This sounds odd, but one of the things that gives me hope is the universal success, at least in the United States, of Chick fil-a.

This is something their movement-one of the most politically powerful, lavishly funded, and intimidating lobbies we have-has spent the past few years trying to destroy, and it's only become more popular.

They've shot all of their bullets at a business animated by Christian, Biblical values, and they were all blanks.

I think it illustrates that all of the wokeness displayed by these multinational corporations is a facade, which doesn't reflect the values of the American public at all.

The fact that they are riding the crest of an essentially synthetic, astroturf movement-and don't have the genuine love of the people they claim to speak for is something that can't be underestimated.

One Chick closing soon in England after LGBT complaining.
Other Chicks opening soon in Toronto, Ca.
The outreach continues, albeit at an uneven pace.

Good observation.

I think that they believe they *are* representing American values. They probably get the bulk of their “news” from the MSM, and have little contact with ordinary people. So when someone like Colin Kaepernick shows contempt for the flag and the people, a big corporation might actually believe that kind of self-loathing is an accurate reflection of the mood of the people, and act accordingly.
