But Target has now shifted its message. The company is the poster child for corporate America’s change on DEI and direct public commitments to advance progress for Black Americans and racial minorities. Because Target was so vocal in its diversity efforts in recent years, the company’s shift has alienated some loyal customers and suppliers.

George Floyd “could have been one of my Target team members,” Cornell later said. Maybe that's why Target changed its tune. It hired too many George Floyds as a result of its DEI program.

With DEI, he could have been. Target probably has many employees who were hired on because of DEI. They look like President Camacho’s cabinet on Idiocracy.

So Target makes a habit of hiring drug addicts who rob pregnant women?

It’s hard to survive in brick and mortar retail in any age.
In a decade or less Target will be placed on the ash heap of American retail.
Just a memory like Montgomery Ward or as it was known in my family, Monkey Ward.

Just because a company does this for a few years doesn’t mean it has to be a lifelong commitment.

Don’t forget Target being ahead (or is it behind?) the curve on the trans madness too.

FU Target. I'll never step into a Target store again after what they pushed. Brian Cornell can hug a root.

The merchandising may have changed, but Target corporate philosophy hasn’t. BTW, is restroom choice at Target still allowed by gender “selection”?

Wasn’t Target one of the stores, which had swimsuits which helped a man’s body squeeze in , so his body resembled the contours of a woman’s body? It was targeted at so called trans people, who had not had certain surgical procedures?
To: Opinionated Blowhard
gotta wonder...were they hiring George Floyd types to boost sales through in-store intimidation practices? heard a few target shopping horror stories that were downright frightening. the worst one was a middle-aged grandma being confronted by a nappy headed...well you get the picture.

They still have a gender neutral bathroom available.
Now whether we’ll see “tucking” underwear for toddlers this June is still an open question.

His team consists of drug crazed felons? Good to know!

I am sticking with Walmart. That outfit does not make a BIG deal about DEI. No Amazon for me either. I am 100% for meritocracy. It is the best way towards prosperity.

The black hucksters have called for a boycott of Target now. The left hates any ally that moderates even an inch more than anything else you can name.
