font-size: 12pt;\">Lately, I hear on a fairly regular basis the crucifixion of Chick-Fil-A.\u00a0 About how they hate gays, support anti-gay things, and other claims and allegations that martyr gay people.\u00a0 Now I apologize if I\u2019m a bit ambivalent to the news around the world, but the few things that I\u2019ve read about the matter have all stated that the\u00a0<em>Cathy family<\/em>, stated that they were \u201csupportive of the traditional family.\u201d\u00a0 Sure, that means that they don\u2019t approve of gay marriage, but it also means they don\u2019t support interracial marriages, or people getting divorces let alone re-marrying either.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Somewhere along the line, this whole war turned into Chick-Fil-A versus Gay People.\u00a0 It seems to me that that\u2019s not really what this is really about, yet somehow it\u2019s been steered to go in this direction.\u00a0 I don\u2019t think it\u2019s right that the Cathy family is against non-traditional families, but that\u2019s their opinions, but I also don\u2019t think it\u2019s right that gay people are the only ones martyred in this whole equation when there are several other factions that have just as much right to be appalled by the opinions of the Cathys.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\"><!--more--><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">I\u2019m technically a minority, being Korean and all, and I honestly don\u2019t think I\u2019ll end up with another Korean girl.\u00a0 Most Korean girls I meet are too bitchy, and\/or remind me of a family member.\u00a0 I do not want to marry someone who falls in either category.\u00a0 So that means my only hope for marriage lies in a non-traditional marriage, because I often dig girls that are not Asian.\u00a0 So technically, I have a claim to be dissatisfied with the opinions of the Cathy family.\u00a0 But I don\u2019t; because as much as I disagree with those opinions, and it makes me think the Cathys are ignorant, frankly, I don\u2019t think they have any power to actually make anything in this world happen to actually prevent me from pursuing a non-traditional marriage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">But the thing is, I am not taking out my disagreement on Chick-Fil-A.\u00a0 Because Chick-Fil-A is just a business, and they just make food.\u00a0 Food I like to indulge in from time to time, to be perfectly honest, because I fucking love their spicy chicken sandwiches.\u00a0 I don\u2019t care if people argue that Chick-Fil-A money is Cathy money, and Cathy money is being used to fund anti-non-traditional marriage beliefs, because again, I don\u2019t think that\u2019s actually doing anything, because those organizations are still run by corrupt, greedy people who are more likely to pocket said donations rather than use them for their futile, suppressive and ignorant cause.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Furthermore I do not hate Chick-Fil-A in the least bit, because frankly, Chick-Fil-A is a company that kept my ass employed and capable of paying bills and making a salary, and living my life.\u00a0 Frankly, that\u2019s a little more reason for me to be supportive of them, because they supported me when I needed it.\u00a0 I designed some of their menus, worked on their signage as well as nutritional collateral as well as facility literature.\u00a0 All, at a company that also employed several hostile bull-dykes, some obviously gay men, and other minorities (including a real actual Redcorn).\u00a0 Are these people going to quit that job, because they think they\u2019re martyrs?\u00a0 I\u2019m willing to bet that it\u2019s an astounding fuck no, because they really need to keep their jobs like everyone else who has a job currently, or maybe some of the reasons I\u2019ve listed above.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">I just think people need to get off Chick-Fil-A\u2019s nuts and stop pretending like they don\u2019t enjoy their food, shakes or other goods, because a bunch of other sheep think that the entire company is anti-gay, down to their perky white teenage cashiers who say \u201cmay I?\u201d and \u201cmy pleasure.\u201d\u00a0 Contrary to the popular belief, Chick-Fil-A peddles in the distribution of food, not unadulterated bigotry.\u00a0 It\u2019s just fucking food.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">I refuse to believe anyone who claims they won\u2019t ever eat their food ever again, because of the beliefs of the Cathy family; if you do, good for you, but if you find yourself in a moment of spiritual weakness and you want some spicy nuggets, waffle fries or a peach milkshake, I won\u2019t judge you for it.\u00a0 It\u2019s just food.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lately, I hear on a fairly regular basis the crucifixion of Chick-Fil-A.\u00a0 About how they hate gays, support anti-gay things, and other claims and allegations that martyr gay people.\u00a0 Now I apologize if I\u2019m a bit ambivalent to the news around the world, but the few things that I\u2019ve read about the matter have all &hellip;
