Conservative activist and filmmaker Robby Starbuck held nothing back in a brutal takedown of the popular restaurant chain Cracker Barrel late Friday night.
Starbuck released a must-see video that exposed how the once-beloved restaurant has gone woke, abandoned their values and betrayed their “heartland of America” customer base.
The company has been met with massive backlash recently after they have begun redecorating their restaurants, ditching the “old country store” American nostalgia feel for a more modern look, and changing their longtime logo to eliminate the elderly white man sitting beside a barrel.
But Starbuck has revealed that hidden beneath all that, changes have been going on inside the company for several years, as it is now “infested with left-wing activists who are more interested in safe spaces, pronouns and virtue signaling than they are in their customers.”
The video was first posted on X, and now has over 2.1 million views. Starbuck announced Saturday that he has now uploaded it to other platforms, and wants it shared far and wide.
“We posted this exclusively on X for the first 12 hours but many of you asked to be able to share it on other platforms so now it’s on FB, IG, YouTube and TikTok too. Just go to @RobbyStarbuck on those platforms to share or you can download it and upload it to any of your pages,” he announced Saturday.
In his first post, Starbuck wrote:
Cracker Barrel has been one of the most loved brands in America for decades… That changed this week with a logo redesign that infuriated the public but… the problem goes MUCH deeper than a logo.
@CrackerBarrel has gone fully woke and now it’s time to expose everything.
Here’s the highlights you need to know:
• Cracker Barrel has funded “all ages” Pride events for many years like Nashville Pride and Third River City Pride.
• Cracker Barrel worked with the far left HRC organization and reportedly sponsored HRC events for 10 years. They even brought an HRC representative to their Tennessee HQ to do a pronoun and transgenderism training. We’ve included photos of this in the video. As a reminder, the HRC supports child sex changes and men in women’s bathrooms. They work to normalize/legalize both things and they work to force transgenderism in the workplace.
• Cracker Barrel worked with a group called Conexión Américas as part of their DEI efforts. This group helps illegal immigrants, providing them lawyers and the executive director opposes President Trump’s deportations.
• Cracker Barrel sponsored the Out & Equal LGBTQ Workplace Advocate Conference and presented a workshop on how Cracker Barrel has made progress supporting LGBTQ+ causes. This group works to push sexual topics and pronouns into the workplace.
• Cracker Barrel was awarded Out & Equal’s 2018 top LGBT ERG group award and they won the Nashville LGBT Chamber of Commerce “Corporate Diversity” award.
• CB created a special “diverse” suppliers program focused on increasing “diversity” among suppliers. To most people this just reads as: less white people.
• Had Coming out day pamphlets passed out at their TN headquarters as well as pamphlets about supporting “LGBTQ YOUTH” and creating “Safe Zones” at work, free from “heterosexist or cwordgendered comments and actions” (X will downrank my post if I spell that word out). If you said anything activists would describe as “heterosexist” then you were told that you’d be “educated” by their LGBT office group.
• CB has had multiple DEI focused employees and had CB employees attend DEI roundtables.
• CB had pride flags at their corporate office.
• CB promoted the Stonewall riot to employees and on their website despite the fact that the Stonewall Inn was reportedly owned by the mafia, rife with drug dealing and also the site of teen “prostitution” for older men.
• Had a Cracker Barrel employee on the HRC’s business advisory council.
• Has ERG groups in the office that are divided by race and sexual preferences.
• A total commitment to DEI policies.
• CB has had MANY activist employees driving this far left policy agenda, including a head of training + management, top execs and a board of directors member who owns a DEI consulting firm.
To put it mildly, Cracker Barrel has forgotten who their core customers are. It’s time for us to remind them.
They depend on YOU to keep their business afloat so now YOU have to ask yourself: Do you want to fund people or companies that hate your values?
It’s time to remind them who their customers are.

Remember to ALWAYS BE KIND. Many in customer service agree with you. Being rude hurts our cause!
I give everyone permission to use my video and what we found to make your own content. You can rip this, clip this, make your own content, etc. You can even monetize my video. Just get this information to everyone you know. We have to take our power back as consumers. Every company needs to get the message that THIS ENDS NOW.

In a Facebook post on Saturday, DMLNewsApp and TeamDML.com founder Dennis Michael Lynch wrote:
Cracker Barrel’s radical CEO Julie Felss Masino’s reportedly wanted to make the restaurant chain less white, and thus the removal of the beloved logo bearing a white man. Her idiotic decision may have been celebrated by the far leftists who hate America, but it resulted in a $250 million decline in the company’s stock value. It is down nearly 35% since she took the helm.
She, and the moron board members who hired her, should all be removed; then the original logo should be brought back, and a new board and CEO consisting of conservatives who look like the guy in the logo should be hired. The stock would double!
