A brief note on Chick-Fil-A

Let me be clear:

In no way should Chick-Fil-A's apparent newfound sense of social justice deceive you.  When they say they're not going to give to anti-LGBT organizations any more, they simply mean they're going to do it in a way that's much more difficult to trace.  A leopard doesn't change its spots.

What you SHOULD get out of this news is that Chick-Fil-A is feeling the negative effect that their bigotry is having on their bottom line, and it's being felt to such an extent as to force their hand to try this absurd, patently transparent publicity stunt, which stands in diametric opposition to ALL of their former rhetoric, in a bid to undo the damage.  Don't think for a minute that they've changed their mind on the topic - the people running the company still think of the LGBT community as second class citizens, it's just that making money is more important to them than their theoretical Moral Imperative which they trumpeted so loudly in the past, and to which the teeming hordes of like-minded bigots flocked when it was made an Issue of the Day.  I wonder if those people are now going to stay away from Chick-Fil-A in protest, or will they continue to worship at the altar of hypocrisy?

Because it should be manifestly clear by now, Chick-Fil-A's One True God is the Dollar Almighty.
