A 40-day Target boycott starts today. It couldn’t come at a worse time for the company (www.cnn.com)

The boycott, which begins during the start of Lent, comes more than a month after Target made changes to its DEI programs and at a difficult period for the company as it faces an onslaught of tariffs in the middle of a challenging economy.

It's funny because a lot of conservatives started boycotting target years ago because the company pandered just slightly left. Now they pandered right and people on the left are mad. It's what that shitty corporation that pays slave wages deserves. The company could fail, and I'm here for it.

lol, target will be fine. Virtually nobody actually participates in these boycotts.

Don't do the silly fad boycotts, just stop shopping at the big problems. No Amazon, no Walmart, no Target, and obviously no Tesla.
