ay just checking in to say, shut the fuck up and get the fuck off of the internet you loser antisocial nazi pieces of shit
2 of the downvotes are almost for sure the 2 nazis in the thread. the third is probably just bc it wasn't funny lmao
do the research yourself you lazy lying scum, target directly explained why they pulled merch and there's no reason to believe we'll find anything different if starbucks talks to the media about it.

re: starbucks, nothing is clear bc starbucks corporate isn't even admitting that they're pulling decorations yet, but internal communications and rumours specifically mention the threats against target
to summarize, you're perfectly and completely wrong about everything, and fuck you, you homophobic rube.
lots of people here seem to be indicating that target and starbucks are doing this because it's not profitable to do rainbow capitalism. it still is, as much as rainbow capitalism is kinda revolting conceptually. nothing has changed except the following:
far right nazis, emboldened by the increasing political power of nazi homophobes like trump, desantis, and like 60% of gerrymandered state legislatures, are sending death threats to places that put up pride decorations and products. they're also showing up to harass and scream at employees about it.
it's terrorism. this is what conservatives do. and starbucks and target are full of cowards for letting terrorists dictate their behaviours.
quickly editing in sources since some homophobe in other replies tried to lie about it:
target receiving bomb threats about LGBTQ+ merch: https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/06/12/target-bomb-threat-pride/
starbucks internal comms and rumours specifically mentioning target bomb threats as rationale for removing decorations: https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-news/starbucks-denies-unions-accusation-banning-pride-decorations-rcna89043
DHS warning about far right terrorism targeting LGBTQ+ and Jewish folk, for context and validation: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/dhs-warns-terror-threats-lgbtq-jewish-migrant-rcna59426
this is fundamentally true
but rainbow capitalism still works for profit. the reason they're backing away is terrorist threats from the far right, and harassment of staff and management. they're literally scared that the death threats they get over this stuff is going to result in a mass shooting. and thanks to accelerationists in US nazi politics, it realistically eventually will
that's no excuse to cave to these people. but that's the reason it's happening.
jesus was actually gay and there's proof throughout the new testament.
oh damn i forgot, i also received a divine revelation about it. god was pretty chill about the whole thing.
shut the fuck up nazi, gay people receiving healthcare and existing in public is not radical. nor is starbucks at any risk of going broke
they're just scared, like target was, that you chud braindead ass nazi terrorists are going to show up and scream at their staff or shoot someone.
impostor alert lmao
