Target Picks Christmas Time to Hire In-Your-Face Transgender Activist
<< Pride Nutcracker Figure for Sale on Target website.
The backlash that Target faced back in June during Pride Month over "tuck-friendly" swimwear for kids was not enough for the retail giant to get the message from its customers that marketing the transgender agenda to children was not appropriate. Now Target is back, just in time to insult its Christian customers at Christmastime, and a new marketing hire with the attitude that you will accept the pride-themed merch, and you will like it.
Remember when @Target sold tucking swimwear for kids and their sales dropped, stock plunged, and they were sued by shareholders?
Apparently they didn’t learn their lesson cuz they just hired an LGBTQ activist to lead their “LGBTQIA+ multicultural merchandising strategy and pride… pic.twitter.com/wDZW7hshKi

The newest addition to the Target team is Erik Thompson. Thompson goes by the moniker"Gay Cruella" on social mediaand has been hired as the "Senior LGBTQIA+ Segmentation Strategist and Pride Lead." Thompson may have started as a run-of-the-mill diversity hire, having spent roughly ten years with Target before his new position.
His LinkedIn profile which has since been scrubbed also proves that Target has had the LGBT agenda in its marketing crosshairs for a while.
The bio states, "Led Target’s 2019 Pride Business & inclusivity strategy to better serve our guests through diverse and inclusive collection offering, & remain as a loyal industry-leading leader within total Pride+ market, establishing brand love and credibility for total Target."
Target’s stock has dropped 14% YTD.
They lost billions in market cap.
This is what happens when you take a brand that should be for families, but you use it as a propaganda arm for radical ideologies that target children.
So of course, Target has hired LGBTQIA+ strategist… pic.twitter.com/oCrlfuKzvM
