A right-wing extremist group is trying to get people to boycott McDonald’s because the burger chain was one of the sponsors of last year’s gay pride parade in San Francisco.
The group claims it’s not upset about McDonald’s serving, hiring, or employing gays, but because “the company is refusing to remain neutral in the culture wars.” The irony is that this group — which lives for publicity, so I won’t name them — doesn’t want McDonald’s to be neutral at all. They want the company to proactively support the group’s agenda, and if they don’t…..well, we’ll just see if Big Mac sales plummet in the coming months.
On the other hand, if they’re so concerned about the “homosexual agenda,” why aren’t they making a stink about Burger King’s Whopper?
