Doesn’t change the fact that they ever decided to donate to them in the first place. Some things you just don’t get to come back from; sucks to be you.
Reminds me of a joke:
So a man walks into a bar, and sits down. He starts a conversation with an old guy next to him. The old guy has obviously had a few. He says to the man:
“You see that dock out there? Built it myself, hand crafted each piece, and it’s the best dock in town! But do they call me “McGregor the dock builder”? No! And you see that bridge over there? I built that, took me two months, through rain, sleet and scorching weather, but do they call me “McGregor the bridge builder”? No! And you see that pier over there, I built that, best pier in the county! But do they call me “McGregor the pier builder”? No!”
The old guy looks around, and makes sure that nobody is listening, and leans to the man, and he says:
You’re missing my point. I am saying that the “free market shall decide” is enough justification to boycott them, regardless of how long ago they were doing shitty things.
Since we’re already splitting hairs and crap like that around here I’d like to point out that it does not, in fact, suck to be Chick-fil-A. They’re raking in billions and don’t give a rat’s ass.
Also yes, dissolve the company. … But gimme their weird chickeny pickle sandwiches and nugget-things because for some reason I like them 😰 Won’t buy them for myself though.
If every pro-LGBT person was like you, then stopping those donations would have accomplished nothing for them and they might as well have kept doing it.
What are you talking about? I didn’t want to just not give them credit for changing; I wanted to destroy them for having committed the offense in the first place.
Corporations are not people. Corporations do not have freedom of speech. Incorporation is a privilege, and when that privilege is abused to spread hate, it should be revoked.

So they shouldn’t bother trying to fix the errors of their ways?
What ever happened to the free market deciding? I thought the whole point of capitalism is that if you do awful things your business dies?
They should have lost all of their customers the moment the public found out what they were doing. Some of us aren’t going back to such a business.
The whole point of capitalism is to whore out our humanity for money while trying to outrun entropy.
I’m aware that’s how it works in practice. I’m saying that even by conservative, capitalist idealism they should have been shut down for being bigots.
Did you miss the fact that the free market did in fact decide on this case? The market decided their business would succeed wildly.
You’re missing my point. I am saying that the “free market shall decide” is enough justification to boycott them, regardless of how long ago they were doing shitty things.
They should be punished by being stripped of their corporate charter and dissolved. That what you wanted to hear?
