MODERATORS
Sure, but the vast majority of people realize what's going on if an IP starts rambling on about freedom, Jesus, or the thin blue line. You can make comments about those things being transparent pandering and the overwhelming majority of people will just believe you.
Meanwhile up until recently that wasn't really true with liberal pandering, and it still isn't in a lot of spaces.
One thing to note is that I disagree with you on using Chick-fil-A as an example. They are true believers when it comes to this stuff, and half their claim to fame is being good to such an extent that liberals eat there anyway.
The less subtle ones, yeah. There are more subtle ones, too.
Maybe we're just in different spaces then. There's a reason "bury your gays" is a trope, and it's not because the lgbt community ate it up. (For the unaware, it's similar to "the black guy always dies first" but for gay people.)
The only time I've heard of "bury your gays" was Voltron, which IMO was a good series that was murdered by a fandom that resented it for not being their personal self insert fan fiction.
I recommend you read up on it then. You might find it interesting.
