I was giving you the benefit of the doubt. If you're sub-Boomer age and you have that many posts, you should re-evaluate your life.

Sounds a lot like Walmart. When Sam was alive, you couldn't print enough Made in USA signs. 10 years after death, you can't find anything made in USA.

You’ll understand if I don’t take advice from a prick I’m sure.

Life is great. Hope yours is fine too.

People go to CFA because the food is good, restaurant is clean, and service is friendly. I give 0 shits about anything else.

Some people go for those reasons. Many, in addition to those reasons, pick CFA over numerous fast food alternatives because of their charitable giving choices and conservative stances on controversial issues.

I have fricks to give, or, better said to not give, if they persist in this policy.

I suspect others may have a similar perspective.

I don't need a restaurant but restaurants need customers.

I don't understand anything you do.

Example: you keep calling me a prick like I'm supposed to be insulted from it.

Greed does funny things to people. CFA wasn't the first and won't be the last to see distinct changes once the original vision dies with the founder.

Well, guess I won't have to go out of my way to patronize them anymore.


I think MRE's and FOX news are the only things not boycotted around here. With the latter on thin ice.

You can dig around and find something to hand-wring about for every company and most of CFAs customers aren't nutjobs, they just want a good chicken sandwich. This is 100% the right call esp. considering their expansion plans.

It's not. But whatever. They could have kept going exactly as they were and not a thing would have changed. As it stands now, they appear to be capitulating to the Alphabet weirdos. Doesn't mean I won't still go to Chick Fil A, but I am disappointed in them. I'm pretty sure they care.

Focusing on issues rather than people is smart IMO.

That depends on their goals. CFA has never been a profit-driven business; their goals were a mixture of identity, principles, high standards and profit. If the founder's kids (I'm assuming that's who made this decision) are ditching part of the formula that's gotten them to this level it might be the right call. The fact that they're still very publicly claiming that they're still going to give to charities tells me they're trying to straddle the fence instead of jumping it. That rarely works out but time will tell.

Cool. Any comments on the actual topic?


It doesn’t seem like something that you should be whining and crying about.

"Ok Boomer" is a such a retarded phrase. It tends to make the person using it look like, well, a retarded person.

Better?

Such a slap to the face to the base that has rallied to their support from the beginning.
The sandwiches still taste the same. If anything else matter to you, you’re the same as the LGBTs who boycotted.

Anyone getting the chicken sammich is an idiot. Much better ones available at every fast food and small business establishment, but if we are talking nuggets or tenders or any of their biscuits that is a different story. It is like they got lazy when making the chicken sammich.
