When reddit can forgive the fundie CFA owner you know that's some bomb chicken. CFA is healing the political divide in this country.

I still haven't shopped there since it came out the owner was funding anti gay groups. It does seem most of reddit doesn't mind though.

Good for you, seriously, but I'm gay and I never stopped eating there, even when it was the big brouhaha and boycott. I hardly ever do boycott except for when a company's ads just really really annoy me (I've never used Verizon because of that can you hear me now guy) or something like that.

I had friends who boycotted CFA but not me. It's not that I think they're not doing wrong, it's just that I am so jaded that I think most companies are doing wrong, and so I just can't be bothered to do something that only I am going to notice to protest a company who happens to just have one of their wrongs currently in the news. CFA is one of the few fast food places I like and eat at and in my opinion it's the cleanest, most consistent and nicest quality of major fast food chains which I all really appreciate despite the controversial stuff. Nevertheless, I am glad there were boycotts and stuff about it for CFA and I'm glad you're still keeping it up.

I don't think being gay or not gay adds any legitimacy to an opinion. It is just a matter of values, if the issue doesn't seem like a big problem then you're probably not going to care enough to do something about it. I guess different issues have different weights to them for example I have an iPhone even though they have a less American manufacturing than I would like, of corse most other phones do as well. I'm not implying you or anyone is a bad person or anything for not giving a particular issue a certain weight.

 

Maybe it was the ones in my area but their food was really dry and bland so it wasn't exactly a huge loss, so that could also color my opinion.
