Costco - the only company to publicly come out in support of Diversity initiatives despite pressure from the GOP and they just raised the pay for their workers. Stop shopping at Target.

Same will happen to any retailer, firm or service that doesn't stick by long held US values.
Or am I missing a sarcastic joke?
As in “buying in bulk” for one person?

We can't let them use this as a reason not to stock Black or other minority businesses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bW0VrGCawSU
This administration will be their undoing.

Too bad for target, losing respect by many people including myself.
The dog is cute tho.
If you can't justify it though, its okay not to shop there.
It's possibly an extra trip, but I live in a small house by myself, and can find places to put bulk stuff. Like under tables or in extra cabinets that are mostly empty.
I pick up cleaning stuff protein drinks and coffee usually.
People respond to that! They love it and it energizes them to have a purpose!
All of it was stolen from us and it’s about time to take it back.
Effin' BULLIES and knuckle-draggers.
News like this is why I take that hour drive over the 30 min one.
But we do have a shitload of Wally Worlds..
For multiple reasons it stopped feeling right to shop there.
Call it intuition, or whatever, but my gut told me “NOPE!”
REWARD THE GOOD COMPANIES THAT STICK UP FOR YOU AND ME! MAKE IT WORTH THEIR TIME!
No publicly traded for-profit corporation gives a rat’s ass about our struggle.

Will support Costco from now on; sounds like they have great corporate ethics
I need talking points and practical suggestions for friends who just can't pull the plug.
Very new to Bluesky (like, yesterday), but found @boycottamazon.bsky.social, which I am following and enjoying.
Our current cat trio gets everything via Chewy.
And yeah, union busting too. He IS trash.
To the larger point, it's possible that the tariffs will induce pain, which in turn will induce thought. Not holding my breath, but possible.
My friends and I think we solved the issue of where to buy clothes and what brands.
We are in contact with a seamtress. I am not in need of anything right now. However I will need another dress shirt to add to the rotation soon.
And their gas is Top Tier.
Excellent return policies and friendly, well-paid employees.
Hope it was worth it https://target.com.
Also MAGAs: Nobody working in fast food or retail should make that much!!
I even returned 2 pairs of shoes I had bought for my daughter that were still in boxes with a no-so lovely note.
Awesome. Thank you Costco.
