  But if you didn’t know about it in advance, that system would be useful

  I don’t disagree, but:

  • People are weak when it comes to comfort food
  • Having this would create dialog about the problem at hand
  • Propping up a successful charity like this might cause corporate to question its policy, whereas a boycott results in hard to measure fiscal impact.

    Dan Cathy has no reason to question his biggotry. The conservatives in the United States made that clear by giving the chain record profits after he gave his speech, and after it came out that the restaurants direct profits were being donated to anti-lgbtq groups, including those that support conversation therapy.

    Heres an excerpt of what he had to say: “we’re inviting God’s judgment on our nation when we shake our fist at him and say we know better than you as to what constitutes a marriage. And I pray God’s mercy on our generation that has such a prideful, arrogant attitude that thinks we have the audacity to redefine what marriage is all about.”

    People like this need to shut up, or go die in a ditch somewhere so the rest of the world can see progress. The people that eat at this chain will always earn my contempt.
