I keep seeing posts/stories about people being outraged at Cracker Barrel, but nothing is at all clear [View all]

it seems CB updated their logo and it has MAGA all up in arms -- why I'm still trying to determine.

They are calling CB leadership traitors, etc all because of a logo change?

Many companies change their logos as a way of keeping up with the times.

Or maybe I'm applying logic to a non logical situation?
