Target is in trouble. And while it's easy to get lost in the company's recent (poor) handling of American culture war narratives that cast it as too woke or too willing to cave to online fascists, the root of Target's problems runs deep. Don't get me wrong the massive consumer boycotts from Black organizers have done damage.
