World's largest retailer Walmart nixes DEI and LGBT-themed products after pressure from conservative activist: 'This will send shockwaves'........

'This is the biggest win yet for our 'movement to end wokeness' in corporate America,' ....Walmart also agreed to stop using the terms 'DEI' and 'Latinx' in official communication.

Some of the sweeping changes include abandoning a $100 million racial equity center set up in 2020 after the police killing of George Floyd and leaving a prominent LGBTQ+ gay rights index.

The retail juggernaut also won't be giving priority treatment to suppliers that are 51 percent-owned by women, minorities, veterans or members of the LGBTQ community.

Walmart has said that it will better monitor its third-party marketplace items to make sure they don't feature sexual and transgender products aimed at minors.

That would include chest binders intended for youth who are going through a gender change, the company said.

The Bentonville, Arkansas-based retailer will also be reviewing grants to Pride events to make sure it is not financially supporting sexualized content that may be unsuitable for kids.

For example, the company wants to makes sure a family pavilion is not next to a drag show at a Pride event, the company said.

The changes don't stop there. Walmart has scrapped any use of race or gender as a criterion in awarding supplier contracts, signaling a stark departure from efforts to improve diversity in its business partnerships.

You know, I routinely shop at 2 different Walmarts and can’t remember seeing any woke crap at either one......I wonder if it’s a regional thing.

EXCELLENT - REJECT the lies of Satan's false prophet Barack Hussein Obama and the whole Globohomo network (whomever they may be) - PRAY Christians, PRAY! We have a short time to work for the Gospel before this world enters the darkness of the 7-years of 'Peace and Security' Tribulation period.

A society that continually pushes Almighty God out is getting that void filled by the god of this world, that Old Serpent called the Dragon and Satan. These people are his goats; they do his desires. And they want to take others down with them. They reject the Messiah of this world, the Lord Jesus Christ.

That this is running through so much of our society today is shocking even to me. BUT it is prophesied for the Last Days. People will think things are basically normal as they go about their "normal" lives; oblivious to the season.

It must be. I’m in Tulsa County and I haven’t seen that garbage, either. Then again, I don’t browse the clothing section at Walmart, either. All my clothes are ordered online.

We may have a short season to spread the Gospel before the End Times really get going...

I shopped Target one time - never went back. Uncomfortable being there.

Target specifically will suffer serious sales problems as a result and Walmart will benefit.

Sam Walton would roll over in his grave if he saw what Walmart became.

It’s only a partial rejection. Just the part that involves children. The rest is still a go. Half a step is better than none, but they lack the conviction to pull out of DIE completely.

I’ve seen photos of that junk when they first put it in stores..... there was an outcry then for subjecting children seeing it. Adults were disgusted of course. Nobody wants to see that crap while shopping.
