'It gets better. Can I go home now?'
In case you didn’t know, Target actually donates money to conservative politicians who work against schools to have the ability to create Gay/Straight alliances. Talk about hypocrisy!
Thankfully the video is excruciatingly boring, so nobody is going to watch it. Is it me, or do the employees in this video look like they are being held hostage? Like someone is pointing a gun at them forcing them to say “It gets better.”
Here’s my response to Target: if you want to stop bullying, start with yourself.
Stop acting like a bully and stop supporting anti-gay politicians and groups with your company’s money. Then and only then does it truly get better.
Here’s some screenshots of the employees looking like they are being held hostage by terrorists:

AMEN, I SAY! Tell it!
Okay that picture of the blonde lady just made me bust out laughing at work.
Glad to know the site isn’t being blocked there! Yeah when I saw her, I HAD to make this post.
The funniest comment I’ve heard so far is “it gets better allright, you get to grow up, work at Target for $7.50 an hour!”
They should better donate money to Feast of Fun!
As someone wrote on Youtube, “pinkwash” that is. Just like companies like to greenwash their products these days in order to appear more environment friendly although they produce products which heavily pollute the environment.
Still another part of me is glad that our political currency has gotten to the point where companies “pinkwash” themselves out of trouble, instead of just acting like jerks 100% of the time. I guess that’s progress of some kind, isn’t it?
True, it is also a sign of progress.
When someone is remembering details, their eyes move to the right (your right). When someone is making something up, their eyes move to the left. It’s usually reversed for lefties. Watch the first two “actors” it couldn’t be anymore obvious.
Oh you’re so RIGHT!
don’t be a bully. this is definitely progress. kudos to the brave employees
I’m being a bully by pointing out the hypocrisy in Target’s participation in It Gets Better? Seriously, fuck them and fuck you too.
