Are they boycotts or Trump broke-cotts?

Let that be a lesson. Don't venture in to that territory.
If a bisexual wants to buy a t shirt, it's on the shelf. If they don't, it's on the shelf.
It’s certainly not hurting Costco.
This. It's not hard to stay morally consistent with the stances you've taken and the customer base you've cultivated. The mistake is trying to have it both ways. They want liberal money (because MAGA is broke) but they also want Trumpism. Can't have both.

No, it's definitely a moral issue. I support the uplift of people of color because I understand that we live in a white supremacist society that will not do so without specific effort to combat its natural tendency toward white supremacy. If you think reverse racism is real, you do not understand racism, or likely do not care to. And I very much find your stance as immoral as I do ignorant.
Do not quote trolls.

It didn't hurt Target either until it did, correct?
You can't control all aspects of the landscape.
DEI is inherently racist and bigoted. It's just racist against an "approved" race.
Everyone knows exactly what it is, but is afraid to call it what it is. Approved racism and theft in the name of social justice to a minority.
It should be treated as the pariah it is and it should be systematically attacked and dismantled.
You don’t know what DEI is. You are spewing propaganda that you have heard. Practice critical thinking.

I’ve also quit Amazon, using bookshop.org for books and looking at who’s selling what I need on Amazon and then buying directly from the company instead of Amazon. I’m willing to pay more to avoid Amazon. There are lots of us out here.
I think we get an Amazon box every day. We get free shipping where delivery is never more than 12 hours from purchase. The convenience factor is off the charts.

Boycotts have minimal long-term impact.
If anything, companies mention them in regulatory filings as a convenient scapegoat to explain weaker than expected earnings or to signal to activists that they’re “listening.”

Some boycotts work, some don't. The boycotts against Target and Tesla (liberal) and Bud Light (conservative) worked.
The boycotts against Walmart, Nike, Disney (conservative) did not.

How do we know it's boycotts and not some other reasoning for Starbucks decline?
Because it’s been talked about extensively in the news. They had to get rid of their CEO and get a new one and he has not been able to turn it around either. Plus once everybody boy caught a day realize the coffee sucks so they were not missing out.

It's a hustle. It turns on its owners down the road like a pit bull.

Riiiight. People are conned by DEI, but definitely not by this grift-happy admin that is MAGA. Mmmkay.

Are you a white woman? If so, you benefited from DEI. Why does this keep having to be explained. If you want more people to be employed than able-bodied, cis white men (many of whom are mediocre resting on their privilege) then you might support DEI. 🤷🏻♀️

It always amazes me how brand friendly liberals are in the first place. Like I never really wanted any of that stuff in the first place. I've always tried to be commodity/off-brand shopper in the first place. I'm perfectly happy with a side of beef in the freezer.

The "stances" are not moral.
Don't put DEI on one side of the equation and Trump on the other. There's a whole lot of people against it, not just Trump and MAGA.
When people know what it is, they are uncomfortable with the reverse racism.
