McDonald’s Turns Golden Arches Upside Down ‘In Honor Of Women’

LYNWOOD (CBSLA) — A McDonald’s in Lynwood turned its golden arches upside down in celebration of International Women’s Day.

The fast food chain said flipping its logo is “in honor of the extraordinary accomplishments of women everywhere.”

International Women’s Day takes place March 8.

KCAL9’s Tom Wait reported from the Lynwood location. He reported that this location seemed to be the only one taking part in the celebration locally.

19-year-old Cynthia Longoria, who lives and works in Lynwood, said she appreciated the gesture.

“That’s amazing,” she said, “as a female in a low income family. from a minority, it’s great to see representation of not only my gender but in my neighborhood. It feels awesome.”

She said the day is a reminder for women to become empowered.

“I think about it a lot,” Longoria said, “because I think every day is International Women’s Day. Because without women, this world would not be going around. It’s just a reality of the situation.”

"...as a female in a low income family. from a minority,"

Just put on a shirt that says VICTIM, and be done with it, Cynthia.

Wouldn’t that represent legs spread all akimbo in the air? Symbols. They mean everything.

It does nothing to improve the quality of their food which, IMHO, is predominantly crap.

So they go from the golden arches to the saggy boobs?
McDonald’s, your virtue signaling is as cheap and tasteless as your “food”.

Last night Tucker started a series on the status of men, and the future, which was pretty scary. His guest, a professor, is bold; I wonder how he stays employed as un-PC as he is. He’ll be doing a new segment every Wednesday for a few weeks.

Sometimes I’m embarrassed to be a woman.

I haven’t eaten at McSleaze in a couple of years.

This move reinforces how good that decision was.

Cynthia--If you identify yourself as a minority female in a low income family you are doomed. If you identify yourself as an individual human being there is nothing you cannot accomplish.

Nope, I’m not buying it. I think they’re trying to pass themselves off as a Wendy’s.

Exaxtly, everyone is a freakin victim today. This is another scam invented by the left, you are a victim and only the Democrap party can save you and the enemy is the hetero white male. Criminal foreign invaders are victims, let’s ignore that they are criminals just by sneaking into the country, instead they are victims by the evil racist white man. Women are victims of the evil straight white man who doesn’t pay them an equal wage, although I’m pretty much sure I don’t make $20 million dollars for 2 months work like Meryl Streep.
