It's not just the owner's 'personal view.' It's the nearly $1.8 million in foundation donations.

Earlier this month, Twitters CEO came under fire for giving free advertising on his feed to Chick-fil-A apologizing a day later for talking up one of Americas most notoriously anti-LGBTQ companies and saying he forgot about their background.
Fox News screamed that this sparked another round of backlash, this time from more conservative social media users, who questioned what the CEO of Twitter meant by their background.' And Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), who in 2016 cited the terror attack at a gay Orlando nightclub as his reason to run for Senate again after vowing not to do so but has consistently opposed LGBTQ rights, went ballistic.
This lunacy has gone too far, he wrote, claiming that Twitters Jack Dorsey had been bullied into apologizing for patronizing a company whose owners hold a personal view taught by mainstream Christianity.
But while Rubios tweetstorm claims that the ongoing criticism and boycott by the twitter mob of a company owned by Christians is purely about the owners personal view, recently released tax documents demonstrate that the companys actions continue to be pro-discrimination.
