    You like their food (objective, so there’s no “lying” around that), and so excuse their politics. I get it, it’s like separating the artist from the art. Lots of people pay to see Tom Cruise movies, or now to see Ed Sheeran, or maybe Bill Burr.

    Some people don’t.

      You like their food

      What the fuck are you talking about?

      I said compared to every other fastfood place that uses processed chicken patties, it’s good.

      Some people don’t.

      The other point you e completely missed:

      So if anyone is boycotting Chick-fil-A, they have valid reasons. It’s just damn near every other option is even worse, so if they have consistent logic their boycott list is every major corporation.

      How the fuck is “So if anyone is boycotting Chick-fil-A, they have valid reasons” defending chicfila’s politics?!

      I’m saying boycotting them is valid

      But only boycotting them is illogical

        This part:

        If someone’s only issue with Chick-fil-A is the anti-lgbt stuff, that doesn’t mean they’re a good person, it means they only care about the demographic they consider “us”.

        If you want to make another thread about how you want to boycott all fast food restaurants, go ahead and do that. No one is stopping you.

        Saying that boycotting chic fil alone out of all the fast food companies is illogical, in a comment thread about the specific harms they’re doing, is defending them by throwing up a smoke screen. “They’re all bad”. Ok… But bringing that up here is diverting the conversation. Which i am participating in…
