Calling all FReeper Activists: Let's Blitz Chick-fil-A
@ChickfilA ^ | November 27, 2019 | Mrs Don-o

Posted on 11/27/2019 7:35:28 PM PST by Mrs. Don-o

`

Please go to @ChickfilA and give them a piece of your chicken-pluckin' mind.

It's claimed their "followers" dropped by 10%, or 110,000 over the past 4 weeks. (I think in general, stats about Twitter followers are highly manipulable and highly suspect, but let's just go with that.)

Anyhow, I have been sending them lots of messages about how bad they are for selling out to the bullies in the LGBT activist organizations. They are getting beat up by angryy conservative (ex)customers, especially for dropping Salvation Army, an act of foul treachery.

As of now, I think their customer comment tweets are running well over 50% anti-Chick-fil-A, so let's keep up the good work.

In the Comment below, I've put a bunch of my tweets which you can crib if you want to. At least they all fit in the box.

OK? Will you do it?

Chick-fil-A - - -left a bad taste in my mouth. Cowardice and Capitulation: The Shocking Things Chick-fil-A Funds


Chick-fil-A: No guts. No heart. Lukewarm. Squishy. And yes--- absolutely chicken.


They took my $, disrespected my conscience, dropped their best people-helping charities, and started funding scummy organizations I wouldn't want to give a nickel to. Read it and weep.


Looking up the facts on the internet. Wow. I mean, wow!


Talk about stupid: Dick's Sporting Goods: stops selling guns, alienates base, loses millions of dollars.

NFL: caves to National Anthem protests, alienates base, loses millions of dollars.

@ChickfilA: CAN WE GET SOME OF THAT ACTION?!


I'm not eating at CFA either. Like I told my girlfriend, "ChickFilA used to ="corporate conscience" to me. But now they're just chicken."


Here's what we like wa-a-a-ay better: Zaxby's, Bojangles, and Raisin Cane.


I try to spread the blessings around. Really I do. I make my own tortilla soup and -- & nuggets & the rest of the CFA menu, enough for my husband and son and myself -- & send the $$ we save to Salvation Army, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and other groups cut off by CFL.


An unnamed informant high up in Chick-fil-A corporate headquarters has leaked that you're getting a new mascot in place of the traditional Chick-fil-A cows: a *fabulous* *golden* *calf*! The new motto: Eat More LGBT. I just want to thank you for the new, crystal-clear messaging!!


Perfect without! From Day 1 Chick-fil-A always treated customers &associates with respect/courtesy regardless of sex, sexuality or etc.

But now they bow to pressure and dump good charities in favor of ONLY LGBT groups? No nuggets. And shame on 'em and their chickens, too


Then -- Pro Tip --- don't use Chick-Fil-A. From Day 1 they always treated customers &associates with respect and courtesy regardless of sex, sexuality etc. Great.

But now they bow to pressure and give charitable $$ in favor of ONLY LGBT groups? No nuggets. And what a shame.


I'll take no sauce, no nugget, and no Chick-fil-A. - From Day 1 they always treated customers &associates with respect and courtesy regardless of sex, sexuality etc. Great.

But now they bow to pressure groups and dump good charities in favor of *ONLY* LGBT.


Being a freedom-loving, free-wheeling, civic-minded activist and doing my community a good deed. That's why I blow the whistle on the lamentable behavior of Chick-fil-A. They dishonored themselves. You know, just chicken.


How very nice. Good day to you. But have you tried the KFC? It's excellent.


Chick-fil-A don't be ray-ciss, but dey sho be chicken.


Hello my friend, I guess I'm even *more* disappointed than you. Because I'm not going until Chick-fil-A apologizes to the Christian groups and publicly repents of their moral collapse in the face of LGBT pressure tactics. Chick-fil-A: Kinda squishy, but really, really chicken.


Excuse me, but I believe you misspelled that. It's LGBT-STD-HIV. Or the favorite new term for the new BFF's: LGBT-Chick-fil-A.


The LGBTQ bullies *demanded* that U stop contributing to 2 Christian charities, annnd...Chick-fil-A stopped. But you say you didn't cave? Right.

My family used to go out of our way for Chick-fil-A. For us, you were the corporation with *conviction*.

Now... you're just chicken.


Just want you to know the LGBT will never be satisfied. You've alienated your strongest cultural supporters but have not even remotely appeased the passions of GLAAD and the other hostile activists. So you'll be alone.I'm getting a rotisserie chicken at Kroger, thanks. It's sad.


I have never thought harm, spoken harm or done harm to anybody because of them being gay If this makes me a homophobe, then that word is meaningless. LGBT activist orgs are in permanent attack mode, and none of us deserve that. Leave ChickfilA alone. Leave Salvation Army alone.


Chickfila Always treated LGBT customers and employees exactly the same as everybody else. No discrimination. But your bullying activist organizations pushed them til they finally dropped Salvation Army, whichsaves the lives of gay youth/runaways. IDK why you punish the good guys


The nearby ChickfilA has good food, I know the local owner, decent guy and super employees. THEY feel so bad that the "shirts" at Corporate caved in to LGBT. ChickfilA always treated EVERYBODY fairly but now they are discriminating against Christian groups like Salvation Army.


Let's put short chicken recipes on this twitterfeed. I can do wonders with generic grocery rotisserie chicken, bet you can too. I do feel the local CFA owners and associates have been treated unfairly by the new corporate giving policy. Hey, long live homemade chicken salad!

LuvU guys but..The Fellowship of Christian Athletes received $1.65 million from y'all last year. The Salvation Army $115,000. The 'LGBTQ' 'community' demanded that Chick-fil-A stop contributing to these two Christian charities. Chick-fil-A stopped... But they did not cave. Right.


Love you guys but...want to open more in TN? Then stop discriminating ag. Christian charities. We're going to give the $ we normally spent at ChickfilA to the Salvation Army. If enough people do that, it'll make up for the rather stingy $100K that ChickfilA took away from them.


I useta(heart) ChickfilA's friendly attitude to all. But sadly, now I say "You are the boycott to my boycott Chickfila" because they dumped Salvation Army which serves everybody of every color, sexuality, language or whatever, fairly and without discrimination. Not fair to S.A.


How I used to feel about @ChickfilA ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

How I feel now ﴾͡๏̯͡๏﴿ O'RLY? ಠ╭╮ಠ

Let's see how many of their customers find betrayal unappetizing...And how many CFL jobless managers and laid-off employees will be eating their Christmas dinners at Salvation Army.


Waiting to see how many of their customers find betrayal unappetizing...And how many CFL jobless managers and laid-off employees will be eating their Christmas dinners at Salvation Army.


ChickfilA's "associates" should have a voice in the matter. I'm SURE they wouldn't kick out Salvation Army. Next the LGBT's are going to demand that they give free out sandwiches at Drag Queen Day.

Q: What's a kid sandwich?

A: Two Drag Queens and a 3-year-old.


I was just reading about how fair, caring and giving Salvation Army is to all people in need, no matter their race, sexuality or whatever, without discrimination. ChickfilA kicking them out is just despicable. Pass it on.

- I SERIOUSLY THINK THEY DON'T CARE. THEY EVEN THREW OUT SALVATION ARMY.

Yeah, tis the season to kick out Salvation Army, apparently Christ and Christmas too. The "reason for the Season" is not peppermint chocolate chip anything. I'm going to take my chicken-and-shake $ and give it straight to Salvation Army. Merry Christmas!


Useta like their milk shakes too, but now it's so political, it's all-politics all the time. And of all people to antagonize, Salvation Army?! Why throw shade on them? They help everybody, gay straight or whatever. Gonna just make chicken salad at home! Make my own milkshake too.


I am SO tempted by your great chicken, but you could do better. Why do pressure groups who use coercion to enforce cooperation-- GLAAD, Lambda Legal --- have such a hold on you? I esp. dislike how you shafted Salvation Army. So do better, or I'm outta here-- to Kentucky Fried.


The devil has cheated them. They're not even going to gain the world. I give it 2 months before @ChickfilA's business in the USA is cut by 30%. In a year? Maybe they think they'll fly in Gay Paree, but I doubt it. So it's a lose-lose for them. Losing your soul & gaining bupkis.


You used to be my best pal, @chickfilA. For 5-6 years. But now I feel our relationship isn't based on trust anymore. I need to know: is it true that organizations who *agree* with CFL's founder on the nature of marriage, are now not eligible to receive CFL's charitable funding?

I don't get why LGBT organizations who use coercion to enforce everyone's cooperation with their program-- I'm talking about ActUp, GLAAD, GLSEN, HRC, Lambda Legal --- get to be called "progressives." It's a word that used to have such positive connotations. Live and Let Live.


You have a point there. Think I'll get me a generic rotisserie chicken at the grocery store and make some of my incomparable chicken salad with sliced gherkins and --- shh, don't tell ---a drip of beer. Yum,


Seems that ChickfilA has been drifting from is corporate mission principles for years now since founder retired. Truett Cathy gave $35 million in scholarships for Chick-fil-A employees to pursue higher education. Present management, meh.


Ha! That actually did make me laugh! Thanks, I'm going to take my chicken-sandwich $ and pay it straight to Salvation Army. In dozens of countries, "Hey Mr. can you tell me, where a man might find a bed?" --will get you to a City Mission or a Salvation Army. They help everybody.


Do not underestimate the power of the social media. Already triggering a stampede to Popeye's! Chick-Fil-A Trades Adoring Christian Fans For Outraged Mob That Won't Be Appeased Until Their Every... U.S.—Chick-fil-A has said it will stop making donations to Christian groups that oppose the LGBTQ movement. The move is said to be a "good trade" as Chick-fil-A has sacrificed its Christian fans in exc. for gays who still hate them.


I must have missed some context here, so help me. Who's hating whom, & what is the evidence? I did shelter work in 2 cities, and saw Salvation Army as a reliable and respectful resource for emergency shelter, food esp. with the gay street/homeless/runaway youth. They saved lives.


Let's talk about fairness. How is insulting @SalvationArmy ,*THE* *largest* *provider*of shelter/food services to needy LGBT people, without exception, in every country, social justice? Why discriminate against those who do not discriminate against you?


Don't worry, the free market will do its wonderful work. I give it 3 months before @ChickfilA's business in the USA is cut by 30%. In a year? Maybe they'll fly in London and Gay Paree, but I doubt it. They'll look at that pathetic chicken-ism and say "Je ne sais quoi...."


2..without discrimination (sex, sexuality, sexual expression or identity.) They save lives, they don't turn anybody away, and they do this all over the world, even when the surrounding culture is hostile, e.g. majority Muslim or Sharia areas. Enuff for me!



But I've gotten an education! I learned that "The love of $ is the root of all manner of evil" and that there are lots of good chicken places like Bojangles and Caines, where I can get a good sandwich without being reminded how for years I was made a fool of by Chick-Full-Lies.


ChickfilA left a bad taste in my mouth. Sorry.

An incomplete honesty is never good! You turn your backs on e.g. Salvation Army, cut them off cold, then insinuate they're not good enough to be associated w/ you and your new message. Which is? "Forget the Lord, get right with SPLC"? They're a 10 on the bigotry Richter Scale!


But tens of 1000'a of people will eat for free on Thanskgiving at Salvation Army, and I wish ChickfilA had not insulted them and cut them off cold. -ChickfilA slandered this groups' mission and intent--- like they're unworthy of support because the LBGT activists can't tolerate actual honest-to-God Christians.

I keep responding to your posts with “Kanye West”

But indeed Kanye West is premiering his video for his song “Closed on Sunday” tomorrow, Thanksgiving — which is the greatest homage in pop culture the establishment has received yet!

And this is how Chik Fil A responds? The timing is so ridiculous

“Closed On Sunday”

Closed on Sunday, you’re my Chick-fil-A
Closed on Sunday, you my Chick-fil-A
Hold the selfies, put the ‘Gram away
Get your family, y’all hold hands and pray
When you got daughters, always keep ‘em safe
Watch out for vipers, don’t let them indoctrinate
Closed on Sunday, you my Chick-fil-A
You’re my number one, with the lemonade
Raise our sons, train them in the faith
Through temptations, make sure they’re wide awake
Follow Jesus, listen and obey
No more livin’ for the culture, we nobody’s slave

Stand up for my home
Even if I take this walk alone
I bow down to the King upon the throne
My life is His, I’m no longer my own
I pray to God that He’ll strengthen my hand
They will think twice steppin’ onto my land
I draw the line, it’s written in the sand
Try me and you will see that I ain’t playin’
Now, back up off my family, move your hands
I got my weapons in the spirit’s land
I, Jezebel don’t even stand a chance

Jezebel don’t even stand a chance

Our Chick-fil-a just opened last week after being closed for about 6 weeks for upgrades. It is packed all the time and my family eats there almost every time we past it.

Right after that news was published, someone at FR posted a link to a Salvation Army page that pandered to the homosexual activists.

From whom? I could believe that for their "associates" (local franchises) because he local owners and employees tend to be very conservatie, and super-nice people as well.

But the suits at the top, and their charitable foundation took a hard swerve to the left a couple of years ago. Gave to, among other bad guys, the SPLC.

They're a house divided --- divided by the turncoats at the top --- and, tragic to say, I think they've started the engines of their own ruin.

"In 2017 Chick-fil-A donated money to the same corrupt SPLC [Southern Poverty Law Center] that still outrageously lists FRC [Family Research Council] as a "hate group."

"The Chick-fil-A Foundation's recent announcement about its future funding again reaffirmed its redirection and capitulation. It just so happens that the same three groups targeted for years by LGBT organizations as anti-LGBT "hate groups" just happened to be the same ones that would no longer be funded: The Salvation Army, Paul Anderson Youth Home and Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

" Chick-fil-A's press release acknowledges that these groups were "characterized as anti-LGBT groups" but never dispels that."

That's from The Radiance Foundation, an outstanding Black pro-life organization.

Also, Radiance documents that just as Chick-fil-A was cutting off Salvation Army, they were opting instead for Covenant House, which started off doing shelter work for street kids, but has taken a hard left:

"Covenant House, a homeless shelter for youth, takes pride in its promotion of all things LGBTQ. They even marched in the New York "Gay Pride" parade to show their inclusivity cred.

"Chick-fil-A funds the deeply political YWCA, a radically pro-abortion and pro-LGBTQ organization that repeatedly partners with Planned Parenthood.

"Chick-fil-A also funds the DC-based New Leadership Council that identifies as a "hub of progressive millennial thought leadership" which exists to "support one another along their individual path to a more progressive political and cultural landscape.

"Chick-fil-A has given a sizable donation ($50k) to The Pace Center for Girls, yet another pro-abortion organization. The education and advocacy group featured radical pro-abortion feminist Gloria Steinem (the "I Had An Abortion" activist who declared that birthing children is the "fundamental cause of climate change") as their keynote speaker for their most recent girls' Summit.

"Or, how about Usher's New Look, R&B star Usher Raymond IV's liberal non-profit? The group's Disruptivator Summit is all about progressive community organizing on pivotal social issues, and Chick-fil-A funds it ($38,700 in 2017).

"Chick-fil-A also gives tens of thousands to Chris 180 ($27,500 in 2017, $25k in 2019), a pro-LGBT behavioral health and child welfare service agency. The organization boasts of being awarded the "Leader in Supporting and Serving LGBT Families and Youth from the Human Rights Campaign Foundation (HRC)."

Nothing promotes human degradation quite like the pro-abortion HRC — the multi-million-dollar LGBT powerhouse that recently pushed for the legalization of prostitution in DC."

Yes, that's what Dan Cathy said... in 2014.

But in a year or two, Chick-fil-A was funding the SPLC, which venomously atacks --- with intended harm--- with relentless lawfare --- Christian organizations that resist the Queering of the Kids, and in fact any Christian presence in the public square.

Then they developed a whole pro-abort pro-LGBT collection of hard-left beneficiaries for their charities.

Then 2019, made a clean sweep of dumping the few remaining Christian hold-outs like Salvation Army and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

We only started noticing when they did that. We couldn't believe our eyes!! Our hearts were broken.

ChickfilA has a glorious history of decades of prudent and principled giving. $38 MILLION, over the years, to support scholarships for their own employees ("associates") to advance their education.

NOw: welcome to Left Crunchy Chickenland, where your chicken-sandwich cashflow funds filth.

Good plan. They certainly didn’t seem to mind us spending our money there and doubling the size of the company, back when we thought they stood for family values.

But now they just don’t back off of supporting Christian groups, they BRAG ABOUT IT, and then give money to the near-terrorist group, the SPLC.

Well, I was never all that hot on their food, but I did go on occasion, but I guess if they don’t give a crap about how I feel, then I don’t give a crap about whether they’ll very soon have to deal with being over-extended.
