More than 200 LGBTQ groups demand Target RESTOCK 'tuck-friendly' swimsuits and take a stand against 'anti-LGBTQ+ extremists' within next 24 hours - as supermarket faces dual backlash after shedding $14b after debacle
The Human Rights Campaign, along with GLAAD and GLSEN asked Target to 'reject and speak out against anti-LGBTQ+ extremism'
They argue that showing support for the community is good for business
But Target has lost $14 billion in market value since it was revealed that the chain was selling 'tuck-friendly' women's bathing suits

When they do, I hope Conservatives stick to their guns and Target collapses.

If you or someone you know is seeking "tuck-friendly" swimsuits, it may be helpful to explore specialized retailers, LGBTQ+-friendly clothing brands, or online stores that cater to transgender and gender-nonconforming individuals. Additionally, reaching out to local LGBTQ+ organizations or support groups may provide valuable resources and recommendations for finding inclusive swimwear options.

The group wrote: 'We’re calling on Target to: (a) release a public statement in the next 24 hours reaffirming their commitment to the LGBTQ+ community (b) put Pride merchandise back on the sales floor and online in full (c) ensure safety of team members who are on the front lines.'

The letter added: 'When it comes to advancing diversity, equity and inclusion, there is no such thing as neutrality.'

It claims that those who are supporting the ongoing boycott are 'extremists.'

All they had to do is be Switzerland, be neutral. They decided to take a stand on an issue that they really didn’t need to. Now, no pun intended, they are fucked from both sides.

LOL, bunch of poor college student activists in gender studies classes making demands. I can't wait to watch Target sweat this one out and eventually tank from their own corporate stupidity.

My son was in the local SW Idaho target today, and said the pride display was very noticeable! But was located near the woman's section.

"The Human Rights Campaign, along with GLAAD and GLSEN asked Target to 'reject and speak out against anti-LGBTQ+ extremism' They argue that showing support for the community is good for business."

Its so good for business they lost $14 billion dollars.  Keep it up!  Stellar business model!

Target fucked themselves over by ever pandering to a small subset of a small demographic. I hope they continue to feel the pain of conservatives taking their $$ elsewhere.

So two companies lose a combined $40 billion supporting LGBTQWTF, and these groups complain that they didn't do enough.  Makes a pretty strong argument that there is no point trying to appease any group that exists solely on their victim status.

Maybe to 200 groups should collect up their nickels and dimes and buy a controlling interest in Target and then they can demand what they want.  Until then, they can fuck off.

How many of those protesters actually bought anything at Target? You would think as much as they complain and demand, that they would be able cover that loss Target has.

I'd be curious what companies will benefit, in sales, from the corporations that are shedding billions to appease a very tiny minority?

That is a shit ton of money that could jumpstart a small business or revive others, that money is still going to get spent by people.

Some company that is smart (and brave) could pick up a windfall of consumer spending.

I like seeing that Stephen Miller is suing them for documents. It could be the start of some serious class action lawsuits coming down on these corporations for their total disregard for their shareholders.
