    Default The Cancellation Of Dr. Seuss Should Disturb You, Because You’re Next

    The Left Is Carrying Out a Cultural Revolution

    Dr. Seuss has been cancelled.

    Some of his work has been deemed racist, and we can’t have that.

    Today, the entity that oversees the estate of Theodor Seuss Geisel announced it would no longer publish six of Geisel’s books.

    The iconoclasm of the left’s culture war isn’t a side effect, it’s the point.

    Congrats, you are the third whiny baby to start a thread about this. You know why I know about it? Because you idiots won't shut the fuck up about your OH SO DRAMATIC outrage. The company decided to stop publishing blatantly racist images. OMG the horror!!!! A company made a business decision that reflected current cultural norms.

    This board has more whine than a Napa Valley vineyard.

    Nobody is good enough for UTOPIA, everyone get cancelled eventually, it is only the order of dismissal that is to be figured out.
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.

    Obama praised Dr. Suess when he did the same event and he never said anything was racist about it.

    What the fuck happened in four years that suddenly makes them racist?

    The left is not a monolith.
    Who's further left than I?

    I've constantly condemned those, however, who felt that anybody was entitled to a life of never having their feelings hurt.
    If that's what you feel that you deserve, than you must definitely curse your parents for having you.
    There may be, in fact, far lesser reasons than that for doing so, but that's definitely one.

    Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848

    Criticism of Dr. Seuss books has been going on since 2017 at least, and it has nothing to do with any U.S. president.

    Suess has not been canceled. The publisher stopped making 6 of his over 50 books because what was acceptable in the 40s and 50s no longer is. It depicted some people very badly. They had one where they suggested a guy in a turban should be in a zoo cage.
    Rightys can make big deals about anything when they want to. They are wrong again.
