Major US retailer Target is to remove LGQBT items from its stores

In order to provide a safe working environment fit its employees Target has decided to remove any items that promote the LGQBT community after staff encountered aggressive customers who hate the LGBQT community.

Trans leaders are invested heavily in Trans Products. They are forcing companies
to carry the products, or face protests, boycotts, and violence. This is extortion
pure and simple.

@DogMan Jesus Christ. I haven't seen so much shit flow from a single orifice since the last time I had whole milk.

@LordShadowfire When you see the abject brainwashing, driven by fear, it's just so hard to watch. It's so easy to wind these types of people up. No subtly required. Create a made up enemy and watch them go. The real drag, that used to bother me, is that they end up acting against their best interests and live a life of hate. They get nothing from it. I guess that's their penalty. Living a shitty life of fear and blame. What a waste.

@DogMan i agree

This isn’t a legitimate news story. It’s a meme that also says Target is removing “satanic” products.

Last year, MTG posted a photo of dildoes and bondage equipment in a Target, supposedly next to kid’s toys. The photo was suspected to have been staged as Target doesn’t even sell that stuff.

Target has been subjected to this crap for a while. A few years ago, some demonstrators posted videos of themselves marching through a Target to protest trans people being allowed to use their preferred restrooms. Target has tended to be more LGBT-friendly than their competitors, so they’ve drawn more anger from anti-LGBT bigots.

@justanothername Whatever. If you don't like Target, don't shop there.

@LeopoldBloom I’m not the one comparing.

@justanothername Comparing what?

@justanothername i take the stance of 'too each their own' whether it be a person who is Gay/Trans/or whatever, but when it gets promoted and specifically aimed at children, that's the main issue, part of that promotion is placing it within mainstream stores, thankfully, people are identifying that it's a drip drip effect within society and 'voting' with their feet/money

... the way it should be done is like what happened with Bud Light - boycott the product - no aggression involved ... i believe the freefall has cost them $7 BILLION so far ... updated now to [b]$15.7 BILLION[/b]{as of 2 days ago}

... Woke Culture is synonymous with Cancel Culture

@BigGuy2 It’s your product or service. A lot of companies cater for the “pink dollar” with special marketing campaigns. Gay couples are known to have far higher incomes than regular heterosexual couples. Vail ski resort caters for gay couples by having a Pink Week during the season which works out to be very profitable for the resort.

@justanothername

👍👍👍 good for them

Not quite it. As of now, they're only removing an LGBTQ brand called Abprallen by a designer that has come under some scrutiny for satanic images. I don't think Target will fold. I've done some work around their C-suite and they take it seriously. But I do think any piece of shit walking in to the store and throwing stuff around or harassing employees around needs to end in an arrest. We HAVE to stop letting the loudest, most-fear driven and insecure run the show.

That said, there are some items geared towards kids that I think are best left out of a major retailer. If parents want to offer alternative books and clothes to their kids, which they should be able to if they want, they can find those online. But there's little question that some are pushing the envelope to create a reality that doesn't really exist.

of course, for people like you, the presence of inverted pentacles in a ritual toga means nothing

justanothername · 51-55, M

@fakable Do you have proof that members of the KKK visited the Target store to harass customers?

template thinking prevents you from thinking more broadly, but a proper imposition of the solomon seal can help you realize that time is running out

The only time I'm ever going to worry about a LGQBT person, is if i see one with an assault rifle!

@DCarey The BBC reported aggressive behavior from customers at staff working at Target stores. I’m inclined to believe the BBC more than a far right blog site.

DCarey · 46-50, M

@justanothername What far-right blog site? You used the laughable BBC as your source. Stop bluffing and offer me incontrovertible proof that a real assault occurred at Target or even "aggressive behavior" as opposed to false conjecture by the BBC.

Lila15 · 22-25, F

@justanothername I'm not surprised. For some reason, anti-LGBT activists have a thing for Target. A few years ago, one group was demonstrating inside a store because they thought Target wasn't making sure that trans women weren't using the ladies' room.

smiler2012 · 56-60

{@justanothername] wrong wrong wrong wrong can understand why target did this in intrest of the safety of there staff . but why should the be intimidated by small minded hatred and cower down too these bigots

smileylovesgaming · 31-35, F

Makes u wonder who thought putting trans clothes and stuff in the store was a good idea for Target.

Gloomy · F

@smileylovesgaming Its rainbow capitalism and sells, many donate parts of the profit made off of those products to LGBTIQ causes and they shouldn't back down when faced with bigottry

Spoiledbrat · F

I guess it's their business.

MURICA..............WTF happened to us?

LordShadowfire · M

And the bigots win again.

justanothername · 51-55, M

@LordShadowfire Unfortunately.

Zonuss · 41-45, M

As it should. As I said before [b] indoctrination [/b] is dangerous.
This must stop now. 🛑

CorvusBlackthorne · M

@Zonuss I agree. We must stop indoctrinating people to believe that there is a trans agenda to take over the country. That is a dangerous and stupid belief that will result in mass murders.

BigGuy2 · 26-30, M

🤔 ... let's see:

Walmart closing down stores in places where customers would rather shoplift and loot the goods, rather than pay for the goods ... but of course, Walmart are completely racist aren't they ... 🙄🙄🙄

🤔 ... what else, oh yes:

@Zonuss ... oh right, so the information out there that they are loss making stores is fake is it ...

...you stick with your self-denial, there's a good Moron ... 🤪🤪🤪

{you'll be telling me next that the Russian Collusion was all TRUE} ... 🙄🙄🙄

Zonuss · 41-45, M

@BigGuy2 Yes. Because Walmart has more than enough money to pay for their stores to be open. If you don't know this by now then you are definitely [b]slow.[/b]

@MarmeeMarch Yeah really, because your entire wardrobe would change. You would have
to find silly rainbow prints, and feather boas, and assless chaps. You can't just get
that stuff at JC Penny's 😉
