Had no idea a boycott was happening.

    Putting a time limit on a boycott undermines the boycott.

    Saw this with the Loblaw’s boycott here in Canada, it was very ineffective because they can just wait it out.

      Yes, just don’t shop at Target.
      It’s strange that people forget that businesses like Target getting rid of DEI also gets rid of many disability act initiatives. There should be more outrage than just a boycott.

      From the point of view of the boycotter, having a time limit helps mentally.

      I think more people are ready to think “just buy somewhere else for a bit”. If it becomes “forever” might seem daunting.

      My two cents, not sure if this is the real reason.
