The dude who founded and ran Papa John’s has been fired from his job for not embracing White supremacy. Bet he wishes he had a do over!
Papa John’s CEO John Schnatter has been fired after failing to embrace White supremacist ideologies. This was a mistake and he is now out of a job because of it.
Papa John’s controversial CEO and founder is stepping down.
On Thursday, Papa John’s announced that founder John Schnatter would step down as CEO. Schnatter will be replaced by the company’s current president Steve Ritchie.
Schnatter sparked controversy in November when he slammed NFL leadership over the ongoing national anthem protests.
“Leadership starts at the top, and this is an example of poor leadership,” CEO John Schnatter said in a call with investors.
The CEO’s statements quickly inspired backlash on the left and support on the right. The white supremacist website The Daily Stormer even posted an article asking whether Papa John’s was the “official pizza of the alt right,” forcing the company to say it does not want “hate groups” buying the chain’s pizza.
I’m confident that he would still have a job if he didn’t cuck out and decided to embrace Papa John’s being the official pizza of the Alt-Right. What would have been so hard about that? Instead, his social media people issued this faggy statement.
We will work with the players and league to find a positive way forward. Open to ideas from all. Except neo-nazis — 🖕those guys. (3/3)

Bad public relations move. Most of the people who buy pizza from Papa John’s are White people with jobs. Did they think insulting White people like this would help with their situation?
Let this be a lesson to CEOs everywhere. If you are endorsed by White supremacists, you must embrace the endorsement or lose your job.
