This is why you don't give in to boycotts - they'll just keep pushing if you do.
If Walmart and Target and Starbucks and Budweiser and every other targeted brand just shrugged their shoulders and carried on Pride'ing, eventually conservatives would be left with nowhere left to shop at and would lose their enthusiasm for continued boycotting.
You really think a majority of Americans are on board with this pride stuff?
if you ask generic customer what they feel about minor holiday X that retail stores make a huge deal about - if there aren't massive sales, most customers will be equally ambivalent.
there's nothing really to be "on board" about, it's an ignorable decor change. They don't even have music or large amounts of candy like in the winter holidays.
