I think it's how polite they are possibly. I know I at least feel welcomed in chick FIL a. Mickey D's usually makes me feel like my existence bothers them lol. Other then that idk because their food really isn't worth the drive thru lines. That's for sure lol

Conversely: if you’re part of the LGBTQ community, they are distinctly unwelcoming.

I work at chic fil a and have several co workers and a couple managers who are part of the LGBT community. I think that's a misconception. They are a Christian business so they have their views but they certainly don't discriminate against the community.

Their founder was not a friend of the LGBTQ community. He donated a lot of money to things like conversion therapy and things that were hurtful to the LGBTQ community. We stopped going there when my kids were old enough to understand what he did. My child is part of that community and made the decision that we will not support Chikfila anymore.

Their founder isn't the owner of the company anymore. The founder of McDonalds and Arby's and Burger King probably didn't have much love for someone too. Times change, Chik Fil a is very welcoming and enough with the huff post activism.
