Target Hires “Pride Strategist” Who Vows To “Make Trouble”

How charming….

Target just hired someone named Erik Thompson, also known as the Gay Cruella on Instagram (duh), who is Target’s new LGBTQIA+ (say that 10 times fast!) multicultural merchandising strategy and Pride businesses leader!

Yes, really:

It’s no secret that the retail store Target has not endeared itself to Christians anytime lately.

In fact, Target’s main focus in recent years has been about pushing ‘LGBTQ’ propaganda by prioritizing products that support that specific agenda.

They’ve done this in spite of the mostly negative responses they’ve received for their trouble.

Back in June, Target even backtracked on pushing their “pride” collection by forcing several stores to move the collection to the back of the building after receiving so much backlash.

In spite of all of this, it doesn’t appear that the retail giant has learned any lessons.

In fact, they appear to be doubling down, as they just promoted Erik Thompson as their ‘gay pride specialist’ to help them through this holiday season…

Thompson, who has been with Target since 2016, will now serve as their “Senior LGBTQIA+ Strategist and Pride Lead.”

What does that even mean?..

Our friends over at Newsmax have the latest PR stunt from Target:

Although Target faced Pride Month merchandise boycotts, a lawsuit and a 10% decline in its stock following this year’s controversial collection, the retailer appears to be doubling down on its commitment to this market.

Target has promoted Erik Thompson to Senior LGBTQIA+ Strategist and Pride Lead, according to a @LibsofTikTok post on X and Thompson’s LinkedIn profile.

In his new role overseeing Target’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer/questioning, intersex, and asexual marketing, Thompson says he plans to “flip the script and rewrite the narrative of CPG [consumer packaged goods] retail industries to better serve all segments and thoughtfully & authentically cater to *ALL guests, ALL humans & ALL hearts* who enter our stores and across the nation.”

Daily Wire shed more light on the new role:

Target reportedly selected a man named Erik Thompson as its Senior LGBTQIA+ Segmentation Strategist and Pride Lead, according to a post he shared on Instagram that was flagged by popular X account Libs of TikTok. Thompson, who goes by “gaycruella” on the social media platform, shared with followers that he was “honored” to accept the role.

“Time to whip out the Glitter & Hellfire flamethrowers and rip that old world to shreds darlings,” the self-described Target corporate employee shared. “Let’s flip that script and rewrite that narrative. This time for ~ALL Guests, ALL Humans & ALL Hearts.”

A post featuring Thompson’s announcement was shared on X, which prompted many to react to the news on the original post. One commenter asked, “lol you gonna make Targets sales tank too?” to which Thompson responded, “Yes. Yes I will make sales tank,” with heart and kissing emojis.

Suffice to say, Target has really missed their mark…

This is all just in time for the holiday season.

This is the time of season that rightly means so much to Christians, so naturally the retail giant is ‘targeting’ Christmas directly.

The Washington Examiner has more on what shoppers can expect this holiday season from Target:

Gay Santas and LGBT-themed nutcrackers are set to line the shelves at Target this Christmas season as the retail giant makes another foray into the world of pride merchandise.

Erik Thompson, who markets himself as a “Senior LGBTQIA+ Segmentation Strategist & Pride Lead,” is Target’s latest leader for multicultural merchandising.

He announced his partnership with Target earlier this week in an Instagram post, citing the backlash and drop in sales that the retailer endured as a result of its Pride month merchandise featuring a “tuck-friendly” swimsuit.

Are you ready to stop shopping at Target yet?

But worried where you will go?

If you’d prefer to stop supporting this nonsense, I have the solution for you….👇

Where Do You Shop If You Leave Target? Details HERE…

The boycotts of woke corporations are working – even CNN is now acknowledging their power.

And actually, it’s not just Boycotts but BUYcotts that are having a real impact.

A Boycott means not shopping somewhere due to principles to make a statement.

But a BUYcott is really powerful.

A Buycott means you actually move your shopping somewhere else.

A Boycott is kind of like a strike at work.

Eventually most workers on strike just go right back to work at the same place.

But a Buycott means you move away and never return.

Now you can see why it’s so powerful!

And why even the top level execs in these big companies are starting to admit that we are winning.

And they’re getting scared.

Check out this clip from CNN below…

Of course, most of what CNN says here is nonsensical gaslighting about “inclusion” and how bad the right wing is.

Their typical drivel.

But some truth comes out in this segment — watch (transcript of highlights below):

From the video:

Christine Romans:  . . . I think it caught the C-Suites by surprise, this right wing culture warrior movement. Inclusion has always been good business for these companies. Their employees want it, their customers want it. It’s always been, uh, a good business. And on earnings calls for years, you’ve heard these CEOs and CFOs talk about inclusion, uh, diversity and equity and inclusion, and all of a sudden they’re a little bit quieter about that because they’re seeing these instances where their brand has been pillared for being inclusive. And so they’re trying to figure out how to tread this water.

Ron Brownstein: You know, these boycotts have to be seen, I think, as part of a broader movement. I mean, the Red States in many ways are building a nation within a nation on all sorts of issues . . . these companies, much as they wanna stay out of it, ultimately have to decide are they going to embrace the changing America, or they’re going to embrace this effort to, in effect, make America great again by going back to older rules and older values.

Christine Romans:  . . . How you respond by not giving in to the right wing attack mob, but acknowledging, you know, your position. I think that’s for C-Suites, that’s what they’ve gotta figure out. The rapid response for the communications teams has gotta be better. You could lose either way . . .

Ron Brownstein: The pressure is working on the C-suites — they’re pulling back.

The boycotts and buycotts ARE working!

So…that begs the question: if you stop shopping at Target, where should you go?

Down the street to another big box store probably owned by the same big investors and selling the same products owned by Blackrock, Vanguard and StateStreet?

NO!

But as usual, I’m here with solutions.

And it all ties into my new mission I started back in February.

Kind of perfect timing, huh?

The company I partnered with back in February already has many products that can replace the brands sold by woke corporations — and this company isn’t woke.

This company is:

— a family-owned manufacturer

— provides non-toxic products for every area of your home

— supports American jobs and families

— is committed to making their products in the USA

Not only that, but they’ve been doing it for over 35 years!

In fact, reports are that their founder was once on Barack Obama’s “Most Dangerous Conservatives” list.

So….why haven’t you heard of them?

Because they do ZERO mainstream advertising.

And it’s an Invite-Only club.

They stay off the radar — and find new customers through personal invitations only.

Oh, and people say the products are BETTER and often CHEAPER!

Here’s what their customers say:

“We love the store and shop there monthly for all our household needs! We especially love their nutritional products. My wife and I are in our 50’s and have never felt healthier and full of energy!“ – Eddie

“So far there are only a few items out of over 400 I can’t use. This is a miracle. Customer Service is outstanding. Like the way things used to be in America. I look forward to shopping & can’t even wait the full month.” – Missy

“I’m highly allergic to synthetic fragrance so buying “clean” products has always been nerve racking for me because you just never know how honest a company is with their ingredients. I can attest that this company is exactly who they say they are! About as clean and honest as it gets!” – Megg
