Woman Calls Out ‘Deeply Offensive’ Target Sweater: Target Tells Her To Get Over It

In today’s world, people are quick to voice their opinions, especially when they feel offended. Recently, Target found itself at the center of controversy after a shopper, Reign Murphy, publicly criticized one of its holiday sweaters.

The sweater in question features the phrase: “OCD: Obsessive Christmas Disorder.” Murphy, taking offense to the message, shared her frustration on Twitter, stating that it was inappropriate and dismissive of those who live with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.

While OCD is indeed a serious mental health condition, reactions to the sweater were mixed. Many online agreed with Murphy, calling the sweater insensitive. However, others, including individuals with OCD, saw the humor and dismissed the outrage as overblown.

Target responded with a statement by representative Jessica Carlson, apologizing to those offended but clarifying that the product would remain on shelves. “The sweater was intended as a playful holiday item and not meant to offend anyone,” Carlson said.

This incident highlights the growing divide between humor and sensitivity in public discourse. While some see the sweater as harmless fun, others argue that mental health issues should never be trivialized. For now, the sweater stays, and Murphy—and others offended—will have to decide if they can continue shopping at Target.
