I wonder too.
Having just weaned myself off of Target for their being too chickenshit to stand up for what is right (they pre-complied with reduced DEI).
I now have money saved up to throw at whover leans in hard to any topic that pisses off the billionaire authoritarian complex.
Is this a joke? On a meme meant to say cis people do too little you are saving your money up to throw it at the next corporation that uses this as a marketing ploy?

I'm saying that even just incincerely signaling they're on the right side of history will determine my future shopping habits.
No corporation is good, but pretending to be decent is part of the bare minimum to get my money.
And few enough are even pretending to be decent, today, that I have money I could send to those that do. It's hard to find places to shop that are easy to feel good about.
As for anyone deciding whether I'm doing too little: They don't know my gender, what else I am dealing with in my life, or where and how much I donate, or protest.
My point is that Target's CEO lost massive money (more than I will ever see) for siding with the bigots, and we can make others hurt for it too.
Edit: Policing my own tone, to stay helpful and uplifting.
I bet you could find some queer-owned small businesses to support. Obviously that's still capitalism, but it's better than nothing
I'm aware of some, but recommendations are always welcome!
