Congratulations, Suzieanne!! you did it again.

A perfectly good non-racial thread and BAM.BAM thank you ma'am, let the "you're a racist" begin. 🙁 🙁
So there were only white people here?

So non-racial to you means "only white folk"?

"You don't have to buy them' simply makes no sense on this thread. I did not figure you for one who segues, and slinks away from an issue. Why say that, when no one 'has to' buy anything. But since that is your great answer, my response is that Target has suffered Because NO ONE is BUYING their stuff.
WGrass.....you say "no one has to buy". I say, 'No one is buying". RIGHT!!!
Debating you libs is like shooting 100 fish in a small barrel. Just pitiful.
Can you just state in plain language then what target did to earn their boycott?

Round in circles but the boycott was because target was selling t shirts with rainbow colors during pride week. Nevermind there were people buying the shirts.

You don't have to buy them Joe.
BTW, accolades to Wildgrass, he maintains his composure throughout, not a small feat for a liberal. He is rare, not a screaming mimi.
He has the concept of not showing any emotion. I get emotional myself, when libs want our stuff, (As you will see in the debt ceililng fight), but I restrain myself on the Forum. I could scream though@!!!

This is a stumper.

Lots of retailers sell WOKE stuff. Why pick on Target?
I don't know. We should ask someone who is boycotting.

All I do is plain language. Target allowed themselves to be duped and controlled by probably 10% of the country. Not all of the 12% American Africans are Woke, so lets say 5% of them, and the rest are liberals like people on this Forum. So they became gross with their marketing (which may have seemed normal to you and Shav), but a lot of people did not like it. You probably dont have children? You like the drag queens an stuff, so yeah, you still will not get it.
It was all about the money. You are aware that California would not let Blackrock or Vanguard handle their billions in the pension funds if they invested in Exon, etc. They forced them to invest in climate, etc to get the business.
So, Wall Street is now WOKE. Weird, huh?

"allowed themselves to be duped and controlled" is not plain language. You're writing in euphemisms.

What did they do?

EoT says: Hey Troll-a-dole, you know as well as I do, that welfare recipients are 60% white.
But again, you push to change the thread from Target losing $10B over to racism.

EoT says: Doh! It means the topic of the thread is not racist. You are, but not the thread.

Nice try, Susieanne.

I cannot, nor can Richard Fowler, a gay black journalist on FOX! If HE said yesterday on Fox that he cannnot define it, I think you can understand how a straight-ass conservative white person like myself can have NO idea what it is. Is it just a movement to get our stuff, I just don't know. Is it a movement to tell us folks stuff that is irrelant to us? Why do you (woke) people have a neeeeed to project your crap? Can you not just live your crap?
But you are right, cannot define Woke. I would ask you to define it, but you never even answered my last question. Pitiful.
