The comments in response to this are still really angry and unaccepting. I think this is bad - if someone or something does something you like, give them positive reinforcement, don't nitpick about how their motivations weren't pure enough

Yesterday, we removed a book from Target.com based on feedback we received. We want to offer a broad assortment for our guests and are adding this book back to Target.com. We apologize for any confusion.

I view all corporations as spineless and soulless and expecting them to actually have principles is a fantasyland thing for me. I'm fine with corporations operating without would, treat them like you would an animal

> treat them like you would an animal they're not run by animals, it doesn't make any sense to treat them as such. PR departments are made of humans and understand human interactions (hopefully) and respond to incentives.
