    How long until they change their logo? It’s literally a target. The only real purpose of a target is to become effective at using a weapon. Weapons are bad, right?

    It's not all Target's fault. It has to do with their "woke score". Without a high "woke score" access to money, merchandise, etc gets cut off.

    This is a much bigger issue. Read the article.

    I keep trying to get folks to understand this, but the folks are so wrapped up in their belief that old school capitalism will defeat this eventually not realizing just what is going on somewhat behind the scenes…

    From the article, as simple as you can put it.

    “As a result, some American CEOs are more concerned about pleasing BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street Bank — who are among the top shareholders of most American publicly-traded corporations (including Nike, Anheuser-Busch and Kate Spade) — than they are about irritating conservatives, numerous sources told The Post.”

    Those three companies control TRILLIONS of dollars.

    If they sell their soul to stay in business, then it is their fault for compromising.
    You don't seem to understand.
    Go read the article.
    There are 3 major players (Blackrock, etc..) that own the majority shares of many of these companies.

    What they say goes. As someone already posted above this is all a distraction for a bigger underlying issue being worked at (the destruction on this control).

    The left is using open markets itself against capitalism…

    It just is not that way today. Wall Street is a proxy battle in the culture war waged by the left. The people ignorantly gave them a twenty year head start to build a foundation to launch the war from…

    The funny thing is (funny as in hahaha you dumbass), these woke corporations getting absolutely robbed blind by the very demographic they are sucking up to! Look at their tv commercials, Walgreens, CVS, target, Walmart, and they all have shut down stores due to being systemically ripped off. Lol! How stupid can you be?
    Plus having the screws put them internally as well with all the DEI bullsh*t. It will be proven that DEI will be detrimental to companies that incorporate it. Promoting people simply based on skin color, instead of who is actually qualified to do the job.

    If you dig deep enough, most places that we ALL purchase from, or the products we purchase, are all woke to some degree.
    Some of them, are smart enough to not announce it. So, unless you are 100% self-sustaining, you are going to support wokeness
    in some way.

    Privately owned companies don’t have this issue. Bring your company private and wave the 1 finger salute to Wall Street. or bend over and accept your fate. Target and the rest are in the position they are in based on their past choices. Time for them to own it.

    No one accepts responsibility, and no one is held accountable anymore.
    It's about pointing the finger, and not the bird finger.

    Private own companies will soon have to deal with it as their funding sources being to dry up.

    Research the topic in the article.
    They are going AFTER the banks to pressure them NOT to lend to those that are not woke.

    It is so hard to believe that every powerful company in the world is bowing to the demands of those with sexual deviancy. It has to be demonic. It just does not make sense that such a small group has this large of a voice. On the rational plane, they do not have the majority numbers, the economic strength, the intellectual superiority, or the solution to any of life's ills. They don't even have unity within their group.

    Here is one in Philly that's closing.




    And they all seem to be in a Democratic inner city area.
    I am trying to see if there might be a common theme but simple me can't seem to put my finger on it.

    This happened here too, after George Floyd. I worked AP at the store that got looted. That was one hell of a case to write up.

    I guess we are past time to press the big red button and get this over with. I know where I’m going. Don’t need another 25 + years to wait. At least this way ”they” don’t win

    IMO, they have 30% that are radicals, the middle 40% scared, and 30% strongly opposed...
