Yes, that’s what I was referring to with Target. In the face of ignorance and hate speech and threats, folding like a stack of cards because you’re worried about your margins isn’t a commitment to diversity. Bigots threatening employees is not a cause to remove the reality making them uncomfortable, it’s cause to get security to throw them the fuck out of your store if you’re “committed to diversity” not just changing your LinkedIn logo once a year.
The problem is that when someone as big with as many resources as they have abandons their stated values so quickly, it just sets the tone for many other companies; and the bigots know if they just act like assholes, many smaller companies wont’ have the resources to be able to support their employees, call the cops, hire security, etc.
