40-day Target boycott starts today because of their backtrack of DEI principals.

Truthfully, this won’t have any effect. The vast population does not care and doesn’t do boycotts. You can only have effective boycotts by Conservatives because they’ll threaten violence and take aggressive action. Quiet little boycotts by 1% of the population won’t hurt them.
Well damn. I ended my Prime subscription and have been using Target for my random shit needs. I certainly don’t want to go back to Walmart.
I will never understand people’s obsession with what is essentially a shittier, more expensive walmart.
I just want to note: target is a pretty decent place to use the bathroom when out and about.
Give them your shit, not your money. Plus, they have to pay for the water you use.
Welp…
Haven’t set foot in a Target in at least 10 yrs… don’t guess I see any reason to anytime soon.
So, am I “boycotting” if I don’t shop there anyway…?? 🤷♂️ 🤔 😜
Posted this in the other thread; adding it here:
Joke’s on them; I already started. I’d rather spend more with a company that has a backbone and supports its employees and the community with more than just platitudes when it suits them financially.
And even more importantly, just bringing back the old policy isn’t enough to get me to return. I want consistent demonstration of their commitment first. For years.
But you know they save some money on DEI training, so win?
Target can go fuck themselves.
Lets not just talk boycotts, break the monopolies. Share info on where to buy local
I uh… I already started boycotting them a few weeks ago because I found out they donate red.
Figuring out where to get random goods while ditching Target, Walmart, AND Best Buy is going to force me to learn things for sure.
Have you tried looting abandoned government offices?
I can’t say I’ve bought anything there in the last five years. Low effort compliance here.
Mine started the moment I heard they cancelled their DEI initiatives, and it almost began when they caved to the bigots about Pride month 2 Junes ago.
Let’s make their stock trend look like Tesla’s now does!
The real MVP right here, fuck amp and fuck Google trying to control more of the web than they already do.
Fuck 40 day boycotts - find a different supplier. Canadian Tire offers pretty solid deals and you could probably find someone to ship shit to you.
After a month and a bit of changing your habits, a lot of folks will have found other decent options and never go back.
Even if most people return to their old habits, many will not.
40 days of change can have a significant impact on a company, even long after the boycott ends.
Although it’s a nice “kick when you are down” when Target Corp is in the red at - 13.5% this month.
