“I’m all for treating people with respect, but when you start pushing political agendas through sandwiches, that’s where I draw the line,” Voight continued. “A sandwich should be a sandwich. It shouldn’t come with a side of virtue-signaling. This woke nonsense has no place in the food business.”
Others, however, found the whole situation to be absurd. “This is what we’ve come to? People arguing about sandwiches and politics? Give me a break,” one commenter quipped. “I just want to enjoy a Primanti Bros. sandwich without thinking about Jon Voight’s feelings.”
A faction of Pittsburgh locals also voiced their dismay, particularly those who saw Voight and Vance’s criticism as an overreaction. “It’s a sandwich, man. Calm down,” one resident told reporters. “I don’t care who eats at Primanti Bros. as long as I get my sandwich with extra fries.”
Despite the political rhetoric surrounding the restaurant, many Pittsburghers remained loyal to Primanti Bros., vowing to continue enjoying the sandwiches that have become synonymous with Steel City culture. However, the controversy has also prompted calls for boycotts from some conservative corners, with fans of Voight and Vance declaring that they would take their business elsewhere.
While it remains to be seen how this controversy will affect Primanti Bros. in the long term, it has certainly placed the sandwich chain in the middle of a culture war. As businesses across the country navigate the fraught political landscape, the question of whether to embrace or reject wokeness continues to loom large.
For Jon Voight, the answer is clear. “I won’t compromise my values for a sandwich, no matter how good it tastes,” he said. “Primanti Bros. has made their choice, and I’ve made mine. There are plenty of other places to eat that haven’t gone woke.”
J.D. Vance, meanwhile, has vowed to keep fighting against what he calls “woke corporate America” and promised to continue supporting businesses that align with his values. “This isn’t just about sandwiches,” Vance said. “It’s about the future of our country. We need to stand up to these woke corporations and make our voices heard.”
As for Primanti Bros., the restaurant has made it clear that it will continue to focus on serving its customers, fries and all, regardless of the political storm brewing around it. Whether the sandwich chain will suffer financially or emerge unscathed remains to be seen.
At the heart of this controversy lies a deeper question: Can businesses truly remain neutral in an era where every decision is viewed through a political lens? For Jon Voight and J.D. Vance, the answer is no. But for Primanti Bros., the mission remains simple: serve great sandwiches to the people of Pittsburgh, wokeness or not.
NOTE: This is SATIRE, it’s not True.
