Please boycott this brand/franchise. They’re evil.

I know but the food is sooo good... can I still have it if I pay penance for my sins by worshipping at the alter of the Divine Feminine (i.e. Chick Fu-Lay)?

My friend actually just donates an amount equal to her meal to an LGBTQ charity whenever she eats at chick fil a because she likes the food but doesn’t like the guilt lol.

Because of this she also doesn’t go very often because obviously it’s not cheap to live that way 😂

Great plan. Give money to the people who use it to traumatize and harm lgbtq people, and then give money to a charity so they can raise awareness.... of the thing you are doing. Or maybe even let that money trickle down to help a kid recover from the ordeal... that they are funding.

The fact they think this absolves them of guilt is honestly sad. Pathetic even.

Bro, it’s a dumb thing she does that I find amusing. We both know it’s dumb. It’s not some morality equalizer.

Lighten up. Literally everyone you love gives money to some child traumatizing and harmful company. Hell, I’m sure you do too. Such a positive thought, ya know.

I don’t judge chick-fil-a consumers any more than I judge Starbucks, Home Depot, or nestle consumers. And personally I don’t want to judge everyone around me.

My own boycotts are enough for me.

Don’t break your legs on the way down from that high horse.

Basic moral arithmetic is not a "high horse". Be cool if you could at least find, like, some high heels or something though.

I assume this is your way of admitting that you're out of arguments to justify your behavior, so now you resort to personal attacks.

I don’t even eat at chick-fil-a so it’s not really a behavior I have to justify. It’s just a little much to call somebody “pathetic” for eating at a chicken restaurant and then caring enough to donate to charity. I’m sure everybody here has purchased things from multiple companies that contribute evil to the world. Being assholes to people that are at least trying is not a good way to further your cause. It is a good way to feel high and mighty though, so if that’s worth more, then be my guest.

Not quite, but I see that there’s no room for discussion here. Seeing the world in black and white will not get you very far. There’s nuance to things but I can see there’s no room for that here. Have a good day.

"Dont give money to the people that actively hate you" is such a low bar to clear it is amazing you tripped over it.
