I've not stepped inside a Walmart in over 10 years, I had shopped almost exclusively at Target, but that stopped after they bent the knee.

I still haven't gone inside Walmart, but, they have curbside pickup. Do all my shopping through the app and they bring it out to my car. I don't like that I'm supporting Walmart, but fuck, I've gotta get my shit from somewhere and it's either Amazon, Walmart, Kroger or Target.

You could try smaller, local businesses if Walmart and Target have not pushed them out in your area.

I specifically bought tomboyx boxer briefs for women at target to support their lgbt inclusivity before they dropped dei. Now I won't buy anything from them at all. I know target wasn't perfect but I wanted there to be more options available for people that need them and target was offering that with dei. Now, fuck em. They don't support the people that make their business possible.

As a MN native… fuck Target! I tried until they laid off a bunch of people I know who didn’t wanna work in the DEAD downtown MPLS scene when given the new “rule” … savage!

Haven’t bought from Target since Feb 9. They used to be a store I bought from multiple times per week. I bought from them specifically because I didn’t agree with Walmart or their ethics, and Target — allegedly, I guess — was the opposite. A supporter of the community and social causes. Until it was convenient for Target to not do so anymore.

I have moved to other stores that have a backbone and stand up for their whole community and all of their employees.

Fuck that company. I hope they burn.

The fact that you thought target was ever the opposite of Walmart in ethics demonstrates you were never paying attention in the first place
