Oh adidas, typical mansplaining gaslighting bs. Don't worry you are now on my boycotted list.

Apparently Target is offering more nonsense too as we gear up for "pride month." I haven't shopped there in years and it has been remarkably easy to give that store up.

So I was in target a few days ago, and saw some glow bracelets right in front. Really cool colors, purple and green….and the package said ‘lesbian’. What!? Were there straight colors? I didn’t look any further, I was afraid too.

I was really put off. I got my pick up and left the store. It was right in front, right in your face. Screaming all the sexual orientations in a kids glow bracelet.

Target has an entire line now dedicated to TRANSGENDER/HOMOSEXUAL children--I have STOPPED SHOPPING AT TARGET--and I shopped there every month for many years!

I stopped shopping there during the plandemic because our local store really went down hill. Now after hearing this, I’ll never go back!

WONDERFUL; I hope you can find a LOCAL store or stores that meet your needs. This is what we MUST DO to send a CLARION CALL to these tyrants and wealthy despots that we will NOT BEND to their WILL!

Maybe I am just oblivious, but I think Kroger is hanging in there, staying neutral, let's hope! Kroger is big!

I wonder what Ralph's and Albertson's are doing--when I lived in southern CA--they were HUGE!

Ralphs is Krogers, we call ours Fred Meyer. I’m not positive but I think they started in Portland, I’ll have to check!

Here's the lowdown on ALBERTSON'S and KROGER'S and YES...KROGER'S owns RALPH'S stores. I stopped shopping Albertson's in P.S. and went with a "discount" chain--cannot think of their name right now. The produce and deli weren't as clean and fresh but I saved abouto 20% over all on my weekly groceries. Now I remember the name...STATER BROS.--do you have them in OR, Karen?

Hey, Karen--is that a Corgi in your arms? One of my neighbors raised Corgis when we lived in Palm Springs many moons ago. They are the most endearing doggies--very high energy and very "close to the ground"--LOL!

Yes! I’m in Central Oregon and Penny is my 3rd corgi! She’s 11 now! I love that breed, short but not small 😊 All of mine have been pretty mellow, thank goodness.

Omgosh. Every corporation is going with the agenda. There nust be a reason for it, like ramifications if they dont.

Oh absolutely - do you not know about the W.E.F. and their "stakeholder doctrine"? If these multinational, huge corporations don't "bend" to the ESG doctrine of the W.E.F.--they lose "points" in the stock market exchanges and their stocks are then "less attractive" to investors (corrupted by people who think they are g o d s unto themselves). So...we will see more and more of this alignment with this corrupt system. BUY LOCAL, LOCAL, LOCAL!!!

Did you watch the video I linked to my last message--it explains the E(nvironmenal/S(ocial Equity/G(overnance doctrine in detail, Angela?

NOW, AngelaK...this is REALLY a "God thing"--right AFTER I wrote a comment to you (below)...I opened an e-mail from The Heritage Action group and they were sharing in a very well-done video what the ESG doctrine is doing to our world. Here's a link to that video! https://donate.heritageaction.com/action-eme99587/?utm_source=heritageaction&utm_campaign=eme99587&utm_medium=email&utm_term=imge&utm_content=hfile&money_pledge=true&mkt_tok=ODI0LU1IVC0zMDQAAAGL1FCl8qLOaizn3JYBWUteJzUyKlJUMP5qdbS__KH11UrU9VhMPdh__ljV2JFGAHLodFLEhB5T799fUM3bdREqAntb4H_70NXfbWBJI05YTeC7zftY

gender and sexuality are the new tattooing and piercing for young'ns, it's no big deal to them, They think we just are old fashioned with our hang-ups about it. A willing mass of manipulated minds believing LIES as Truth : recruits to be radicalized against the opposition (the rest of US!)

Yeah, no Target for me, not for a long time now. Their prices aren't that good and their merchandising is crap.

I just saw that! Womens bathing suits with genital pouches and some sources say, little childrens clithes with pride messages.

The company I work for sent out something about blah, blah, blah, pride month...I see some more letters have also been added to the alphabet soup of sin and depravity as well.

the LGBTQRSTiD Community isn't 100% loudmouthed activist and Marxist but it seems that way often enough as that's who's running the media to transform us and our nation into something we aren't and don't want to be.

Buy local from people you know. You don't need half the crap from these big companies. Yuengling beer, a local cosmetic company. Lots of local artisans etc. You will be better satisfied and will save money.

Have to go across state lines to get Yuengling beer but worth the road trip!

Not too many exist anymore. We live in a corporate olugarchy. The demoncrats hate small business. They cant brainwash the masses otherwise.

And we have to remember that some of the small businesses are woke too 😕

Ask the owners if they support the ESG doctorine and wokeism--if they look befuddled--YOU'RE SAFE!

RunningLogic's avatar

Sure but my point was, you can’t automatically count on small businesses to be anti woke, and sometimes there are no good options locally 😕

I understand; but I believe that would apply only to someone living in an extremely rural location--which probably accounts for a minority of Americans.

Expand full comment
RunningLogic's avatar

Certainly a minority live in rural America so that’s true but it’s sometimes difficult to find businesses in certain areas even suburbia or urban areas who aren’t afraid to buck the woke trend. There might be more businesses but there’s also more pressure. And it also depends on the type of business and how common it is. Not saying it’s impossible but it can sometimes be more challenging than one might think, even in red or purple states.

I disagree--but perhaps your area is more libby than where I am presently living, Running.

I think it really depends. Also depends how far you’re willing to drive and what you’re looking for. Some sectors seem to be more affected than others.
