Look theres good enough reasons to hate Chick-Fil-A but you are not telling me your brain lives in a world where the teenagers who work there are all (or even a lot of them) isolated religious fundamentalist nuts who just got let off the cult compound to interact with society????
They hire normal people with interviews???? Teenagers go to fucking public school????
The leadership isnt even close to "westboro baptist church" levels of extreme????
Dude, I dated a fundamentalist once. This enraged her parents, who immediately forced her to quit her current job where we met, then they shipped her off to a church camp - by which point all forms of contact were supposed to already be cut off from me - then she was herded into joining a Bible college halfway across the country, where she also ended up literally working at a Chick-Fil-A to pay for that schooling before meeting and then soon marrying a guy who was a part of their system.
Yes, technically these businesses are open to the public. But that doesn't stop them from being led by christian nationalists, having biases in favor of others like themselves, creating environments more amenable to their own kind, and playing side-rolls in supporting the relative isolation of these networks.
The thing you're underestimating is how widespread and pervasive these groups are. Why do you think law enforcement organizations so readily support Trump and his policies? It's because these groups outright worship power and authority, and part of their grooming is to train every generation to actively seek out every position of power they can - including military and police.
I can believe you knew someone like that once. But no. Religious fundamentalists are not widespread and pervasive. They dont make up the majority of a fucking fast food chain to the point where you would say it's only "technically" open to the public. They dont make up much if any of the police force. What on earth led you to think that is the case. Did you live in a town with a population of 124 that was like that?
I could waste my time assembling links to articles about the rise of fundamentalism in the US, the infiltration of law enforcement by white supremacist groups, and the roots and connections between white supremacy and christianity; but given your determination to deny, and that you're already misrepresenting my own words, I am not going to bother.
