I am not in favor of Christian or religious bashing but it is often the far right christian business owners who want to shove their religion down your throat or use God to defend their bigotry or racism. I have not heard of a Jewish or Muslim business in the U.S. claim God told them Trump is a savior and truly won the election.... In the U.S. the conservative Christians just are quite famous for amazing hypocrisy. Quoting scriptures and Jesus while molesting children, divorcing or cheating on wives, engaging in hidden gay lifestyles, or telling them a politician is a symbol of God. (same as a radical musliim using the Koran to justify blowing up people around the world). But we are talking about the U.S. not the world. In the U.S. the small group of supposedly christians are truly not christians and using God to be outright hypocriticals. What high level CEO or Politician has used Judaism or Islam to do the same in the U.S. (Ilhan is getting up there but she still has no power). Sadly for many they use it to bash all christians which is wrong. Belief and faith are great and should never be criticized as your personal beliefs... organized religion is man-made mostly to control people... IMHO
I'm sure the My Pillow guy didn't cross the racism or bigotry bridge. Again, I didn't follow the story. Without you using Google, give me a few more examples of a business owner that fits the above description. I suppose an argument could be made for Chik-fil-A being homophobic, so that's one. Didn't the Supreme Court uphold a company's choice on providing employee's medical coverage for birth control? I didn't follow that so not 100% sure where that landed. And I don't see that as shoving something down someone's throat. Oh yeah, the cake lady that wouldn't do the ssc wedding, but again, they could have taken their business elsewhere instead of trying to make a point. I'm not gonna walk into a Jewish deli and demand a bacon, egg, and cheese bagel. Or a ham sandwich.
Has this dime a dozen grifter returned to his natural form and blowing dudes behind a Wendy's dumpster for 20's to sustain a crack habit yet?
David Hogg quits project to launch left-leaning competitor to Mike Lindell's MyPillow https://justthenews.com/nation/cult...eft-leaning-competitor-mike-lindells-mypillow
The kid's a victim of much more than what happened that terrible day. I guess no one can see this. Exploited right into the 27 club.
Well for My Pillow, he pushed his relgion into the politics discussion and went full batshit crazy over Trump... that immediately brings into question his fitness to keep running that company where he puts his religion/politics above the welfare of his employees (if he sinks the company they are all out of work). I did not meant to imply he pushed his religion on his customers. He let his religious fantacism basically overtake his business sense and now he is risking going into a deficit in his business. And some of the best bacon and egg bagel sandwiches I got were at delis! Most delis are not kosher at all. The Chik Fil A guy relied on his Christian faith to create a nice workplace and mission in his business. When he started going the homophobic route he had to know that would have a backlash. That raises the question as to why not keep your religion personal, when people of any faith mix business with religion it rarely turns out well. Organized religion is often about pushing your own ideals and looking down on others who dont follow. Not a good mix.
Right or left... all of these people think they are so important and we are just dying to hear their verbal diarrhea daily...
My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell said that Costco is going to stop carrying his products over his claim that there was widespread fraud during the 2020 election. “Costco basically did a slow cancellation, slower than the other stores,” Lindell told The New York Post. Lindell said in February that more than 20 retailers decided not to sell his products anymore and that he lost $65 million for his support of former President Trump's election claims. Lindell said Costco “said they were going to discontinue us but they were going to honor their contract, which I’m not sure what that means.” He believes Costco’s decision was a part of “cancel culture” that led other companies to drop him for his political beliefs, the New York Post reported. “Management has no comment at this time,” a Costco spokesperson told The Hill. There has been a petition with more than 108,000 signatures urging Costco, Walmart and Amazon to drop Lindell’s products. Lindell said the company will lose between $4 million and $10 million in annual sales and that 40 jobs have been affected by Costco’s move. Although some jobs were able to be moved to other parts of the company, some people had to be laid off. “My Pillow has 2500 employees. They all have families and stuff to support and, you know, shame on all of them, including Costco, that they did this to My Pillow. We've been with these companies for a long time,” Lindell told The Hill. “They are doing this because I’m speaking out about something I believe in,” he added. Lindell is being sued by Dominion Voting Systems for $1.3 billion for his false fraud claims that the use of Dominion voting machines cost Trump the election.
