Target has just added fuel to the fire over the backlash they are receiving for their June Pride Collection.
It was reported that on May 24, 2023 the company decided to hold an “emergency meeting” to deal with the backlash.
Clearly, the company was worried they would end up like Bud Light.
After the meeting it was learned that Target is shrinking the display, removing items, and moving it to the rear of the store.
However, what ticked everybody off (the right and the left) was their passive-aggressive statement regarding the change.
“Since introducing this year’s collection, we’ve experienced threats impacting our team members’ sense of safety and well-being while at work,” Target said in a statement Tuesday. ”Given these volatile circumstances, we are making adjustments to our plans, including removing items that have been at the center of the most significant confrontational behavior.”
Also notice no one is denying the company is working with a designer that promotes Satanism. https://t.co/PNt5epTxVj

CEO of Target Brian Cornell selling out the LGBTQ+ community to extremists is a real profile in courage.
This isn’t just a couple stores in the South. There is a systematic attack on the gay community happening across the country.
Wake up America.
This doesn’t stop here.… https://t.co/1vRgukaT0g

Chip and Joanna Gaines are devout Christians & parents of young children.
Their Magnolia line is also sold prominently & exclusively in every Target in America.
Can’t imagine they support the Groomer cult sexualizing kids next to their brand.

What has Americans fired up is the motive behind the products this year.
Stores like @Target have featured rainbow-themed products every June for years.
My favorite pet store has rainbow leashes and jackets for dogs.
No one cared.
The issue here is *ACTIVISM*
The products this year were hostile, aggressive and intentionally provocative.That’s why.

Target can go ahead and try to convince these folks to buy their Magnolia Collection, Christmas accessories, Pillow Fort decor and children’s back-to-school supplies.
Good luck with the “Satan Respects Pronouns” crowd. #boycottarget https://t.co/M3YSDWm1qC pic.twitter.com/XgJKW2hwLU
