      So, this is interesting news:

      https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/18/business/chick-fil-a-lgbtq-donations/index.html

      With this change, would you be willing to try Chik-fil-A?  Or, are you already a customer because you keep your lunch and your politics separate?

      From my perspective, it's a positive step, although I think it arose purely for financial reasons, and still not enough to get my business.

      Your thoughts?!?

        I wondered if the "possibly not as homophobic now" Chik-fil-A had a presence outside of the U.S., and behold – they are in Canada, and just opened their first restaurant in the UK last month:

        And if you want to absorb this story as covered in queer media, here's one from the UK, among many others:

        Still leading back to the questions:

        Do you think Chik-fil-A is being sincere? and

        Would any of this make a difference if you were hungry for a fast-food chicken sandwich?

          nah, boycott! there are plenty of other companies that have a clean track record. lol when it comes to lgbtq+ issues.
          remember they did something about it AFTER there was negative press.  Meaning if no press then they wouldn't have changed.
