Dr. Seuss
Is getting cancelled for being insensitive and raycist.
C&P
- Six Dr. Seuss books will no longer be published because of racist and insensitive imagery, Dr. Seuss Enterprises revealed on Tuesday
- The six books are: 'And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street', 'If I Ran the Zoo', 'McElligot's Pool', 'On Beyond Zebra!', 'Scrambled Eggs Super!', and 'The Cat's Quizzer'
- Dr. Seuss, whose real name is Theodor Geisel, had been the face of the annual Read Across America day for more than 20 years
- There has been increasing criticism in recent years over the way blacks, Asians and others are drawn in some of his most beloved children's books

It probably has something to do with Trump and Mrs. Trump.

In the AP article I read, they pointed out they were removing Little House on the Prairie books from the library because of how they portrayed native Americans.

Well they try to leave all the trailblazers whites heroes who are political correct for their time while removing and tearing down any old southern bigotry artists the best they can when they find it. Walt Disney old cartoons are not shown anymore Heck even Sanford and Son is racist and that is coming from black actors ? But of course All in family will run in reruns for ever.

The guy who wrote the books died in 1991 the books are now overseen by Dr. Seuss Enterprises which I am sure is a bunch of libtards who are woke and don't want to stir the pot like the my pillow guy.
It looks like Americans are not going to play:
C&P
- Dr. Seuss Enterprises, the company that preserves and protects his legacy, announced early Tuesday that the six books would no longer be published
- Almost immediately after the announcement, the prices of those books surged hundreds of dollars on eBay
- A vintage copy of 'If I Ran the Zoo' was priced at $510 after receiving 54 bids, while a copy of 'Scrambled Eggs Super!' was at $565 after 58 bids
- A copy of 'The Cat's Quizzer', which the seller marketed as brand new, was going for $630 after receiving 48 bids
- It came as outrage grew on social media among those who said Dr. Seuss was being 'canceled'
- Their anger was also directed at President Biden after he omitted Dr. Seuss from Read Across America Day
This is what got all the woke libtard PC jackasses uptight:

This image appears in the 1937 book 'And To Think I Saw It On Mulberry Street', which shows an illustration of a 'Chinaman who eats with sticks' - a caricatured picture of an Asian man with slits for eyes carrying a bowl of rice
This is from a book he wrote in 1937.

Face it guys ,we are the last generation of dinosaurs. The America of our time is on the fast track of liberalism and all are now "woke" and worshippers at the alter of political correctness . Twain , Faulkner,Hemingway ,Wilder ,Suess and all of the old Disney and Looney toons cartoons are all slated for the dustheap of oblivion . Objective based historical fact now takes back seat to feel good stories . We are doomed !

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Yep, they want to outlaw Huckleberry Finn and his friend Jim. Which tells me they never READ it. Jim was remarkably intelligent and compassionate, and the whole idea of him being in the story is to expose how wrong slavery is and help Huck grow past it.
If anything, that book should be read more, not less.

And yet rappers make millions expressing the notions of killing cops, and using words banished from the "white" vocabulary.
I blame Al Gore for all of this crap, if he hadn't invented the internet, it would have taken thousands of years for this cultural breakdown. 😴 💩
