Blame the Government. At least in NY State anyway, anyone selling restricted items (in particular alcohol) must verify to the State that they are asking for proof of age and have a system and employee training in place to do so.
When I buy beer and they ask for my birthday, I tell them jan 1, 1909. They look at me funny and I tell them to put in in the computer, it will work.
They asked, I gave them one, the system works.

Some retailers tie themselves to a identity not the mechandise. The popularity of those identities goes up and down. Some identities have small followings. Some weak followings. Others are large, and/or strong.
The anti-Gun crowd tried to tie Kroger Supermarkets to the pro-gun crowd. I immediately saw in Atlanta that blatant “conceal” carry became rampant at Kroger. Kroger management took neither side. Winner: Kroger.
Other places are able to transition from one image to another. But some places are unable to transition. Times change and they are not able to change with the times.

The retail giant continues to face boycotts following its decision to scale back diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts.
I don’t think they are connecting the dots..............

“There are no shortage of critics out there today. The way to prove those critics wrong is with action that leads to results.”
meaning they will do the same thing, expecting different results.

It’s a shame. I really liked Target 15+ years ago. Shopped there on a regular basis for most of my household supplies.
When they went “gay” I swore off them.

If a man goes into the women's bathroom at my Target, he'll get the shit kicked out of him.
By the women.

Target never banned the Salvation Army specifically. They don’t allow solicitation of any kind.

Perhaps a new logo to replace the “Target” Just add holes about the target, and the business model is exposed.

When a store asks me for proof of age I just point to my bald head.
It gets everybody around (including the cashier) cracking up....
***************************************************
Still have mine. Just about pure white. Pull off the hat and point - get snickers all around....

Reading this article about a “change” in management sounds more like changing deck chairs on the Titanic.

Not sure the best way to handle the gay and dei stuff as a big brand CEO in 2025
