Why TF is Target scaling back DEI policies? Other companies are following suit. I expect mass consumer outrage and boycotts.

Not Costco…
In a nearly unanimous decision, Costco shareholders voted in support of Costco’s current diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives after the National Center for Public Policy Research submitted a proxy proposal to audit the company’s “litigation, reputational and financial risks.” As the Trump administration levels against DEI, Costco is swimming against a tide causing numerous large retail corporations to dial back DEI initiatives, including Amazon, Walmart, McDonald’s, Lowe’s, Tractor Supply and most recently Target.https://www.forbes.com/sites/pamdanziger/2025/01/2...In a darkening world, look for the points of light.

I kind of doubt there will be mass consumer outrage or boycotts. Seems like a lot of apathy in the country.

Remember this,
Retail giant Target rolled out an “LGBT Pride” collection that includes so-called “tuck-friendly” wear and rainbow-colored onesies for infants and children — stoking conservative outrage that echoes the Bud Light fiasco.
This may give you a clue.

Why TF is Target scaling back DEI policies? Other companies are following suit.This likely has something to do with it: one of Trump's Executive Orders ends DEI programs not just for the federal government, but for any private companies that contract with the federal government (probably paving the way to make it easier for his buddies to get government contracts).
https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2025/01/22/tr...The widely anticipated action to overturn decades of affirmative action and diversity precedent is expected to have an immediate chilling effect on corporate DEI efforts.
Trump’s executive order aims to end diversity, equity and inclusion policies in the federal government and affirmative action in federal contracting. It bars the government from pushing contractors to diversify their workforce and taps federal agencies to use Civil Rights-era laws “to combat illegal private-sector DEI preferences, mandates, policies, programs and activities.”

Why???? For the safety of their employees from newly empowered, armed cultists and paramilitaries.
Knowing the orange dicktater pardons violent MAGAts, Target doesn't want trouble from Trump's paramilitary organizations who are looking for targets on which they can take revenge.

Not to worry, there are still plenty of Costco employees who can be hunted for sport. That you guys believe this sort of thing is insane.
