You sound bitter

You ALLOW politics run your life

I chose not to

I patronize the businesses I do because I like the products/services they provide

Chick Fil A should set up a private foundation, donate to that and let the foundation disperse the money as seen fit. That way corporate isn’t involved and they can keep making great chicken sandwiches that Americans love. But that is my opinion, they can do whatever they want with their money. Once I paid it to them, it is theirs. They can donate and support Hillary for President for all I care.

I don’t want to bog myself down with researching nonsense instead of just researching what I need. Right now I looking to replace my dishwasher, I am researching which is the best model, quiet, and most bang for the buck so to speak, but of course willing to pay more quality, as long as it is worth it to me. I am not researching to see if the company donates to Dimms or if the night Janitor went to a Joe Biden event last month.

I know exactly why blue laws were jettisoned. Now you don’t have a day of rest where families get to be together

And that, in a nutshell, is why the Left ends up winning every damned one of these things.

Because they are willing to sustain boycotts and pressure campaigns to the bitter end, while we are not.

The founder Samuel Truett Cathy died five years ago. Kids Dan, Bubba and Trudy run it now. Five years ago CEO Dan backed off of their prior Christian perspectives and went “non-political”.

Not too many businesses continue to walk in the founder's footsteps when the "old man" dies or is shoved aside.

‘Now I was reliably told on here by other freepers that this was all fake news and chic-fil-a wasn’t kowtowing’

all right, enough is enough, I won’t stand for anymore of this...Chik Fil A is not ‘kowtowing’in the least...they are simply ‘acting in an excessively subservient manner’, so there...

kowtowing, indeed...

Doesn’t matter to me as well as many Americans who don’t let politics run their lives

If you're not willing to take a stand when it costs you almost nothing to do so, then you certainly can't be counted on to make a stand when it might cost you a lot. Go ahead and live your life that way - it's your business. A life without principle is not for me, though.

Corporate Chick Fil A’s Facebook page is no longer searchable on Facebook, but is on other search engines.

There are several thousand angry responses to each of their recent posts.

Advance apologies to the resident anti-FBers...

https://www.facebook.com/ChickfilA/

There’s cultural/moral war going on out there; it’s hard to believe that anyone still on this website is so dense that they can’t see it. You won’t lose the country you love by losing one big battle...it’ll be lost by losing a million little battles.

Amen to that.

I agree that Dicks will probably fail shortly. But that’s ok because the CEO is virtuous. Which seems to be the difference between leftist CEOs and conservative ones - leftists will plow the company under for their ideology - conservatives won’t stand up for theirs - even when they’re winning.

Now the pressure is on the franchise owners to decide whether to stay with the business or not. Could be lots of new corporate dictates coming down the pipe.


Are you kidding? Seriously, they just changed how they donate to charities, who cares?

If Chick-fil-A does not reverse their decision, they will become just another fast-food chain.

Whoever made these recommendations needs to be fired, and the company needs to do some market research on their customers.

This decision was a slap in the face to their loyal customers and fans.

I find it interesting that statements made like the one to which you responded seem to be primarily by freepers who joined SINCE TRUMP’S PRESIDENCY BEGAN. At least one on this thread, and then three others since yesterday who I welcomed to FR. All in my recent posting history.

eBay last year created their own payment system and don’t rely on Paypal anymore

Good

Closed my paypal account since I don’t need them anymore, felt great

Oh...so you’re too lazy (or meek) to fight back.

Well, just take your helmet off and sit on the sideline, grampa. While your sitting out and letting other, better people than you fight the fight, be sure to enjoy that “delicious chicken sandwich that American’s love.”

To equate this issue with researching whether or not a company’s janitor went to a Dem. rally clearly demonstrates a lack of cognitive ability. Anyway, stay fat, dumb, and happy with that order of waffle-fries.

I was a lurker for about 7 years before I created an account.

You need new, younger people interested in conservatism, President Trump, Republican party because, nobody lives forever.

Sorry, Chicken Sandwiches don’t need to be political
