  No, the ceo is homophobic, but the chain itself has no restrictions on hiring gay people, serving gay people, etc. some people don’t seem to get the difference.

    So they do the minimum required by law?

      Sadly I think they’re legally allowed to not serve gay people in certain states. The minimum is just hiring gay people :(

    The owners directly support anti-lgbtq organizations.

      And plenty of owners of other companies support even worse orgs, I don’t get your point. What the owners do in their free time honestly doesn’t mean jack shit. NASA uses SpaceX whose owner is currently one of the most bigoted people on the planet. Do you still support NASA?

        I directly control my spending, not NASA’s.

  The CEO is oftentimes a company policymaker; I think it would be foolish to ignore that fact.

  I’ve been boycotting C-f-a for at least 15 years now; and I don’t let my friends or suggest that my family eat there either; except as an emergency uber last resort. The gas station burritos would be suggested first.
