They need to go out of business. Period. Making nice and firing the leadership does not send the same message as having to shut your doors.

What you say at least this part is 100% true:
“Bad business practices don’t seem to hurt high level executives. Even when they run a business into the ground some of then get multi-million dollar bonuses.

The C-Level types, along with their Board of Directors and high level Exec’s *never* take the hit when bad decisions are made and the consequences are felt. They always have their exit clauses in their contracts which give them big buyouts if their contract is terminated early.

Those getting hurt by the Target boycott are the front line employees and Target’s suppliers.

While I personally don’t frequent Target at all, it appears to me that the wrong folks may be getting hurt in all this.”

However I will add that the push back also needs to come from within. I speak from first hand experience and I am one who speaks his opinion and Truth (to power...) but too many are enslaved to this world(their jobs and a false sense of security) to push back. Sad State we are in!

It is time to Stand with God on and in All functions of Life for No Stance is a Stance to allow Evil to Thrive! It is a choice against God to do Nothing and you will have to answer for this when asked, What did you do in my Name?

God Bless

Hahaha!

You better do some research.

Macy’s crashed as a result of their insulting drop of Trump merchandise. Two days after the announcement they were in the toilet losing 50% of market value right up to today. Penny is not comparable because it is tiny compared to Target and Macy (1/20th the size of Target) and has been essentially flat after a crash two years ago.

Target is the store closest to us. We now pass it and drive a little farther to shop. Would not shop there if they had an awesome sale.

A fragile sensitivity is costly time to exit the utopian world.

Interesting thread.
I was mildly annoyed when the bathroom issue was first discussed nationally.
But I just realized that effortlessly I have not shopped there since.
