Lol @ those whose consumption decisions are predicated on a company's perceived social stance.

How may who oppose the logo change do so claiming woke? Claiming the company's support of gay rights is woke?

Looking at the sponsors of the upcoming local pride event, Anthem BC/BS, US Bank and Bank of America are main donors. How many who oppose CB's logo change on the basis of woke will stop doing business with the healthcare provider and banks? Surely many CB customers have Anthem as a healthcare provider and do business with one of the banks. Are they as upset over those companies supporting the Northern Nevada Pride event as they are over CB supporting pride events outside their areas?

So it is just the idea of change. No political or social grievance as with Bud Light.

I'm not sure. They took the old white guy off the logo. So white racist magidiots are all upset I believe. Or maybe they just need to complain about something even though most don't even go to the restaurant. They think they owned the libs when most if not all libs could care less. Like bud light, who really gives a shit except racist, bigoted scumbags.
 
Trump saved Cracker Barrell. Now he's going to want a piece of it.

It is a characteristic of the times . . . expressed by all sides confronting a controversy. Here's one among several explanations.

The pleasure of strong negative judgment becomes so enjoyable we seek opportunities to trigger it; we ferret out others’ crimes of omission or commission, so that someone, for example, compares a political movement to Nazism, and then in return others are outraged by the comparison. We pick apart behavior that is something like sexual assault and express outrage accordingly. We are outraged by bias and see bias everywhere. -- The Dangerous Pleasures of Outrage, Terri Apter Ph.D, Psychology Today, 3/22/2018

Yeah I'm pissed he didn't end the wars or lower energy or food costs yet has time to whine about the cracker barrel logo and golf instead as he strips away our democracy but that's beyond the scope of this thread.

It's very easy to compare a political movement to Nazism when its leader reposts images of Nazi concentration camp triangles. And when a top henchman gives a Nazi salute. On the other hand, claiming a logo change indicates woke isn't so clear. Claiming woke isn't clear. What the hell is woke, how does the new logo express this, and why does it matter?

I know why Nazi salutes matter as well as inverted triangles. The CB saga is a bit of a mystery.

They shoulda replaced the old cracker barrel guy with an old guy typing and yelling at his computer screen and renamed the store Crazy Uncle instead.

Well, Biden had time to call me garbage. Besides, only Liberals want to end our democracy. They attempt to do it every single day.
 
Can anyone tell me why the OP blatantly lied about the logo change being “woke”?
 
This thread seems so MAGA perfect on the day of a school shooting.

Cool. Continue lying about “wokeness”.

This is not the first time you called me a liar is it? The last time I proved you wrong and you couldn't even bring yourself to apologize.
