Walmart Under Fire for LGBTQ+ Merchandise After Target Retreats
Target, LGBTQ+ rights advocates and anti-trans activists are now focusing on Walmart's approach to the debate and putting the company's marketing strategy under increased scrutiny.After calls to boycott Target over its trans-friendly products—part of its Pride season's collection—the American retailer announced on Tuesday that it was removing some items in its Pride collection.The decision was seen as a small victory by anti-trans activists, which have appeared galvanized by the retailer's move and eager to put another company that sells Pride-related merchandise—Walmart—under the same amount of scrutiny."We've backed #Target into a corner for selling #Pride merch in the children's section.
Now we go for #Walmart. These woke companies need to know that enough is enough. Not ONE MORE F****** DAY. They're NOT GETTING our kids," tweeted one user on Wednesday."TARGET and WALMART are selling this PRIDE book.
