Target faces backlash over removal of LGBTQ+ products during Pride Month.

TL;DR Summary
Actress Rachelle Lefevre criticized Target for moving its "PRIDE" collection to the back of the store after backlash from conservatives. Lefevre accused the retailer of "trying to erase" LGBTQ+ people and engaging in "performative allyship." Target suffered a $9 billion market loss in just one week following the uproar over its LGBTQ+-friendly clothing line. The backlash included violent demonstrations, and Target moved the collection to avoid a "Bud Light situation." Lefevre encouraged LGBTQ+ individuals to find joy in their daily lives despite the criticism.
