LifeSiteNews) — Adults seeking to groom children into the LGBT lifestyle just got a helping hand from Target, the Minnesota-based retailer that 10 years ago became one of the first corporations to embrace the woke agenda.
The superstore recently introduced a line of rainbow-themed clothing for teenagers and babies ahead of so-called Pride Month, which the company has celebrated every June since 2013. Among the most controversial items listed on the company’s website is a onesie designed for an infant.
Target first caved to the gay agenda after pop star Lady Gaga ended her deal with them in 2011 after learning they donated money to a candidate for Minnesota governor who opposed “gay marriage.” Just one year later, the company made a donation to the pro-gay Family Equality Council. In 2016, they adopted gender-neutral bathrooms after first allowing men to use women’s bathrooms. — Article continues below Petition — Perverted "Burlesque for Babies" drag shows should be made illegal
The new clothing line gives customers a chance to purchase items such as a rainbow tutu, a t-shirt that says, “It Takes All Kinds,” a hooded sweatshirt that reads “Not a Phase,” and a baby outfit that has the words “¡Bien Proud!” embroidered on it.
Bibs that say, “I Am Proud Of You Always,” socks with LGBT propaganda on them, and miscellaneous pro-gay books and pet items are also for sale. Many of the models that appear on the company’s website seem to be homosexual or suffering from gender confusion.
After Target allowed men to use women’s bathrooms in 2016, grassroots leaders called for a boycott. Ultimately, they secured over 1 million signatures. As a result, Target’s sales experienced a 7% drop off and their stock price plummeted from $87.50 to $55.77 per share. Nevertheless, the company doubled down on its LGBT support in 2017, when they launched a pro-gay “Take Pride” line of products. They have since continued to make donations to pro-gay initiatives.
Several conservative influencers took notice of Target’s advocacy. Terry Schilling of the American Principles Project wondered “How is this not grooming?”

Daily Wire commentator Matt Walsh called for a Bud Light-style protest of the company.
What @Target is doing is far worse than anything Bud Light did. They are selling chest binders & “tuck-friendly” bathing suits for children.
Target is calling our bluff. But just like any other company, they need our business. We did it with Bud Light. Now it’s Target’s turn. pic.twitter.com/C2O2mkgDxw

I had no idea they were doing this as well.
If they want to really come out of the closet they should start with being completely honest with their name
Target-ing children
Say no to peaceful coexistence!

You can dress your infant in “LGBT” inspired diapers and onesies???
Well, we’ve heard recently, that even infants and toddlers can be transgender, and can communicate this to their parents, even though they can’t talk yet.
So, considering that, of course you need to put your infant in a rainbow outfit...........
Target’s motto-
We’re WOKE, and we don’t care what our customers think.
I’ve been somewhat surprised over the years...that the LEFT wasn’t having meld downs over the name “TARGET”
Sounds like bad karma to me
Or “tuck-friendly” bathing suits for children? What mom does that kind of thing? What dad allows it?
And they want us to feel sorry for them that they are losing merchandise to thieves in record amounts.
This is not new territory for target. They were among the first to embrace the woke BS. They were among the first to let the creeps into the girls bathrooms years ago.
“their stock price plummeted from $87.50 to $55.77 per share”
And now their stock is trading at almost double what it was before the boycott. Which is why they don’t care about the outrage.
“even infants and toddlers can be transgender, and can communicate this to their parents”
Blink once if you’re a boy, twice if you’re a girl...
I just laugh when they lose a billion in theft. Sucks to be them.
“And they want us to feel sorry for them that they are losing merchandise to thieves in record amounts.”
Feel sorry? They advertise woke and they attract woke customers who steal now they want us to feel sorry?
Sorry, not sorry. Sounds like Karma to me.
Yeah I know.....just some of the reasons I wouldn’t go into one to throw up.
Boycotted then for last ten years
I used to go to Target once in a while. No more.

I am done with that sorry excuse for a retailer!
