Target has lost $10 billion in market valuation over the last 10 days as the popular retailer continues to face backlash over its Pride-themed clothing line for children.

A week ago Wednesday, Target enjoyed its stock value at $160.96 a share, but following the calls to boycott the Minneapolis-based retailer over its “PRIDE” collection, the value plummeted and closed Friday at $138.93 a share.

I’m enjoying this, especially because it means the ordinary folks out there have had enough, and are staying away from Target and Dud Lite.

They should change their name to reflect their corporate goal.

I don’t get the women’s swimsuit with room for a man and his private parts.

From what they describe, a man has to do certain procedures to fit into the women’s swimsuit.

Not to get graphic, but I think that could be really uncomfortable for a man. And they want to do this, to try to appear the way a woman appears in a swimsuit?? But this is a man doing this?

I will have to go to reeducation camp on all of this someday.

I don’t even know what the 50 plus gender identities discovered so far are.

It’s not LGBTQ+ friendly. It’s LGBTQ+ promotion. ‘Friendly’ implies a benign, passive, somewhat indifferent relationship.

Interesting how those who decided NOT to spend money at retailers who step in the proverbial crap pile, ON PURPOSE, are made out to be the bad guys. More interesting is how there just aren’t that many BMW’s out there in real life so what’s the point of catering to them? btw...BMW is Bitching, Moaning, Whining. In that order. Thanks for understanding.

And yet, oddly, we haven't lost a cent. Who bets on losing horses, anyway?

What does a "transwoman" -- let;s call it "trans-DIck: -- actually "tuck" into a woman's swimsuit?

How completely binary of these idiots.

And besides, if there really are more than forty gender identities, which is it about all these males who only want to identify as female. How binary bigoted is that?

Dodger stadium averages 47k attendance per game. Will it be affected over Jack Fertig’s followers?

The trick is going to be keeping the stock price down for the whole quarter. If they are forced to revise guidance it will be bad, otherwise they’ll say it’s just normal business fluctuation and skate.

Target decided to become a vehicle for child abuse.

They decided to propel the psychological abuse of “trans” messaging encouraging children to disassociate from their biology.

And they decided even to supply implements for the physical abuse of children: garments for strapping down female breasts and “tucking” male genitals, intermediate steps to the surgical obliteration of these “wrong” body parts.

Target cannot expect to escape the consequences of these decisions. Most consumers do not share the company’s enthusiasm for child abuse.
