Imagine the CEO of a massive social media site being so thin-skinned that they individually lock one of millions of random accounts because they called them a wuss.

I am Canadian and usually grab Chik Fil A when I travel to the USA for business (We don't have it in Canada). I will be in the USA next week and I will want my usual Chik Fil A. Is that a problem?

Normally I would smart off something like "And that's why you're not Twitter's CEO", but apparently that goal is within your reach.

He should apologize for being homophobic


Eating at a restaurant that opposes homosexuals =/= being homophobic.

He has absolutely nothing to apologize for.


Ffs the restaurant doesn't oppose homosexuality, just one of the owners.

If your political views are so strong that you can't even fucking eat at their restaurant, you really need to step back and take a deep breath.

I don't disagree with the concept of "voting with your wallet".

I just don't see the point of wasting your own time calling someone a bigot online because they wanted to show they saved some money at a fast food restaurant.

It gives everybody a bad rep too. I have a few friends that have been in pride parades and none of them would approve of this shit, but I guarantee you people are going to associate pride month with bullshit SJW garbage when it technically isn't. I know a gay dude that seems to back Trump....

I respect Chick Fil A for standing up for the religious beliefs of the owner.

Every time I go there it is a positive experience. Over the top, actually. Above and beyond. The service there is so nice. The people who work there are taught to be overly nice. Its refreshing. Refreshing for a fast food experience. It leaves an impression with people.

Not to mention their chicken is amazing. Theyre one of the rare companies that have respect for you AND themselves anymore. I am impressed with them.

His response should have been "I ate a chicken sandwich and saved a few bucks. Get off my back."

What are they going to do? Not use Twitter? Outrage warriors are fucking addicted to publically announcing whatever they're pissed off about at any given moment and Twitter basically has a monopoly on that shit.
