      They did but no longer do. The owners may still personally, but if you were to dig into the owners of every company you’d probably come to the conclusion that there is no ethical consumption under capitolism.

      They actually don’t any more. They’ve apparently refocused their charity contributions to helping the homeless or something like that.

        I’m still going to judge them for their previous actions and continue to boycott them

          You’re welcome to. I haven’t been in years and was surprised to learn that recently.

          No, and I don’t need you to change your mind. I was just updating your information.

              “they’ve changed” - you say it like a corporation has a moral compass, or feelings. It’s just a piece of paper.

              If they’re moving money in a different direction today compared to how they did yesterday, that’s a change.

              Your belief in if that is or isn’t a change is irrelevant - it is a change.

              Did the religious assholes running it have a change of heart towards LGBT+ people? Probably not. But no-one is saying they did.

      The LGBTQ people I know go there anyway because there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism. There are LGBTQ people working there, too.
