For those of you offended by fast food, please avert your eyes. For the rest, here is a reason to support Burger King and pass the word. I know I WON'T be going to Wendy's, now that they have caved to Catholic demands.

ditto on both counts. It's also complicated by the fact that most large corporations will do SOMETHING we don't agree with, but may also champion causes (or at least support them) that we find important. For example, supporting lgbt inclusion but exploiting workers.
I had two men walk up to me and tell me I'm a sinner who's going to hell. I didn't collude with Russia, or have sweat shops in China, or even lie to the press on a regular basis. Are only the religious allowed to name call? Even if Samantha Bee is totally right (she is)? Just wondering.

I have never been a believer in the power of Boycotting, since it seems the publicity generated by publicly "taking a stand" is like free advertising for the targeted business. However, I still believe principles have a place, and certainly letting a company know you appreciate a positive stand they have taken on a social issue can at least be an encouragement to them. As for fast food, truly an elective, rather than essential, product. Regardless of any financial bottom line impact on them, I feel more genuine to my own values not to give particularly offensive businesses my money. I don't see Wendy's choice in this case as rising to that level, but to each their own. Personal judgment.
