1. Why are we boycotting target? Haven't heard about this one yet.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

2. There was a 40-day boycott because they scaled their DEI work way back...and it just kept going.

3. Target canceled dei on orders from t. And

It also discontinued its three-year DEI goals and Racial Equity Action and Change initiatives, which involved advancing the careers of Black employees, instituting anti-racism training for team members, promoting Black-owned businesses, and sourcing products from Black suppliers.

… more …

4. Cutting off the nose to spite the face. Giving a billion

more consumer dollars to Walmart, which also did away with DEI, and making Bezos richer doesn't help.

6. I believe most of the boycotters switched to Costco who didn't drop DEI.

11. # of costcos vs target and walmarts

600 , 1,950 , 4,600.

Costco also is more limited selection bulk goods, while Walmart and Target are more similar w greater selection and more everyday need items.

I'm sure some Costco might have picked up a little more, but most people don't have it as a real option, and it doesn't fill in a lot of the gaps for Target shoppers.

12. You are correct, Costco has seen an increase of foot traffic same time Target

Had and is having a decline.

7. Costco. Rev. Al Sharpton led a big group of his congregation over there, & gave them the info...

…about the company’s excellent record as an employer & business.

5. Poor Target

The right boycotted them for putting rainbows and binding bra's front-and-center in their stores, and now the left is boycotting them for scaling back DEI.

Glad I don't own any stock.

9. Why "poor Target"?

You reap what youbsow.

I loved that store, and it is a huge inconvenience not to use them or Amazon, but we don't.

10. Sarcasm, friend

I haven't been in a Target in probably a decade. I use amazon weekly.
