He falls more on the "but the food is delicious and my once or twice a year isn't adding money to their coffers for donation" side of things, which is fine, but I've actually made him go through drive through rather than going in before because I refuse to eat it.
I actually looked up what his charity, Winshape, gives to, and it includes the ministry in Uganda that supports killing gay people. A large part of Winshape's missions is traditional marriage, aka anti-gay marriage. I'm not okay with my money going to that even if a chicken sandwich is a go between.
