The introductory sentence is also suspect:

Walmart is getting skewered on social media after unveiling its “Pride Always” collection prior to what society has deemed “pride month” in June, as shoppers express disappointment, irritation, and disgust.

No, what the DNC has deemed 'pride month'.

Pride Always

"A rainbow-coloured boot, stamping on a human face. Forever."

I remember a time when Walmart was thought of as a super conservative hillbilly store.

The "People of Walmart" website was a favorite of shitlib redditors to mock Trump supporters for years. Didn't Peter Strzok text his colluding girlfriend about "smelling the people" in a Walmart he visited? Walmart doesn't even need the ESG money, this is purely ideological, trying to shed the brand like NASCAR and sports.

I still remember when the Walmart opened in my home town in the early 90s the gigantic banner hanging from the ceiling as you walked through the entrance that read "We Buy American So You Can Too"

How quickly things change. And it wasn't just Walmart's fault either: NAFTA was entering its modern form around that time.

It's now the store of screaming Shaniquas and their walking welfare checks after they drove the CVS in the ghettos out of business.

If I had the chance (not American so don't fully know the environment commercially there) I'd be trying to shop more at independent stores or with food getting direct from farmers where available.

These types of stores have been hurting competition through centralization for years like Microsoft have been it's just people only realise it now because they are growing increasingly incompetent thanks to ESG and DEI.

Not impossible at all, since they are so efficient, which is how they got so big, small disturbances cut right to the heart of giant corporations.

A missed earnings target is enough to start a cascade, not even a loss just a missed earnings target is enough to disrupt share prices. Which means the board had to start doing "stuff" which if you're head of a well oiled efficient machine, is unlikely to improve.

VERY few things I ever buy from Walmart anymore. I certainly don't get my groceries there. Last thing I bought from them was casual shoes (unfortunately, they are the ONLY place with them near me, and shoes are something you really do need to try on before you purchase) and printer ink.

The Walmart where I buy printer ink has all the cartridges locked up.

The pajeets working there are insufferable to deal with to get one unlocked.

Half the time, the one manning the counter says "I can't help you, I only sell phones".

Why would you subject your feet to $20 Walmart shoes? Don't cheap out on things that keep you off the ground: shoes, mattresses, chairs, tires, etc.

I've been surprised that Walmart's house brand of groceries is often less of a "science experiment" than similar major name brand items. Which given their (deserved) reputation for being cut-throat on forcing suppliers to cut costs surprised me when I started noticing it. They'd advertise "no corn syrup", they'd use olive oil instead of seed oils for certain things, etc...

This isn't universal by any stretch, and you should be skeptical; but at least where I am Walmart has gotten leaps and bounds better for groceries than it was a few years ago..

I went to an ALDI once and wasn't impressed. Laundry detergent was okay, but everything else you can tell how cheap it is, even the red-label, "strong" toilet paper.

Walmart got a huge influx of shoppers from Target because of this shit. I guess they don’t need any more money.

Pride is the worst of the seven deadly sins, of course globohomos celebrate it at every opportunity.

They also co-oped the rainbow, God's promise to never flood the world again to purge the degenerates.

If only there were a viral challenge for pre-teens/teens to knock over/vandalize any and all colors of the rainbow.

Considering that would be counter-culture today should spread like californication fire. No prosecution because 'think of the children'!

But of course that would be too smart a larp for the non-anon on the light side.

The social media companies would put a stop to that pretty fast.

tiktok might be ok with it. Just adds to the crash n burn that China is happy to let the enlightened west nose dive into.

Besides, teens tend to find a way.

Haven't been in a Wal-Mart since New Year's Eve in 2018. In that one trip, I almost got mugged by an illegal, had what I'm assuming was an alien in a human suit try to steal my cart, and had a drunk in an electric wheelchair drive up to me, hold out a package of meat and yell "I AIN'T GOT MUH GLASSES, IS DIS POISON?!?!?!?"

Walmart is an interesting micro-chasm of how high-trust the community it's in is.

Mine is pretty normal, but I've been to some where merchandise is strewn all over the place, where basic things like hair-gel is under lock and key, when you go there at certain times you see "people of Walmart"-tier things/people.

I figure if I ever see any of those things at my local Walmart I need to seriously re-evaluate whether I want to continue living where I live or if I'm far enough away to be insulated from it.

If your Walmart ever gets rid of the self-checkout kiosks for wagie cashiers, you're officially in a shithole.

You could become a Walmart safari tour operator. Make some cash, while also doing your weekly shopping. :')

I hate all this because you glorify everything in this world except what God has created to be from the beginning, which is a family, man married to a woman and their children!!

man married to a woman... and their children? Didn't realize you lot agree with those trolls...
