Now they done gone too far. Major retailer Target is in panic mode after their alters to pride celebration pride celebrations this year targeted toddlers with tucking and binding clothing.
Target has been annoyingly woke for a while now, something shoppers like me have mostly ignored because if I boycotted every single woke retailer, I’d be sitting here knitting clothes for my children between blog posts, which to be honest, is starting to sound more appealing with every passing woke atrocity. But anyway, Target.
Binding and tucking clothes to toddlers, onesies with pride messages, and cards that read “I’m glad you came out” and “I’m happy that you’re queer” in the kids’ section have also been spotted in Target.
Watch here.
News of such merchandise was unbelievable. But then moms started videoing the merchandise showing up in their local Targets and then sharing those videos to social media, everyone encouraging a boycott to send a very loud message — best take that pervy business outta here and back off our babies.
Us good folk down south raised enough cain by refusing to shop at Target that the retailer held an “emergency meeting.”
Fox News has more:
Some southern Target stores were forced by the corporation to move LGBTQ Pride merchandise away from the front of their locations after customer “outrage” to avoid a “Bud Light situation.”
Many Target locations across the country feature massive June Pride month displays on an annual basis, with items this year ranging from “tuck friendly” bathing suits for transgender people to mugs that say “gender fluid.” But the retail juggernaut has been criticized by some conservatives for the displays, with children’s items particularly irking many customers.
A Target insider told Fox News Digital that many locations, mostly in rural areas of the South, have relocated Pride sections to avoid the kind of backlash Bud Light has received in recent weeks after using a transgender influencer in a promotional campaign.A Target insider said there were “emergency” calls on Friday and that some managers and district senior directors were told to tamp down the Pride sections immediately.”We were given 36 hours, told to take all of our Pride stuff, the entire section, and move it into a section that’s a third the size. From the front of the store to the back of the store, you can’t have anything on mannequins and no large signage,” the Target insider said.”We call our customers ‘guests,’ there is outrage on their part. This year, it is just exponentially more than any other year,” the Target insider continued. “I think given the current situation with Bud Light, the company is terrified of a Bud Light situation.”The insider, who has worked at the retailer for almost two decades, said Target rarely makes such hasty decisions. They said Friday’s call began with roughly 10 minutes on “how to deal with team member safety” because of the amount of backlash the Pride merchandise has generated, noting that Target Asset Protect & Corporate Security teams were present on the call.
But that’s only in a few stores down south. Their pride merchandise has been moved to the back of some stores but is still available in the kids’ sections and online. That ain’t good enough.
But wait, there’s more!
In the background, Target has also buddied up with a chick pretending to be a dude who creates bubbly, colorful, and literally Satanic images. So please, Target Crisis PR people, explain this one away.
They’re literally telling us who they are and what they’re trying to do here.
What Target doesn’t understand is that this is FAR worse than whatever “Bud Light situation” they might be fearing. Bud Light went full Radical Chic by hiring a dude dressed as a girl to sell beer to… dudes? That’s more foolish stupidity and miscalculation than it is malicious. Target though has committed an unforgivable offense — they’re purposely, willingly, and knowingly targeting our children. There is no coming back from that.
I, for one, am out. SO out. We won’t set foot into any establishment that is preying upon and attempting to groom children, to sexualize them from infancy. That is normalizing body mutilation. That is pushing the worst kinds of evil and witchcraft in open defiance to our Creator and the splendor of his Creation. For those making these decisions I pray for mercy. I pray they come to know truth because Luke 17:2 doesn’t mince words here.
Update (5/24/23 4:29 PM): Target claims “tuck-friendly” swimwear is only available in adult sizes. Which makes it totally OK. Or so AP’s fact-checkers claim:
CLAIM: Target’s Pride collection features a bathing suit for kids that is labeled “tuck-friendly.”
AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. The “tuck-friendly” swimsuits are only offered in adult sizes, according to a spokesperson for the company and Target’s website. Kids’ swimsuits in the collection do not feature this label.
…
However, the swimsuits labeled “tuck-friendly” are only in adult sizes, and are not available in kids’ sizes, Kayla Castaneda, a spokesperson for Target, told The Associated Press.
Both the colorful one-piece and black swim bottoms seen in the photos and videos online are clearly labeled on Target’s website as adult swimsuits. Both pages list the products as coming in “general adult sizing” and offer adult XS as the smallest size for sale.
“The ‘tuck-friendly’ swim suits are for adults only,” Castaneda said. The kids’ swimsuits in the Pride collection are not the same design or construction and do not have the same label, Castaneda confirmed.
At a Target in New York City’s downtown Brooklyn neighborhood that the AP visited on Monday, the same adult swimsuits shown on social media featured the “tuck-friendly” tag, while a kids’ black swimskirt for sale instead had a tag reading: “Thoughtfully Fit on Multiple Body Types and Gender Expressions.”
The Pride apparel for kids, adults and pets was located together at the front of the store, in an area often used for seasonal or limited-edition collections, and not in the children’s section.
