Oh wow, as a gay student of Northeastern University I didn't even know this happened. Honestly I'm conflicted: on the one hand, I wouldn't want my money to fund directly or indirectly causes that actively work against my interests. On the other hand, this campus is in dire need of some good eats and, ultimately, when I buy chicken from Chick-Fil-A, I'm just paying for the chicken. If that chicken money goes toward unsavory causes and I know it, am I still responsible? I think I must be at least partially so.

But their chicken nuggets are heavenly. :c

I hear ya. cliffelam put it well, "
    I can't worry too much about downstream purity of profit intentions"
. If you knew that every nugget you bought = money towards an anti-gay agenda that would be one thing but according to Chic-Fil-A, they are actually donating to the organizations for some of the positive outreach they provide. Could just be spin either way.
