you mean look at how a tiny number of very poorly-informed people on facebook are making public posts, driven by the right-wing media who gnash their teeth at any criticism of their supporters whatsoever?

A very sad country

neither

they're saying that john Schnatter was likely lying about his sales dropping

Internet Warriors screaming into the darkness. They won't do shit and neither will their little twitter protests.

And at the end of the day they are too tired to drive somewhere else so they keep eating at Pizza Hut.

They should just stop going to Pizza Hut not because of politics, but because of the shitty quality of their food. It's the worst main pizza-chain in America by far.

No that's Papa Johns and I'm not even joking.

Also sorta related but Little Caesar's Extra-Most-Bestest Pizza is goddamn delicious.

The whole kneeling thing is such garbage anyway.

Like, really? Thats what you choose to get so upset over.

Grow. the fuck. up.

How about just sell your pizza and stay out of politics, especially social issues, generally just keep your yapper shut. We will be expecting a complete retraction of all remarks against Papa Johns before any more pizza is bought from you.

Oh look. A hanful of misinformed hicks on Facebook are upset that black people are tired of being killed by police.

This is noteworthy!

I make 33k for myself, so money wouldn't be an issue for me. Also, don't you work at some shitty retail or restaurant job and you are calling other people poor? lol

Might want to rethink your gimmick before looking dumb on here.

Top 3:
1. Dominoes
2. Pizza Hut
3. Little Caesar's

I stopped getting Papa John's because the one by me always forgets my Ranch dressing.

So this is going to end up a Chick Fil A kind of situation. Conservatives will start buying a lot of Papa John's and get fatter while liberals will buy a lot of Pizza Hut... and also get fatter...

It doesn't help that our Buffoon in Chief lashed out against the NFL as well.

Eating shitty pizza to stick it to liberals!

I don't get how anyone could eat Pizza Hut anyway. I had them deliver to me once, about halfway through my stomach just about bottomed out.
I made the mistake of trying it again (different restaurant), same crap happened.

TL;DR - Boycott Pizza Hut for wrecking your stomach, not because of their views about "honoring the flag" at a sporting event.

Nope. I'd rather eat Little Caesar's that was left in a gutter for 5 days than get Papa John's.

If you understand this, then there was nothing really that surprising about flame-retardant Italianate foodstuff impresario Papa John Schnatter blaming his companys declining profits on the NFLs inability to successfully quash its nascent protest movement. It was a little startling, of course, because of how ridiculous it was, but it was less startling than it would have been two years ago. That the statement happened to be obviously incorrect should have been taken as a given.

The speculation that Schnatter might have been put up to this gambit by Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones seems like a bit much at first, until you remember that the phrase a bit much no longer applies. So, sure: Schnatter, the boss of the NFLs Official Pizza Sponsor, took a shot at the leadership of the NFL commissioner at the behest of the vengeful Petro-Creature that owns the Dallas Cowboys, who is of course also Schnatters personal friend and an owner of at least 100 Papa Johns franchises, because the aforementioned Petro-Creature is upset about Goodells suspension of his star running back. Sure. Absolutely. Everything is this stupid, now.

This is all baffling and strange, but there are signs that people are at least getting used to it. If youre going to live in a world devoted increasingly to the opaque feuds of rich idiots, you might as well participate in those feuds yourself. And so every absurd thing that followed from this story on Thursday felt just right. Pizza Hut, which is not affiliated with the NFL, put its oar in to say that the NFLs protest movement had not impacted their bottom line at all. This set up a partisan binary that doubles as a crystalline metaphor for life in these times. You could eat an awful Papa Johns pizza to Trigger The Liberalsthey love the NFL now, and they get real upset when you eat pizza that tastes like a couch cushion soaked for 48 hours in margarine and brine:

Or you could Stand Up For Your Values by ordering from Pizza Hut and subjecting yourself to one of the few pizza experiences more reliably disappointing than Papa Johns. Its also possible that Little Caesars is the ethical choice in Appallingly Shitty Pizza. Even if youre a smug, apolitical shitposter, theres an option just for you.

Developing doesnt seem quite the right word for this story, but at this point we at least have some idea what to expect as it continues to devolve. The horizons of our moment have diminished and diminished until they reflect the claustrophobic world of the vapid rich dopes that are so pissily running it into the ground. Those of us down below can participate in all this by acting like thembuying stuff because we genuinely cant think of anything else to do, signaling furiously all the while at our hated counterparts on the other side of whatever this binary is, making a big deal out of something that is, in point of fact, meaningless.

There is something terribly sad about all this, of course. A world in which self-expression is limited to performative, politicized acts of consumptionand in which the things being consumed are, in form and content, not just unsatisfying but the product of an immense disdain for the very idea of your satisfactionis horrible to consider. Its not a future that serves anyone but those least deserving of that courtesy.

You really think I was going to sit there and screenshot all of it? Three is enough. Go on Pizza Hut Facebook page and find out for yourself.

I love FC and YT commentators. Every single one of them act like their opinion is some 5 star holy words. The entitlement of these idiots. Like, who the fuck are you guys? LMAO!!!!
