I can get a chicken sandwich that doesnt support religious bigotry.
Apparently Jack can't, what a shame.
Yes really. Correct. You're giving money to a corporation that actively SPENDS YOUR MONEY making the lives of LGBT+ people hell. But whatever. Nothing matters. Every choice is of the same moral value as every other choice.Not really
I'm not doing a charity by purchasing a chicken sandwich
“You’re right. Completely forgot about their background,” the Twitter honcho replied.
Seems he didn’t recall their background. Can you be sure he was malicious in his intentions?
Yeah, I guess I'm just not cool with "shaming" anyone for something they didn't knowingly do. The ends don't justify the means.
I think the only reason it rubs me the wrong way is that he owned up to the fact that he knew what they're about but then left the post up anyway. If he actually cared or in any way felt bad about supporting Chick-fil-a, why didn't he do something about it?
I have no idea. Do you think that by leaving it up more people are now aware of the fact that Chic Filet was/is founded by a bigot? That's worth something.
I think by leaving it up it's possible more people are aware of the background. However, I also think leaving it up potentially allows a platform for people to spout bigotry - as so often appears to be the case with these types of social media posts. It was terrible timing.
What is 'knowingly' in this instance? Because their political stance on this issue is not exactly a secret. It's not a matter of much moral calculus to say 'Nah, I'll get not bigoted chicken instead' and then decide to never eat Chick-fil-A again. Jack will survive.
Yeah, I was referencing a person eating a chicken sandwich and then after the fact finding out that the place where he got the sandwich was founded by a bigot and then agreeing that he shouldn’t have eaten there. This, to me, is not a story worth sharing or propagating. However, Twitters effed up policy’s should be examined. I see the two as completely separate.
