    I love how people are blaming McDonald’s—and boycotting them—for the actions of a single employee. How does that make any sense?

      If McDonald’s pays their employees a decent wage the employee might not have been compelled to call the pigs.

      I think it’s great. Everyone with a reason to live longer should boycott McDonald’s.

      McDonalds could have made a public statement. They didn’t

            Riiight. 'Cause that’s something any corporation would say, ever.

                So, I guess boycott every corporation. 🤷🏼‍♂️

                Like, not even your favorite non-profit would say that. You’re literally expecting the impossible.

                  You expected a rational reason for irrational behaviour? It’s never going to make sense outside of “it’s just virtue signaling.”

                    I guess. Not really.

                    “Peak Design has not provided customer information to the police and would only do so under the order of a subpoena"

                    That’s not the same as saying “We are against our employees calling the police when they see a suspect in our store.” after an employee does that. That’s what I’m talking about.

                    On the other hand, very few corporations would volunteer data without a court order. That’s normal. We’re not talking about that. We’re talking about coming out and saying, “We don’t support our employees calling the police on a suspect.” That’s something very few—or no—corporations would do.

                    It’s two very different statements and situations.

      gestures to Tesla/Musk

      ‘it’s just the actions of one employee’

          I dunno, but he definitely doesn’t do any work
