Target was one of few department stores I actually felt okay about. They hadn't done anything particularly terrible, even what scandals I did find seemed to have nuance to them. Then they decided to wage war on minorities - sorry, "DEI", and I called them to specifically say I'd never shop there again.
I didn't bother to state "unless", but I'd be okay with returning to them if they turn out to fire the people responsible for the move.

They didn't heed the warning of Pillow Guy's demise. There many big US businesses that are going to hurt badly in the coming months and years - all thanks to their support of Trump. It's wonderful.
The only bit of the title I can fully get behind is this:
Target CEO.
Target CEO 🎯🎯
Greedy pricks like this should live in fear.
Wanna hate this guy even more:
- He was so old, he couldn't actually be Target's CEO and the board had to make an exception to let him continue working there. What was that about DEI?!
- Back in the COVID years when Target was doing gangbusters, they "adjusted" their bonus expectations and gave everyone who worked their peanuts while having the third best year on paper.
- Target has been secretly laying off entire teams every month and offshoring, just under the limit to not actually have to announce it publicly.
Source: a buddy of mine who works there that's super pissed, but won't really leave because he makes $200k/yr. He's riding till it dies.
