“Chick-fil-A” has been on shaky ground since they cut off Christian charities in order to give more money to progressive groups promoting LGBTQ agenda feminism, and even abortion.
After what the CEO of “Chick-fil-A” said today, I have a feeling that this was probably the final nail in their coffin – at least as far as Christian conservatives go.
As you know, tensions have been running high since George Floyd died after a police officer kneeled on his neck. The entire country agreed that this was terrible, and we all pray that Mr. Floyd’s family receives justice.
However, as with everything the left touches, we’ve gone from common sense thinking to complete lunacy – and it’s all politically driven.
We’re talking about defunding police, kneeling and bowing before protesters, and demonizing every cop and white person in the country. This is just dividing people more, which is exactly what the Democrats and the media want.
Not to mention, our cities are burned to the ground.
And not helping matters are corporations who are jumping on the bandwagon and adding to the crazy mob frenzy.
That’s where “Chick-fil-A” comes in.
The CEO of the popular fast-food franchise is now calling on Christians to shine black people’s shoes. He thinks that’ss the best way to show a “sense of shame” for racism.
What an idiot.

White People Should Shine Blacks’ Shoes to Show ‘Sense of Shame,’ ‘Embarrassment’ for Racism pic.twitter.com/A2Utbc0a2t

This is nonsense.
I am not sure why so many people are trying to humiliate white people, but I don’t agree with humiliating anyone – no matter what color they are, or for any reason.
Here’s the bottom line – what has happened to black communities is awful.
Black folks were ostracized from society for 130 years – so of course, many folks are struggling – and anyone who says otherwise doesn’t understand what segregation has been like for black folks. Imagine if you were cut off from schools, banks, and other basic necessities of life – how do you think you’d fare? Over time this has a lasting impact on people and on communities and we as a country need to address this in a thoughtful and productive manner.
But me shining a black person’s shoes doesn’t change that or help them in the least. It’s insulting to even suggest that.

We need the Democrat politicians who are running these communities into the ground to get serious about helping these folks through education, trade programs, and community development.
All of this other stuff, like what the CEO of “Chick-fil-A” is suggesting is just more fluff that gets talked about for PR points, while everyone ignores the real solutions and black people continue to suffer.
They are Americans – we should all want every American to succeed. That is what “America First” is all about.
Furthermore, I will never eat at “Chick-fil-A” again because they’re not serious about helping black communities – they’re just interested in silly and pointless virtue signaling.
