Target: Go woke and go broke

[Crakhobarbie]

Men in dresses?

Yes..... that was rather crass of me....... Trans women or Drag Queens, I believe are the proper terminologies.

 

[Deuce]

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

I call BS!!!!

Nobody cares about your opinion, least of all reality.

Stock values are down that much. Check it out.

Doesn’t matter. That’s not “losing” money. The stock market bounces wildly, overreacting to things all the time. It will bounce back when the bigots move on to their next target for terrorism.

, 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.

No... It was bigoted transphobic Jethro's that called for the boycott. It's sad that Target has to "bend over" and cave to these Jim Bobs because not only are there so many of them that they've tanked Target stock, they were also threatening violence on Target employees. Real Einsteins the lot of them.

Give me a break. Are you speaking for the LGBTQ+ community?

This reminds me of a comedy show where Dave Chappelle said about 99% of the people offended by his "black" jokes are white people who claim he is being racist against blacks.

So if trans people are not offended, why should you be?

 

[rahl]

You're arguing with yourself here

no, i'm pointing out that a man can never be a woman, unless you redefine the word to be completely meaningless.

 

[Crakhobarbie]

Give me a break.

No breaks for you.
Only transphobic bigots freak out over pride displays at Target. Only transphobic bigots get enraged over their beer brand acknowledging a trans influencer.
Like 12 year old bullies on a playground ( with the same emotional maturity) these mental midgets cannot emotionally tolerate a trans woman in their line of vision.
It's absurd.
The sooner y'all figure out that trans folk enjoy the same rights and freedoms by law that everyone else does, the sooner we can get past this blip of moronic Jethro inhumanity.

I am sorry they don't deserve specialty rights. That's insane.

What's "special" about a bathing suit that is labelled with a rainbow tag or that marks that it is binding?

You realize there are countless bathing suits on the market that are marketed as "tummy control" or "lifting" or "cinching" already, right? Did I miss the outrage over those?

There is an outrage because *gasp* products might be marketed toward trans individuals. Oh, the horror.

The only ones outraged are the bigots.

Target Loses $10 Billion In Value In Just Ten Days: Report

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.

Target’s Pride collection features ‘tuck-friendly’ swimsuits for adults, not kids

Target’s seasonal collection of clothes for Pride month collection has been the subject of several misleading videos in recent weeks, with social media users claiming the retailer is selling “tuck-friendly” bathing suits designed for kids or in kids’ sizes.

What "special" rights?
Do you flip out over gay pride displays "because" they are allowed to use women's bathrooms?
Or, do the rightwingers flip out because they find them "disgusting"?
Which is it?
Also, if we don't allow them to use women's bathrooms, will all y'all stop threatening target employees over pride month displays?

 

[bullseyelqcs]

no, i'm pointing out that a man can never be a woman, unless you redefine the word to be completely meaningless.

So yes, you are indeed arguing with yourself, since I already agreed with you insofar as man and woman have nothing to do with male and female in a biological sense.

I highly doubt that most of the outrage addicts know what "tuck-friendly" means.

What specialty rights are you claiming that LGBT people are seeking? This should be amusing.

"Woke" = insufficiently bigoted against whichever minority has provoked right wingnuts' ire at any particular moment.

nope, woke = whatever virtue signalling theme progressives want to try to shove down your throat this month...year... decade.

Trans can live their life however they want, live and let live... but the fact is they are a small percentage of the population. I don't want to see it EVERYWHERE and in EVERYTHING I do because companies want to cater to wokeism for an extra buck or two.

simply put.

thanks.

Why is it okay to flaunt white heterosexuals everywhere and in everything, then? It's not like they are the only people in existence, but I get the sense you wouldn't even question it if all programming and advertising suddenly went back to doing shit like that.

How close am I?

Just once explain how progressives are shoving anything down your throat because we defend LGBT people from harassment and discrimination by social conservatives. LGBT people can be anything that heterosexual/CIS and conservatives are and they dont need your permission or approval to be there as equals. if you have a problem with equal rights for others then stay home because they will not be forced to live as second class citizens because of conservative bigotry. All people have the very same rights, no matter if they are 200 million of 100 and there is nothing that you are going to do to change it.


I won't go into the obvious Freudian imagery that you have chosen to use

first you are going to have to show who the hell is "flaunting" white heterosexuals. It's not happening.

seeing as that is the norm however, by a large margin, I would expect MOST advertising would be for non trans people (as heterosexual does not even figure into it.. things a homosexual male would need tend to be along the same lines, because they are both Men and or women. )

Nobody is FLAUNTING homo or transsexuals, so Im glad you can recognize that flaunting and acknowledging something aren't one and the same.

advertising and movies aren't protecting shite. if you want to protect someone, stop bigots who will take nasty actions towards them (the small minority that they are) when they decide to do so, would be my advice.

and have honest conversations about the bathroom, sports and child transforming issues.

nah see you all have been doing this virtue signaling shite for too long, it has gotten old and now people are tired of it.

so, thus comes a boycott like target.

BLAME BUD: Target, Kohl’s suffer in latest boycotts over LGBTQ merch

In the wake of Bud Light’s nightmarish fiasco in the wake of transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney, other companies are feeling the pinch.

torontosun.com

Kohls saw a rising number of #BOYCOTTKHOLS hashtags online after conservative commentators posted about how it was selling a Pride onesie for 3-month-old kids.

“In case you need clothes for your Gay or Trans 3 month old, Kohl’s has you covered,” online commentator ALX wrote alongside a screenshot of the onesie. “Yes this is real.”

Benny Johnson also asked his 1.5 million followers: “Why is Kohl’s selling ‘Pride Merch’ for 3 month old babies?”

A widely shared video — which the maker said was initially removed for hate speech — also highlighted other Pride clothing for kids.

You know we have reached a weird point in this country when simply having to acknowledge different people causes this kind of response.

SMH.

SMH.

we reached a weird point a while ago, when progressives thought it was a good idea to start preaching morality to people they do not know, just like a religion.

except if you don't listen to them they call you names, get angry, riot and hurt people, due to their own self righteousness being offended.
