I’ll never forgive Target for buying out all the Zellers stores in Canada, closing all the ones in the smaller centres that people relied on, then going bankrupt and disappearing back to the States, leaving a string of empty, derelict buildings behind them. Phooey.
I hadn’t shopped at Target for a few years and then I started to did back in last year. Then they decided to enable fascism and I skipped away from them with nothing but joy in my heart. They will never get a dollar from me again.
Its an interesting perspective to bend to MAGGAT influence, since most of MAGGATs don't have any money. The middle class woke is far better educated and have made a difference to Target's profit. Too bad, so sad for Target.
The only thing that will get me back into Target is if they put massive Pride displays at the front of their store, including the children's tuck swimsuits they allegedly sold before.
Yeah, no. Leadership has not changed. The douchebro still has his job. If he's replaced by a woman of color and also, they make an ongoing commitment to DEI, much greater than what it used to be, I'm happy to support local businesses and Costco.
First, they folded over pride... then they said black entrepreneurs were no longer welcome discounted the products and then charged the small business owners for the discounted items and you know what, fuck target. Never shopping there again... they could have stood up to a bully, but they refused
I won’t ever be shopping there again. I’ve gone this long without stepping foot into a target since they got rid of dei and I can go the rest of my life without them. I’ve found way to order direct from the vendors on the things I got there or from other places.
A few Junes ago, in my area Target was boycotted by R-Magas &sales dropped for "promoting alternate lifestyles" by having merchandise w/ rainbows& othe "gay stuff" on display ("oh horrors, rainbows on toddler tshirts"). Suppose since the Rbts' SCt deemed corps persons, it's part of the deal..but...

They ALSO started listing the existing Veterans sub-program first wherever the subject comes up, giving them an easy rebuttal to criticism:
"What? Do you hate veterans or something?!?"
It works. 😂
At this moment, pragmatism outweighs everything else.
