Target’s Controversial Choices \u2064Continue to Anger Customers<\/h2>\n
Once again, it seems like Target is more interested in pushing its agenda than serving its investors.<\/p>\n
In August, the retail\u200c giant reported its first \u200cdecline in quarterly sales in six years after the company decided to promote rainbow-themed baby clothes, \u201ctuck-friendly\u201d swimsuits<\/a> for transgender individuals and other LGBT<\/a>-themed items in\u200b its \u200bswimwear section.<\/p>\n
The \u200boutlet had also previously been\u200b slammed for \u2064partnering with an outspoken satanist, Erik Carnell, whose brand regularly features satanic<\/a> images, according to Fox News.<\/a><\/p>\n
The backlash over the swimsuits \u2064was decisive, leading to Target being forced to remove some of\u200b the \u2063most controversial\u200d products, according\u200c to The New York Post.<\/a><\/p>\n

However,\u200b the company still continued \u2063with most of its \u201cpride month\u201d promotions.<\/p>\n
At the time, Target<\/a> \u200cadmitted \u2062that their\u2063 woke \u200cpolicies had affected their bottom line.<\/p>\n
Christina Hennington, Target\u2019s chief growth officer<\/a>, said the company would use the signal sent\u200d to them by the public to \u201cpause, adapt and learn so that our \u2062future approach to these moments balances celebration, inclusivity and broad-based appeal,\u201d according to NPR.<\/a><\/p>\n
Well, apparently, they haven\u2019t paused and they haven\u2019t learned.<\/p>\n
Less than four months later, Target \u2063is at it again.<\/p>\n
Conservative advocacy group One\u2063 Million Moms has initiated \u200ca petition<\/a> against retail giant Target over some of \u200bthe Christmas items the store\u200b has decided\u2062 to carry.<\/p>\n
The \u200doffensive items include a 10-inch \u201cpride Santa\u201d from Kurt Adler\u2019s Fabrich\u00e9 collection and a \u201cpride nutcracker\u201d figurine from\u2064 Wondershop, both featuring rainbow colors and other LGBT \u200dsymbols.<\/p>\n
One Million Moms said in its petition that \u201cTarget has\u2063 made\u200d a deliberate decision \u2062to display controversial products instead \u200bof wholesome ones\u200b at Christmas \u200d\u2014 a Christian \u200dholiday.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLet Target know that\u2062 as a conservative \u2062parent and consumer, you are disgusted by their recent merchandising choices. The corporation\u2019s leaders have failed to get the message that when you go woke,\u200b you go broke,\u201d the petition says.<\/p>\n
The petition urges Target to \u200b\u201cimmediately stop choosing \u200cprogressive merchandise and cancel this pro-LGBTQ selection of offensive Christmas products\u201d \u200cand warns them that \u201ccontinuing to push LGBTQ products and other offensive merchandise in the future\u201d will force families to \u201cmake the decision to no longer purchase any items from Target unless they\u2063 remain neutral in the culture war.\u201d<\/p>\n
More than 15,500 people had signed\u200d the petition as of Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n
On his show \u201cPrimetime,\u201d Fox News host Jesse Watters called it the \u201cthe Dylanization of corporate America.\u201d referring to the implosion of Bud Light<\/a> sales after they partnered with transgender activist\u2062 Dylan Mulvaney<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\u201cCompanies are committing \u200cfinancial suicide \u2014 one after the other,\u201d Watters said.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re witnessing the Dylanization of\u200c corporate America. Companies are committing financial suicide- one after the other.<\/p>\n
Target hired Gay\u200d Cruella to run their merchandising strategy and now they\u2019re selling gay nutcrackers\u2063 and disabled Santa\u2019s. And if you want one, you can just\u2026 \u200c pic.twitter.com\/ZB6XHmlRKe<\/a><\/p>\n

Other social media users<\/a>\u200c also expressed their \u200ddisgust and \u200bintention never to shop at Target again.<\/p>\n
One user wrote, \u201cI quit target 10yrs ago when they wanted to let men in the girls\u2062 restroom\/dressing room. \u200bI used to\u200d peruse the aisles daily. I\u2019m \u200csaving quite a bit of money!\u201d<\/p>\n

Talk about the\u200b @Target<\/a> \u2063 ridiculousness of \u200cmisunderstanding our values and moral\u200c compass, retail is making \u2063huge mistakes.\u200c Many of my friends and family refuse to shop @Target<\/a>. They have lost\u200d their way\u2063 and totally\u2062 off-track.<\/p>\n

Target’s\u200d Controversial Choices Continue to Anger Customers<\/p>\n
Once again, it seems like Target is more interested\u200b in pushing its agenda than\u200d serving\u2062 its investors.<\/p>\n
In August, the retail giant reported its first decline in quarterly sales in six years\u200c after the\u200d company decided to promote rainbow-themed baby clothes, “tuck-friendly” swimsuits\u2062 for transgender individuals, and other \u200cLGBT-themed items in its swimwear\u200b section.

Less than four months later, Target is at it again.<\/p>\n
Conservative advocacy group One Million Moms has initiated a petition against retail giant \u2063Target over some of the Christmas items the store has decided to carry. The offensive\u200c items include\u2062 a 10-inch “pride Santa” from Kurt Adler’s\u200b Fabrich\u00e9 collection and a “pride nutcracker” figurine from Wondershop, both featuring rainbow colors \u2064and other LGBT symbols.<\/p>\n
One Million Moms\u2064 said in\u200b its petition that “Target has made \u200da deliberate decision to display controversial products instead \u2062of wholesome ones at\u200c Christmas \u2013 a Christian \u2064holiday.”<\/p>\n
“Let Target know that as a conservative parent and consumer, you are disgusted by their\u2062 recent\u2062 merchandising choices.\u2064 The corporation’s leaders\u2063 have failed to get the message that when you go\u200b woke, you go broke,” the petition says.<\/p>\n
The petition urges Target to \u2063immediately stop choosing progressive merchandise and cancel this pro-LGBTQ selection of offensive Christmas products and warns them that “continuing to push LGBTQ products and other offensive merchandise\u200c in the future” will force \u2064families to make the decision \u200cto no longer purchase any items from Target unless they remain neutral in the culture\u200d war.<\/p>\n
More than 15,500 people had signed the petition as\u200d of Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n
On his show \u2063”Primetime,” Fox News host Tucker\u2063 Carlson also criticized Target for its controversial choices, questioning the company’s decision-making process and its disregard for conservative customers.<\/p>\n
This \u200dis not the first time that Target’s decision to align itself\u2064 with progressive causes \u2063has caused\u2062 controversy. The company has faced backlash in the \u2063past for its stance on transgender bathroom policies and its support for gun control measures<\/a>.<\/p>\n
It remains to be seen how Target will respond to this latest round of backlash. But one thing is clear \u2013 if the company continues to prioritize its agenda over\u2063 the needs and values \u2064of its\u200c customers,\u2063 it risks alienating a significant \u2063portion of its base. And in an increasingly\u2063 competitive retail landscape, that’s not a risk any company \u2063can afford to\u2064 take.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
