Other major brands, Target being a foremost example, have also noticeably softened or even removed their “Pride Month” campaigns, fearing that boycott of their own products could begin trending, while still trying at least token appeasement of the LGBT lobby by keeping up minimal “Pride” appearances, often through local events.

Starbucks has also of late come under the spotlight of controversy after reports that district managers have increasingly banned or removed Pride decor in various locations across the country, resulting in a backlash from its own workers.
