Target is dialing back its LGBTQ-themed merchandise for “Pride Month” after the company took a massive hit in 2023.

Target said it will only offer Pride-themed items in select stores after having sold the merchandise in every one of its locations across America for the past ten years, CNN reported Friday.

The store did pull some of its “Pride Month” clothing in May 2023 after workers were confronted over the items, according to KTLA.

In its report, the outlet said that the items that received backlash included “swimsuits designed for use by some trans women and designs from a company that makes Satanic-themed LGBTQ+ merchandise.”

Video footage shows clothing, accessories, and a home doormat that says, “Gayest Place in Town” from Target’s 2023 “Pride Month” collection:

So we can’t get our women’s swimsuits which are designed for the contours of a male body at Target? What is this world coming to?

Is it still their policy to allow men in the women’s restrooms?

Too little, too late, Target. Not one dime to a company that has officers who promote this nastiness:

“The outlet noted that the company’s vice president for brand marketing, Carlos Saavedra, ‘moonlights as a board member of an advocacy group for K-12 transgenderism and gay status.’”

Done with Target. Family is done with Target, because Target put a TARGET on the backs of our children, and they are shooting arrows of perversion at them. Target is after the children. Wake up people! This is Massive Grooming, right in your face!

We haven’t shopped there in over a year. Won’t ever again. They lost a lot of money from this former Target fan.

I can’t believe any of that garbage sold. Maybe they’re using last year’s garbage for this year as well.

Here’s an idea: How about stores just sell goods to consumers and not get involved in promoting social and political activism?
