    We're you looking for baby clothing also?

    I'm just curious because you said this was thrown at your face? Did you have baby trans cloths thrown at your face? I'm confused about that line?


    Do you mean literally someone threw these clothes at you? That would be odd though. But I wouldn't find that harmful. It's fabric so it shouldn't leave any marks on you or hurt you physically.

    Yeah, and Bud Light was successful and sold very well for decades, until it didnt.

    New Coke was a disaster for Coke. Big successful companies can still make mistakes. They adjust and recover.

    Actually Bud Light, the brand, had been on a steady downward trajectory for decades. That's why they partnered with all those influencers, to get into new and younger demographics.

    If I have to bet on SuraGotMadHops or Target being right about what is profitable, I'm going to bet on Target.

    Rent prices rising for the pay check to paycheck class but to be honest this is the biggest issue of our era.

    Animated robots expressing their pronouns is going to be the downfall of society.

    Are you a billionaire? Because those are the only people who if we discover viable living conditions outside this planet that will have access to leaving this dumpster fire society and planet. You post on Clutchfans so most likely you aren't one and will be one of the billions that will be stranded here

    And no, society isn't a dumpster fire because people express their pronouns. It's a dumpster fire because rich people are spamming this type of content to rage bait over small powerless groups of people because they'd rather the working class be angry at small powerless groups rather than the people who have the wealth and power that are responsible for the rise in cost of living for the Proletariat class.

    Once the wealthy fully replace the working class with AI and automation, then it becomes masks off and you'll start seeing automated turrets surrounding gated suburban wealthy communities.

    My bet is that the self-referential bubble of crazies who like this crap is a lot smaller than you (and some woke marketers) think. The negative effect caused by people finally getting fed up will outweigh any additional revenue from woke crazies. These people are louder, not more.

    Even in this seemingly leftist subsection of the BBS, when you do anonymous polls, common sense wins, not wokism and transgenderism. Most people just don't speak up openly against this nonsense. Until it just gets to be too much.

    Even if they go full on stupid and only put this stuff in their rural Alabama stores this all sounds an awful lot like cancel culture to me.

    Sounds like parents need better parenting and communication with their kids. Good for Target.

    When schools should be obligated to inform parents about behavior is such a thorny, gray area.

    I think on issues of identity it's best to just leave institutions out of it. Especially the older they get (high school age for certain).

    There's the whole separate issue of how do schools handle identity issues mechanically (shared spaces, gender exclusivity, etc), but as far as the school acting as a relationship intermediary for the parent, outside of the realm of discipline as it relates to being able to perform the function of education, that's a bridge too far.

    Most people don’t care about stuff like Target doing stuff like this either way. For that matter there has been a debate among activist about corporate sponsorship of pride parades.

    Nah - there is a market for it, just like years ago there was a market for Walmart selling guys and ammo. However, boycotts and protests and threats of violence can cause a corporation to decide it isn’t worth it - Walmart stopped selling guns and I suspect that Target will cut back on their LGBTQ+ stuff.
