I have never been a huge proponent of boycotting. But the news about Target has enlisted me into a full throated boycott of it.

It has been about 20 years since I last shopped in a Target. I can keep on not shopping there.

As if I need another reason to despise those scumbags who support, own, and run Target.

In America today, you can’t just be a big corporation, you either must be aligned with the elites/ruling party, or you are crushed.

“Diversity” means “kill Whitey and steal all his stuff”.

Then squat in squalor and misery wondering what the hell happened.

Boycotts? The entirety of the Republic is being destroyed.

Marxists bragged about doing this and their agenda was even entered into the Congressional Record in 1963. Do any of the following ring a bell? Pay close attention to #30.

15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.

17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda.

20. Infiltrate the press.

21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.

22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”

24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.

25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.

26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”

27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion.

28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”

29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”

Given that everything good is denounced by some woke loon as representing white supremacy or the patriarchy ... be it good grammar or even having trees in your yard ... then I I can say is: Hooray for white supremacy and the patriarchy!

When leftists get power within a company first they use the company’s resources to advance their evil agenda. Then they watch with glee as the company weakens, sheds jobs and is no longer able to provide goods or services further disrupting the culture. Finally like disease bearing locusts, they move on. Any company that hires a known Democrat ( who are woke, evil, and delusional) is taking poison.

I wouldn’t mind if all the big box stores shut down and we had mom and pop/local.

Paying out the nose for mostly imported junk— I’d rather pay out the nose for American made/grown.

I’m tired of the big business buying and deciding what’s right for this country.

“I have never been a huge proponent of boycotting.”

Yeah same here. I’m selective about it. Many corporations have caved to the extremists and their propaganda to various degrees. For many it is CYA.

However there are some like Target who are true believers. Thus Target is definitely on my list.

Perhaps the financial geniuses who run Target figure the bulk of their business revenues will come from their enlightened Wokester customers those Social Justice Warriors. Why those paragon’s of virtues should get their Target merch for only small donations to the ‘Cause’. Their martyred hero St. George of Floyd would be proud.

Target should move into 'communities' other stores are fleeing. That would snow their superiority... and their commitment to diversity.

Do it Target - and don't crap out by hiding your merchandise behind glass... Leave it out there for all to touch and see.

Show the rest of retail how it's done.

Boy is Target ever done. And so is Kohls. They sell infant clothing with Homo pride themes pasted on them.

Everything is politized now, EVERYTHING.

My shopping is political, my medical is political, my news is political, travel and vacations political, plane crash is political, crime is political, entertainment is EXTREMELY politized.

I. am. sick. of. it.

I have not been in a Target in probably 10 years. There is a Target “superstore” near me but there is nothing in it that I can’t find somewhere else.

Target partnered with GLSEN, a K-12 education group that focuses on getting districts to adopt policies that will keep parents in the dark about their child's in-school gender transition, providing sexually explicit books and integrating gender ideology at all levels of curricula in public schools.

Another Target Foundation grantee said parents must teach specifically "White children" about systemic racism and to "see color." It also claimed that capitalism maintained a role in perpetuating racism.

Even more than this in the full article.

Kind of ironic that all of these so-called "social justice" initiatives as well as these alternative lifestyles these woke virtue signalers are supporting are created and driven by corporate billionaires. They did not occur organically. Creating confusion and a victim mentality to control the masses and keep them beat down.
