Chick-fil-A CEO says white Americans need to get on their knees and shine black peoples' shoes

I watched it. It was worse than I thought it could possibly be.

[Allegra]

I don’t get on my knees for anybody but Jesus Christ. And I certainly don’t shine anybody’s shoes.

How about Dan get on his knees and scrub my kitchen floor? With a toothbrush.

Are you advocating watching or reading what we are commenting on? Are you some anti-FR radical? /s

Dan Cathy’s statement and actions seem very scripted and are definitely virtue signaling, but they aren’t particularly offensive. He’s advocating humility and love which is a Christian value. Jesus washed the disciples feet and told them to love one another after all. It just comes off awkward here IMHO.

If I have to deal only with companies where the CEO’s aren’t woke I probably will end up naked, starving and stranded.

I have never been met with a LBGT banner/sign or advocacy of anything woke in a Chick-fil-A. I have been met with a courteous staff, clean restaurant, good food, often a plaque with scholarships awarded, and occasionally a prayer request box. I really don’t care what Dan Cathy thinks as long as Chick-fil-A serves customers quality products and doesn’t promote discord and social pathologies. Target and a lot of other retailers and restaurants could learn from Chick-fil-A.

Chick-fil-A, once a go to for many folks, has drank the liberal koolaid. Never again will I, or anyone I know, ever go there. That’s a promise.

Yet another thing blacks want whites to do for them.

[Disambiguator]

It’s official: Chick-fil-a annoys me.

[ScottinVA]

Couldn’t care less. My fried and baked chicken will top theirs any day of the week. I don’t need to patronize anyone who can’t top my recipe.

Speaking of Popeyes....

Oh good grief.

He was emotionally moved by some action he had seen, not by Spirit-directed wisdom. He also decided that that should dictate actions between races on a large scale. Imo, it was a presumptuous invasion on the personal privacy of the black man.

Although I don't participate in the uncommon backwoods church practice of foot-washing, it is not ugly, rash, impulsive or presumptuous as was done here with the shoe-shining. If I recall right there is also an opt-out for those uncomfortable with it.

In Christ's time on Earth, the roads were unpaved, dry, and dusty. People wore sandals. There were no showers or running water. Foot washing is from that environment.

As far as shining shoes, I offer you the Chattanooga Shoe Shine Boy (youtube).

I do not believe this for a second. He knows this would absolutely ruin the company, not just from boycotts but not being able to find good employees. Who would work for a man that says something this racist?

[Petrosius]

Is the left trying to start a race war? I ask this seriously.

[Skywise]

Yup - he said this 3 years ago.

[HereInTheHeartland]

Wow.
I listened to the clip and that’s pretty much what he says.
He’s spitting on the graves of the 600,000 Civil War dead.
Will Jane Fonda now join his board ?

[foundedonpurpose]

Mods, flag this. Miss representation.

[Secret Agent Man]

You do the wokey brokey as you guilt shame everyone

Thats why you’re broke and done

[wetgundog]

Kiss his company good-bye. Not eating there.
