McDonald’s has reported its first decline in global sales since the Covid-19 pandemic, largely due to a boycott campaign initiated by Muslims and pro-Palestine campaigners amidst the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
The US fast food giant saw a one per cent drop in worldwide sales in the second quarter, attributing the decline to reduced demand in international markets, particularly in France, which has a significant Muslim population.
“France is one of the markets that has a higher Muslim population,” said CEO Chris Kempczinski on Monday. “The impact we’re seeing in France has been more significant because of that population.”
Also it costs too much for their shitass burgers.
