Companies have to do the right thing -- not the right-wing thing -- if they want to stick around.

Chick-fil-A might have gotten a nice, one-day sales boost with "Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day," but tying a national brand to aging white bigots is not a winning strategy – and the numbers prove it. Executives. directors and managers of American corporations take note: If your company is playing footsie with right-wing ideologues it can harm your company and your career. People are seriously fed up with companies that support and fund these right wingers, and brand-equity tracking surveys prove it. Here are 6 examples of companies and organizations that have flushed their brands down the right-wing toilet.

That's right. The playing of footsie vith those Konzervatives isht verboten!

Penalties vill be impozed!

Dorkhota doesn't even pretend to value free speech EXCEPT when those employing it are in total agreement with it!

Is it free speech when the owner speaks for all his/her employees? Is the owner saying "I only want business from Conservatives?"

How dare those bigots have an opinion that is different than yours. Hell, the government needs to shut them down.

Which business owner said that? Which business owner claimed to speak for his entire workforce?

Are you making things up?

The owner gets to speak for the owner and for the company?

OUTWAGE!

You are truly a fucking dumbass, Dorkhota.

And the issue is not whether the owner speaking for the company is "free speech." That's not even a question. Of course it's free speech, you idiot.

The issue is that YOU and assholes like you would seek to DENY them their right to speech on the basis of the fact that YOU happen to disagree with it.

You are a complete hypocritical gasbag liberal idiot. You mouth platitudes concerning "free speech," but you don't even have the ability to grasp the fundamentals of what it entails.

Good point. No owner said any such thing, of course. And yes, Dorkhota DOES make shit up without regard to facts or honesty.

But what is truly revealing about its post is what it shows about assholes like Dorkhota-- which is the absolute disdain they have for free speech rights of those who happen to disagree with THEM.

Speech is OK only if it is leftist approved?

What choice do they have but to leave? WERE they forced to sign on to be employed? Really?

Liberty isn't your strong suit, and never will be. :eusa_hand:

You should e-mail that link to your lawyer/neighbor. He could monitor it, and let you know what you think. :thup:
