Return of the Feckless Chick-Fil-A-Phobes
19th April 2018
Michelle Malkin brings the heat.
Ground zero for the latest outbreak? The headquarters of The New Yorker magazine. This week’s issue online features the bigoted lament of writer Daniel Piepenbring, who decries the fast-food chain’s “creepy infiltration” of the Big Apple and warns against the company’s “pervasive Christian traditionalism.” Chick-fil-A opened its fourth location in the city last month. The largest franchise in the country, it seats 140, employs 150, and along with the other NYC locations, donates an estimated 17,000 pounds of food to a local pantry for the homeless and hungry. The company is reportedly on track to become the third-largest fast-food chain in the world.
What are the Chick-fil-A-phobes so afraid of?
A private business succeeding in the marketplace based on its merits, without coercion or cronyism.
An enterprise that values hard work, honesty and integrity.
A family-owned American Dream come true that creates jobs, pays taxes, satisfies customers of all backgrounds and gives back to the community.
Horror of horrors, what menaces these sandwich-sellers of faith be!
The witch-hunt for Heretics and Sinners proceeds apace. The problem is that the Left has Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals and the Right has no equivalent; it’s always easier to destroy than to build.

Bitch all they want – every Chick-fil-A around here has a line around the block every lunch and dinner time. The food is good and the service is excellent. They seem to treat employees well and have a reputation for feeding any “homeless” that come in and ask. When there was the big stink about the owners being anti-gay, the gay employees refused to get involved in the protests because they weren’t being treated badly at all.
It just drives the Lefties crazy that their hate alone isn’t enough to cause institutions to crumble.
