeah but they apparently don’t support or care about mental health issues.


I mean seriously, how do you not have any fricking chicken ready?
