    Yes, for sure, I was just making a distinction between “this generation of kids are disrespectful” as a natural evolution of their generation vs learned behaviour

    Between nationalizing intel and potentially the Military Industrial Complex and this, who knew the far right would close the horse shoe with the far left.

    They believe it is a victory over "wokeness" and the libs.

    These hypocritical cultists get wound up over the stupidest dogwhistles. They have no clue how badly they've  been brainwashed and trained to react to anything and everything put out by the  rightwingosphere.

    So I think all of this was stupid.  Those people all upset should have eaten there more often and then Cracker Barrel wouldn't be in the position they were...

    And while this isn't really a victory over anything...it certainly will give pause to other companies on different initiatives, etc that could even remotely trigger the snowflakes....cause while they are wimps that are easily offended, they are also lemmings that keep up stupid fights.

    that's the problem. This wasn't even remotely a woke thing. This was only about updating the logo. Companies do this all the time. Just cuz it was a white guy being removed the nut job conservatives got all crazy about it. 

    I thought the right was all about not bowing to the mob? Oh, right, it was only when it was bowing to change something they didn't want changed.

    Nothing like getting a few games of Pac-Man in prior to eating pizza on a checkerboard tablecloth.

    So I heard a great discussion on NPR about this today and to further explain my "respect" explanation.

    As NPR talked about todays youth and their actions towards older people they called it a lack of kindness and etiquette. That is a better way to put it rather than respect.

    Good listen or you can read the transcript.
