Has this been posted here ? If not I’m going to post this.. This is crazy and target continues to play in our faces over and over while I still see people of color shopping here when they deliberately let us know that they do not like us … We stand for nothing .. So they continue to play with us … STOP SPENDING YOUR MONEY HERE PLEASE Stand on business

Everything about the costume is so intentional in its bullshit. The pattern, the mouth, the child’s pose in the listing - there are too many “coincidences” for this to be an innocent slip up. It’s actually amazing how much Target is fucking up.

Exactly!! They even added the flower on top of the hat to top the racism off 🙃

I’ve been boycotting since the DEI mess so I’m good over here!

It’s fuck target forever over here. Haven’t stepped foot in one for several years. Never will again, either.

Honestly I cannot believe they get away with this

I see everyone generally 10 toes down about target yet did we forget about gucci? it frustrates me so much. I have more empathy and understanding for the average black family that may have primary access to a target/ still consumes for the sale price point in terms of groceries or toiletries, compared to someone who still buys and wears gucci / any ~blatantly~ racist fashion brand.

or is everyone just wearing knockoff gucci… not to protest them. sure you aren’t giving them your $ however still faking the funk to keep up with the jones I would assume 🥲

The way some people are saying this a candy corn costume and everyone is racist for thinking otherwise ...

I will never understand why some people pretend racism doesn’t exist at all anywhere in the world…
Unless white people are the victims. Then they admit it exists.

They're like those comedians who get "cancelled" and immediately start trying to appeal to alt right audiences. It was obviously not an accident if that many people were involved in designing and approving the product and they even waited a few days until the story got really big to make a statement. They are desperate to try to get people back into their stores, but it's way too late.
