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.

40 day? I'm going permanent.
Target is red flavor walmart.
First time I'm hearing of it, and I'm chronically online 😬 not a great sign for the movement
My wife, usually apolitical as long as I've known her, has boycotted Target her favorite store. We used to go shopping at night when nothing was going on. Now, we save money and just hang out at the house. Fuck Target.
Targets to upperclass for me anyway.
When we boycotting Dollar General?
You should have been from the start. Dollar stores are straight up cancer to poor communities.
I forgot to start shopping at Target. Honestly, what do they carry that every other department store doesn't?
Oddly the one in my town is a lot cheaper for things like Nature's Bakery bars than any other grocery store around. Still, stopped going there already and won't go back until they fix their shit.
They have a lot of board games (and special versions of popular ones) that are literally exclusively only sold at Target.
Some people might shop there because it’s closer than Walmart. Also I’m not sure what a 40 day “boycott” will do to sales.
