Everyone forgets MLK was killed while taking part in a union strike.
- No but see he had a dream. Nothing else about him matters; people can only be one thing. Idiot.
- The white washing of MLK is crazy sometimes. They honestly be trying to say he was pro capitalism.

I have a dream! A dream of a future where chronic obesity, hypertension and diabetes know no color and we can all be equal under the crushing weight of healthcare debt!
- Unfortunately all three of these affect black people significantly more than white people
  
  Yep. And it's more about socioeconomic class than anything else. And that's more determined by generational wealth than anything else. And that's more influenced by land ownership than anything else. And that all goes back to who was allowed to own land hundreds of years ago.
- also union busting and nestle products!

White women with three different baby daddy's probably use this as a hunting ground... Catch and release of course. (I'm black, and Bruh a white single mom that fetishizes black men be scary aggressive.)

I’m white and I hate Starbucks and LOVE Popeyes chicken. I’m doing my part!
- have you ever thought that maybe its the blacks that like starbucks and the whites like popeyes? /j
  
  Well yeah, sure. But nobody should like Starbucks

We at that Popeyes We at that Starbucks
- We at that combination Popeyes and Starbucks!
  
  I'm at that Starfucks. I'm at that Cockeye's. I'm at the combination Starfucks and Cockeye's.

Is the joke "haha fried chicken"? Reminds me of that Australian KFC ad
- Not really. Popeyes specifically is more popular with black people, supposedly. Probably more of a location thing than anything else.
  Personally I think Bojangles is better but it's simple fact they're both better than the genocidal crackers at Chick-fil-A and Cane's.
  Is Cane's specifically linked to genocide? Idk but it feels like a safe assumption.
  
  i also hear that it's fried chicken as a whole that's more popular, however I work at a grocery store and I haven't seen that much of a ratio of black people buying fried chicken.
  I do only work at one store, and don't even work in the self checkout though, so my data is probably biased.
  I will say however, our store has little fried chicken bites about the size of a popped popcorn and it's mostly children who eat them.
  
  Popeyes specifically is more popular with black people...
  I don't know if this is true, but it should be more popular with everyone.
  I'm lucky enough to have all 3 nearby.
  Popeyes has the best fries, hands down. They should become the standard all other fries are measured against. Their chicken is the best IMHO, but not such a clear standout from Canes. Canes has the best dipping sauce, and that Texas toast is magical on its own. They make a decent cole-slaw too. IMHO their tenders are a little under-seasoned, but they're very consistent with breading and texture. Bojangles is last on my list. I had them once and was not impressed enough with any aspect of the meal to warrant a second trip.
  
  Isn't fried chicken just tasty?

I'm today years old....I just noticed that Popeye's is literally Pop Eyes strung together in a single word.
several characters regularly pop their eyes out during the cartoons.
chicken place.... Are they popping the chicken's eyes out?
- They’re doing a lot more than that to the chicken.
