It seems a FB friend that was one of my best friends irl about 15 years ago when I lived in another state has gone full SJW. She posted a rant the other day that anyone who eats at Chick-Fil-A is basically an evil bastard on par with Leatherface and an "LGBTQ+ enemy" because Chick-fil-A donates a percentage of their profits to conversion therapy. Another friend then asked her if we should all ditch our smartphones because they use lithium batteries, and by her logic owning one means you support child labor and other not so great issues surrounding said batteries. Her reply was that it was not at all similar and that nobody needs Chick-Fil-A's food, but "in today's world you can't survive without a smartphone" - she actually said that. I agree with the basic premise that not owning a smartphone makes a good many things harder than they need to be, but lack of smartphone is quite survivable. Do these people really think wild exaggerations like that are helping their case or winning anyone over to see their side? It seems to me like it would do the opposite, as they're making themselves look like raving lunatics whose views can be disregarded- and arguably should be, as they're spouting unhinged nonsense. Rather than convince me to boycott the place, she made me wish there was one anywhere near me.
