The unconfirmed allegation is raising concerns that the coffee chain is the latest corporation to cave to far-right attacks on LGBTQ people.

    Just because it’s true in your little echo chamber doesn’t mean it’s true for “the vast majority”

        Just accept that some spaces aren’t welcoming of your ideology and move on.

        Not all political spheres need to be “neutral and balanced” by accepting lies and bullshit spewing from useful idiots.

        Uh, Politics downvotes. Conservative bans.

        You think that because it appears as if there is a 50% split ideologically in the US that somehow you’re in the majority. Not only are you thoroughly not, but the 50% split is an allusion created by voter suppression and gerrymandering. And this is not opinion.

                    How odd to be so vocal about being right and then refuse to elaborate when people are earnestly and respectfully asking for your opinion. Are you secretly ashamed to preach what you actually believe?

                Nope. I want you to answer it. I’ll read it. I’ll refute it.

                I won’t convince you that your God isn’t real. Your heels are dug in and I respect your convictions.

                But there is obvious room for you to learn and grow because no one cares that you’re gay for Jesus. We care that you are weaponized stupidity holding our country and the world back with your regressive world view.

            You regularly ‘communicate’ with a man that has been dead for over 2000 years by talking to your ceiling, because you believe that (despite being dead) he has magical powers.

            And then go around calling everyone else “crazy”.

                And dead people all over Jerusalem ‘rose from their graves and wandered around’… yeah… sure they did bud. Whatever you say.

                These are Stories. Not facts, stories. Stories written for children, about magical wizards.

                You are the literal equivalent of the kid that -actually- believes in Santa Claus and can’t stop telling everyone around him that he’s the smart one who is going to get all the presents.

                    Dude, in the comment just prior to that one, you just used the bible as a source of evidence to prove to us all that the bible is true. I have absolutely no doubts about who you think you are.

                    Since you seem to love proselytising to others I’m going to reverse UNO you dude.

                    Try reading: ‘The Demon Haunted World’ by Carl Sagan, or ‘The God Delusion’ by Richard Dawkins.

                    Surely someone so confident in your faith as you can stand up to one little book can’t you? What do you have to lose but the ability to learn and grow?

            “As for your assertion that I’m condescending, I’m sorry for whatever I said that came across that way. I am praying for you and everyone else in this thread, that we may all come to be one in Christ.”

            Traditional values like what? Be specific. I bet many of us would disagree that those values are worth preserving.

            Can you cite any examples of physical violence committed by “the left” and what specific political objective those incidents achieved?

            It’s ironic that you act like the other side is unreasonable when you start with the assumption that “the left” is inherently unreasonable and impossible to have a dialogue with. You aren’t leaving any room for conversation. I am willing to listen to your arguments, but we also need to be able to “agree to disagree” without dehumanizing each other.

        But as you grow up, and become more conservative (like we all do with life experience)…

        I don’t accept the premise that everyone gets more conservative as they get older. That does not stand up to study as far as I am aware. Here are some example sources to back up this claim: 1 2.

        …you’ll learn that almost every adult is essentially conservative…

        By what measure or definition are you using the word “conservative” here? What is the cutoff for an “adult”, is that the same as being able to vote or are you drawing an arbitrary line at an older age? Surely you are not suggesting that “almost every adult” is a GOP voter, because even Trump would not be so brazen as to pretend there are no Democrats at all!

        …and striving to become more mature (ie more conservative and traditional) as we age.

        I completely reject the equation of maturity with “conservative and traditional”. This is just nonsense that reveals the magnitude of your bias. I am not going to argue that almost every adult is naturally more liberal or progressive, that is just absurd and has no basis at all in reality or facts.
