The internet is roasting Chick-fil-A for the start of Pride month as the company’s official Twitter account tries to avoid taking a stance.

The Chick-fil-A Twitter account recently tweeted what they thought was a safe tweet but the rest of Twitter wasn’t having the company’s tactical maneuver of avoiding taking a stance. Chick-fil-a’s original tweet was sterile and inoffensive in the worst way and served as fish chow for the circling sharks.

“You’re the best part of our day”

“u should make ur icon a rainbow chick symbol”

This comment was hidden. Although, this was most likely due to the inclusion of the term “Popeyes,” which is blocked in Chick-fil-A’s comment sections.

“Popeyes own you, hide this reply if you don’t care about black lives or LGBT lives”

“Happy pride month fuckers”

“Lmaooo you scared of chicken sandwiches???”

“Slightly more concerned with a large corporation donating millions of dollars to organizations that are fundamentally opposed to my existence”

“The audacity of posting this on the first day of pride month”

“Lol, so many hate comments just because the cishets don’t like the fact that we celebrate who we are. Ugh, i hate society… i wish we could just live in a world full of gays, lol, everything would be so much friendlier”

“We have a month to be seen all over the place because the rest of the year we don’t get anything! One month is just making up for the lack of visibility for 11 months. In a perfect world there would be no need for a pride month because we could show our pride all year!”

“Actually I do own the month of June. June is my intellectual property and by posting a tweet during June you owe me ten dollars.”

Corn also commented on this reply, which included the ‘homophobic dog’ meme.

“nah this is crazy LMFAOOOO”

“People are using the pic of the dog to get away with posting homophonic shit everywhere and if people get offended they pretend it’s just a joke and they’re just being ironic lol it’s so sad to see”

During 2021’s pride month, Burger King joined in on the discourse and took a shot at Chick-fil-A. A bit ironic if you remember Burger King’s tweet from March of 2021, only three months prior to their condemnation of Chick-fil-A, that stated, “women belong in the kitchen.”

“the #ChKing says LGBTQ+ rights! during #pride month (even on Sundays ) your chicken sandwich craving can do good! we are making a donation* to

for every Ch’King sold

“*6/3-6/30 with every Ch’King sold, BK will contribute 40₵ to the Human Rights Campaign (Max. donation $250k)”
