Right-Wingers Mocked For Full-Blown Freakout Over 'Woke' Cracker Barrel



Conservatives are having a kitten over Cracker Barrel’s embrace of Pride Month and diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.

A while back their heads collectively exploded after hearing that Cracker Barrel had included a meatless sausage (gasp!) menu option. As if they were being force-fed by the Deep Vegan State. And now it seems that the sight of rainbow rockers have gotten them completely off THEIR rockers!

shopping places, places to eat and bathrooms. People seem to be moving to states where they align together politically.
If every restaurant goes "woke" then there would be an opportunity for a conservative to open a "non woke" restaurant 😞.
We don't shine well with all this anger and hatred for one another.
