Left Calls for Boycott of Chick-fil-A over Marriage Stance
pjmedia.com ^ | 6/13/2018 | Matt Margolis

. Earlier this week Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey was forced to apologize after eating at Chick-fil-A… during Pride Month! The horror! Twitter and Square CEO Jack Dorsey ignited a backlash online after revealing that he ate at Chick-fil-A this month.

On Saturday, Dorsey posted a photo on Twitter with the caption "Boost @ChickfilA," showing he had saved 10% on a $31.58 order at the fast-food chain. A "boost" is a cashback reward Square users can earn when using a Cash Card, which is a debit card from the payment platform.

Critics immediately seized on Dorsey's support of Chick-fil-A — whose CEO has come under fire for his views on same-sex marriage in the past — during Pride Month.

"You must love the taste of bigotry!" one person wrote in response.

"Why is Twitter boosting a notoriously anti-gay company during #PrideMonth?" another person wrote.

Among the critics was the former CNN anchor Soledad O'Brien, who said, "This is an interesting company to boost during Pride month, @jack."

Dorsey responded: "You're right. Completely forgot about their background."

I’m all for this!! The last time the left wanted a Chick-fil-A boycott, their business exploded and they starting opening more locations. One more good boycott, and maybe I can finally get a Chick-fil-A within driving distance of my house.

Exactly! This is just a redo of the first FAILED boycott. Chick-fil-A isn’t gonna feel this one either.

Do leftists ever have an original idea?

I swear to God this is all made up by some genius PR guy at Chik-fil-A.

Uh huh. "Hey Boss, I have a scheme that's guaranteed to spike sales and we can use it over and over because the people who hate us are too dumb not to help us."

"No way."

"Hold my sweet tea and watch this."

I had never tried Chick-fil-a before that day. Now every time I’m near my local Chick-fil-a, I make sure to stop by for a chicken sandwich, and waffle fries.

Same here. NEVER before that did I even enter one of their stores. Lefties drove me to them and now I eat there once a week or so.

I thought the left has been boycotting them for years.

They didn’t open three stores in lefty haven, I mean Manhattan. That’s just a figment.

I have never seen a busier place than Chick Fil A. Seems it doesn’t matter what time of the day, there is always a line. And all I want is their sweet ice tea. Chick Fil A has the absolute best sweet ice tea I have tasted. Because it’s not too sweet. You can actually taste the tea. It’s perfect iced tea.

Last time they tried to boycott Chick Fil A, it was packed ever more with people showing support. And what great employees too. Always so nice and kind. I hate the LEFT. I love Chick Fil A.
