Target: Go woke and go broke

[bullseyelqcs]

no

this doesn't make any sense.

losing an arm wrestling match doesn't change the fact that she is a woman. I know you think it's cute and somehow an insult though. It's quite amusing.

Perhaps. So you agree then, that a woman beating a man at arm wrestling, doesn't make her a man?

It doesn't make her MALE. To some watching, it may indeed make her come off as more manly than the male she beats.

Target becomes latest company to suffer backlash for LGBTQ+ support, pulls some Pride month clothing

Target is removing certain items from its stores and making other changes to its LGBTQ+ merchandise nationwide ahead of Pride month, after an intense backlash from some customers including violent confrontations with its workers. Target declined to confirm which items it was removing but among...

Target is becoming the next Bud Light. I am going to short Target the stock. Again, go woke up and go broke down.

Americans will not tolerate the extreme political messages these large corporations are trying to make.

This is a warning shot to all retail stores, if you go woke, you will suffer. Workers will be confronted, customers will be angry and cause backlash.

CEOs and executives need to learn or they will suffer the consequences.

The American right is becoming more and more like the Putin regime which also persecutes the LGBTQ community.

Here you go. Here's some gear for White Heterosexual Pride Night.

I especially like that black Klan gear for its sleek SS look and obvious irony.

MAGA.

I never understand Conservatives in this regard…
Isn’t this the “free market” at work in real time?
Soooo… you don’t want dreaded ‘govt regulation’ for businesses- but, at the same time- when those businesses *choose* to engage in society, and clean up after themselves- they’re “woke”?
Please explain

More like a middle eastern theocracy like the Taliban.

I hate that you put me in the position to have to defend conservatives, but you have done just that.

By conflating two different things, you have nullified any point you were trying to make. What happened at the Target had nothing to do with government intervention or regulation. They arent asking the government to stop Target from selling or promoting these products.

The better argument for you to have made would be the hypocrisy of crying about cancel culture while engaging in it at every turn.

"Target never should have submitted to Republicans. Republicans are always worried about how other people live their life and who they sleep with. It's like some sick obsession of madness.

But the given name in my example was Jacob. Try keeping up.

You said mike, and michael.

It's unsurprising that you took the cheese and then tried to claim victory with your tail still in the trap.

you're confused again.

or a man

yet she remains female, and a woman.

Everything you say is meaningless by your own definitions.

I'll ask here, is economics a "science"?

You should probably read your own articles. Target is not losing customers due to its support for the Gay community. It's just a handful of right-wing extremist shitbags threatening violence against Target employees. That's not the free market, that's just terrorism. The overwhelming majority of Target's customer base has no issue with the LGBTQ community.

Stores like Target care about one demographic, the 18-34-year-old demographic, and that demographic overwhelmingly supports the Gay community, and always will. It is the companies caving to Right-Wing extremists who will not survive the future.

Target lost 9 billion in valuation this week, do you think they care?

 

[bullseyelqcs]

You said mike, and michael.

Go back and read. Then come back and apologize. The name I gave was Jacob Michael and they wanted to go by Mike.

It's not me who's confused.

Your answer makes me believe you are intentionally acting like you are missing the point.

Britney Griner is repeatedly called a man even though she is ABSOLUTELY a biological female. There's a reason for that, and it has absolutely nothing to do with her biological sex. It has to do with the ****ed up perception some people have regarding gender. It's because gender is not nearly as defined as sex.

Target lost 9 billion in valuation this week, do you think they care?

lol... I love these absurd context-devoid claims about stocks.

To start with, Target's market cap today is around $65 billion. At the end of trading on Friday, it was $70 billion. Where did that extra $4 billion go?!?
To continue, stocks constantly go up and down. E.g. today it went down and... went right back up. It opened at $141.08 and closed at $140.75. Woah huge loss

Like most companies, Target has seen significant drops in stock price in the past few years; e.g. it peaked around $250 back in November 2021. Whatever is impacting its price, it isn't a one-day snarl over moving LGBT displays to the back.

And I'd say that yes, Target cares about the difference between "customer boycotts" and "customers threatening their staff."

It's pretty clear that the controversy is causing the stock drop

[Crakhobarbie]

Should Target start selling KKK merchandise?

Does target support KKK members? If so, then they should. This is America. Trans folk have exactly the same rights as you, by law.

don't understand the market

Yes you have described yourself perfectly

10 bucks says we won't see many (if any) republicans post in the thread i just started about a cop who raped his 10yo foster daughter.

You know what I have noticed? You tend to complain about the lack of participation in your various boring threads.

We had no problems with this until the Trump years.

Boring threads to this poster is real stories about real men raping little kids.


Everyone remember that.

 

[TobyOne]

Which is why there's a woke backlash. Wokeism is the pseudo intellectual veil for hatred and racism. For the Wokeist, hatred is good as long as its the right kind of hate.
