Target: Go woke and go broke

You say you don't care, yet here you are. Target, Walmart, InBev, these companies only fault was underestimating the number of bigoted Jethro's in America.
Yeah, right wingers are so hateful they literally attack stores for having the audacity to sell something to trans people, and they’re acting like Target is to blame here.

Because they’re ****ing fascists. This is how they think. “Comply or be destroyed.”
 
The cater to virtue signal to whom ever they want to. But at some point their shareholders are going to be pretty upset at loosing a billion dollars per day due their stupid decisions.



I don't shop at Walmart or Target, so don't care.
The stupid decision of having actual death threats by right wing terrorists? Target didn’t choose that. People like you did.

and lol the numbers you people make up get more and more hilarious. Nobody is losing a billion dollars a day.

Was there even one police report or otherwise official information of any "death threats" in the news?

I call BS!!!! Target claimed that at some stores some customers complained about the in your face transgender clothing displays, and a few employees in customer service claimed to be uncomfortable about that. So what! That is their job to hear complaints. Sorry if that violates their safe space. Maybe their company should think twice before delving into such a controversial subject before virtue signalling with their ad campaigns.

Stock values are down that much. Check it out.

LOL! Budweiser is having a hard time giving away Bud Light. Target stock values are off by billions, and last I heard, Walmart execs are in fear of what their next steps could be.

Go woke, go broke! Your side went too far, and normal consumers have had enough.

This isn't about bigotry, especially not against gays and lesbians. It is about the overt "T" and "Q" stuff, which goes far beyond gay inclusion in society. You went too far.

Do you honestly think that queer people or trans people give a shit about Bud Light, or the price of Target stock? We don't.

Are you saying that LGB people are acceptable to you but Trans and NB people are not and should be cancelled or killed?

Do I dare ask your opinion or racial integration or women's rights?

Hatred knows no bounds. There is no "too far." Eventually, after everyone else has been "eliminated," they'll be coming for you.

Well, I admit I have never understood the "B" thing, same as a couple of gay friends I have too on that subject. But I have NEVER in any way advocated for anyone to be "killed", so why would you even suggest that?

You see this is the problem with many progressives. I have consistently said, over, and over, and over again, that gay and lesbian people are well accepted today in our society. It took them years as we all know, there was a lot of bias against them. But similar with Blacks during and after the civil rights movement, good people were willing to accept gays and lesbians, and life went on. They proved themselves in every way.

The "T" and "Q" thing is being forced upon us in ways which go too far. People are being not asked to accept this transgender agenda; they are being FORCED to accept it, including indoctrination of their children. It goes too far, and many gays and lesbians feel this way as well.

So, tell me again, how is what I said advocating for people to be "killed"? If you want to be taken seriously, then stop with they silly histrionics already!



Do I dare ask your opinion or racial integration or women's rights?
LOL!

Is you bag of tricks really that lame? Is all you have left accusations of racism, advocating murder, and so forth. Just because I dare say that T,Q and all of the other letters and symbols are different in my opinion than gay and lesbian?

In your mind, anyone who complains about some dude dressed up in drag and being pushed into the faces of school kids, is the same as denying gay and lesbian people acceptance, or their lives. Why are your tactics that lame? Or do all gay and lesbian people actually think that drag queens and trans people represent who they are too? I am certain that is not the case.

What exactly do you find hard to understand about being bisexual?
 

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.
Target and Bud Light will survive this cultural antic.. American people and American business and industry will not have their minds put to sleep by right wing desire to make society a mass of sleep walking imbeciles.

Only a Fool would submit themselves to fight against having an awakened mind.

Yep. The companies will be fine.

I think the haters unintentionally discovered a great way to make money. Boycott, stock goes down, buy. Great plan. I'm ordering some shares right now.

The wealthy have always used various means to create "slaves", they've made the right wingers their slaves unto racism and slaves whose job is to fight against human individuality.

The type of slave they are made into has specific duties, and that is "to promote divisiveness' and "push chaos", and attack gender and diversity, because doing so is beneficial and profitable to the wealthy increasing their wealth. These types of people don't even realize they are made into slaves and they submit themselves unto it. They are gerrymandered into varying levels of containment zones, and told how to think and dictated to as to how to vote, by being fed drama antics of every sort and type, to ensure they can't think beyond being caught up in the drama antics.
They are taught and led to vote against themselves, thinking they will hurt gays, trans, women and minorities, because as the type of slave they are made into, comes with the impact of the Stockholm Syndrome, where they identify with their wealthy slave making, slave owners. They are the modern day version of a mix of Slave/Serfs, who worship their masters.

Agreed. I was just mentioning the great price of Target and InBev stocks right now.

I mean, if you could magically make stock prices go down so you could buy cheap, wouldn't you take advantage of it? I would.

What's next? Is there a stock you have your eyes on? Just spread the word that the company is woke, and bam! Boycott, stock price goes down. Then you buy, and six months from now when everything returns to normal, sell.

It's really genius.
 
And LGBTQ+ merchandise doesn't make these companies a personal profit?

There is definitely a place in society to sale LGBTQ+ merchandise, but it certainly does not belong in the mainstream.
And it being "mainstream" hurts you how? Do you feel compelled to buy anything you see? That is a different problem entirely.

Nothing is being force on you . Trans people exist and have always existed. You just didn't know about it.

If you claim that there is a transgender agenda then you tell me what it is because Ive never heard a thing about it, just as I've never heard about the supposed gay agenda that people have been freaking out for 40 years. My George Soros decoder ring doesnt know anything about these supposed radical agendas that Fox News viewers are screaming about.

How are kids being indoctrinated, about anything, ever? Are you still outraged about drag queens?

LGBT people are mainstream. You'll get over it.

I know of nobody who is criticizing gay PRIDE. It it is the over the top and campy--often disgusting trans and "queer" stuff which has gone too far and created a backlash.

I didn't vote for Trump BTW, nor would I ever vote for him. So again, you missed the mark when you directed this at me.

1) I am not anti gay
2) I am not a Trump fan

Any other questions?

You mean when men act "gay" and wear provocative women's clothing?
Does seeing a person dressed like that somehow threaten your masculinity?
Is that what's happening here? I mean please.... Explain the bigotry in a way that an old crack ho like me can understand, because from where I'm sitting, I don't see a logical, sensible reason why y'all are getting so angry over men in dresses.
Are you as upset with women in slacks?

Clothing has nothing to do with being a gay man. All of the gay men I have known and worked with dress like every other man.


Does seeing a person dressed like that somehow threaten your masculinity?
Not mine, why would it, has nothing to do with me. Some guy dressed up like drag queen clown.... well, something sure if off there. That or a need for attention. Likely to fill some giant hole inside that kind of guy. Normal gay men who are confident in themselves and who they are don't act like that.

Men and women are DIFFERENT. Maybe you'll never accept that, but it is a fact, and a biological certainty.
Sorry if that doesn't register with you. But it is the reality.


Are you as upset with women in slacks?
No. And that being said, there are times when slacks are not appropriate for certain occasions. Have you ever seen bridesmaids wearing slacks? Have you ever known a man to go to a job interview wearing a dress?

Bla, bla, bla.... I still don't see a logical, sensible reason why y'all are getting so angry over men in dresses.
You have failed to offer up any reason other than "bigots gotta hate".
That's so weak.

Don't they get operations as well which requires surgery?

Drag queens do not get operations they are men that just like dressing up as women. It's harmless fun. Some are not even gay.
 
Target has lost $10 billion in market capitalization in ten days, largely due to the backlash over prominent LGBTQ+ PRIDE displays including transgender-friendly clothing items for children.

According to a report published Sunday by The New York Post, Target’s stock price was hovering near $160.96 a share. However, viral videos showing “tuck-friendly” and “binding” bathing suits for trans-identifying kids — along with greeting cards celebrating queerness in a display clearly aimed at young children – led to calls for a boycott. Ten days later, the stock price had dropped to $138.93 per share.
A drop of $22 per share amounts to a 14% decrease in value – which translates to a $10 billion loss for the Minnesota-based company.
