I understand why a totalitarian government needs to ban books but, Dr. Seuss? I mean WTF is this administration thinking? Or are they thinking at all? What will ultimately happen is those books will increase in value so much that republishing will be a no brainier. And Dr Seuss already holds the #2 spot for dead celebrity earners closely behind Micheal Jackson. Children's books racist, my ass. Cancel Culture must end. Progressives started it and only they can end it

They are nuts along with being stupid.

I :heart; Q

The government passed a law banning Dr. Suess? Can you provide text of the law. I would like to read it. Sounds egregious. Or maybe a link to an executive order?

You two be done seen about everything, when you see your elephant crash. See what I did there. I Invoked Dumbo's racist depiction of crows as a historical wrong that now gets labeled as such. Disney still lets you see Dumbo but they warn you there is a scene with a bunch of crows that used racist stereotypes of black people, exaggerated dialect and outdated images. It happened. Disney is now saying that even though it happened, it was wrong. This is a warning on this movie to show you that we know it's wrong but it still exists. That's the same recognition in the old Dr Seuss books.

Book banning? This place makes me laugh.

Fake news. No books have been banned, just lots of faux outrage.

But it's a great time for pugs to pick up copy of The Lorax, which they tried very much to denounce, if not ban, a few years back.

Capitalism is based on the ridiculous notion that you can enjoy limitless growth in a closed, finite system.

It's all a distraction. The establishment wants us to get back to arguing about statues, men using women's restrooms, whether Mr. Potato Head has a gender, and Dr. Seuss so they can go back to randomly bombing people in foreign countries while we are too busy arguing with each other to care. The establishment is back, baby! Four years of Trump made them focus all their efforts on him, despite him overseeing a pretty peaceful Presidency on the world stage. Back to the old ways. Biden can blame others for the problems he helped create over the past 50 years and continue to forward a failed agenda.

When stuff like this pops up, the first thing you should start doing is trying to figure out what they are trying to divert attention from.

Nobody, including Democrats, thinks banning anything Dr. Seuss wrote is a priority.

Yes, Trump served his purpose as a smoke screen for McConnell very well. Who is that exactly? It's the OANN crowd that is always raging about their participation losers trophies from the Jim Crow era. Who posted about that here? Which news organizations were outrages by that decision a company about degendering their toy that stores its body parts in its ass? Are those entities "the establishent". Look at the piecenik. Fucking crocodile tears. Trump isn't establishment but he put Mnuchin, Wheeler, Pruitt, Ross, etc... in those key cabinet posts. Hmm. Was he just a useful idiot smokescreen then?

Lies, grifting and attacks on the capital are fine, but for fuck sake, the trans people that no one has ever seen are the real problem!!

You clowns crack me up!!

I was right.

There were school districts that did ban The Lorax and there was plenty of outrage among the FOX crowd about the Lorax film a couple of years ago.

Man, Z.

I get it.

When half of your books in your library are arbitrarily wiped out. Sux.

At least you got Where's Waldo.

Feels.

God damn these qotard $itches are a sad lot. You'd think them losing their orange boyfriend by a vast majority of American votes would be cause to reflect but no.

Whining about Dr Seuss when the Doctor himself acknowledged he could have been kinder?

hey pos $itches you read twitler's books?

You dumb, you really really dumb.

The gubbmint didn't do it, Biden didn't do it, and cancel culture didn't begin with progressives. You seem to forget our long history of censorship and cancelling by conservatives, especially conservative Christians.

Anyhow, Dr. Seuss Enterprises pulled the books themselves. Not the gubbmint' you fucktard.

Liberal trolls and white college kids are the ones pushing this stuff. The rest of you go along with it because that's what you do.

Zeus is a white college kid? I thought he was an old man trying to figure out why he can't pull the corners of his eyes back, stick out his front teeth, and exaggerate mispronounced consonants.

-------------------------

Zeus isn't pushing it. He is reacting to it. Show me the Asian and Jewish people who say that they have been hurt by these Dr. Seuss books and need them banned. There aren't any. It is being pushed out there by liberal trolls, the media runs wild with it, people react to it, and Biden gets to sit in his wheelchair, with a blanket on his lap, playing Mario Kart while his handlers get the cover they need to move forward the shit that they don't want most people paying attention to.

I was right.

So far, it is only the left that has been pushing this stuff. The right isn't trying to prevent any voices from being heard and is by and large supporting people's rights to be free. It is the left that tends to believe that people are too dumb to take in information and make decisions for themselves. After reading many of Cole's posts, I think they may be onto something with many of their constituents.

The left wants to focus on statues, Dr. Seuss, men taking shits in womens bathrooms, the gender of Mr. Potato Head, making sure that only white ethnic groups are represented as sports mascots, and making sure that their kids only see white fictional spokespeople when they go to a grocery store. The left doesn't even care about most of this stuff. They do it to troll people. Up to this point, the right hasn't really engaged in this type of activity but don't be surprised when the right tries to troll you by targeting childrens books with reference to trans-people or something like that.

In the long run, this is a good thing. You don't spit into the wind, you don't tug on Superman's cape, you don't pull the mask off of the Lone Ranger and you don'tmess around with Dr. Seuss. This will pay dividends in 2022 and 2024.

All these people who told us that Trump was a Russian spy for 4 years and were so eager to jump onboard with the Smullet debacle and tried to tell everyone that a handle for garage door at a Nascar event was supposed to be a noose really make me laugh when they run around accusing everyone of being conspiracy theorists. It is as if you honestly don't see how stupid you look.

I'm not sure how to get this through your thick skull, but nothing was banned, the producers of the books did it on their own accord.

Say it with me three times:

Nothing was banned, the publisher did it.

Nothing was banned, the publisher did it.

Nothing was banned, the publisher did it.

Now this one:

It was not the government.

It was not the government.

It was not the government.

Got it now?

No, of course you don't. Dope.

Removed from schools, removed from blunders book reading, sounds similar to a banning! Dope!!

The right wasn't so enthusiastic about individual rights when athletes took a knee, interesting turn around. As far as bathrooms, Seuss and Potato heads, I've only seen the right freaking out about that stuff. Open a can of it, really gets the dogs barking.



-------------------------

I supported the right of athletes to take a knee but their employers are still their employers. I can't go to work and tell my boss that I have decided I'm going to start giving the middle finger to paying customers as part of a political thing and expect them to be cool with that.

Yeah, you are seeing the right react to it because liberal trolls put it out there. It is rage-bait. I honestly don't care that much right now about the books. I'm going to be pissed when it happens to the left regarding something they hold dear and we have hear the the caterwauling that is sure to ensue. If you guys support normalizing this type of action then
when it eventually happens to you, you can't be shocked or come with the "OH, HOW DARE YOU!!!"s without everyone looking at you like a complete f'ing fool.

Do you support the right of a manufacturer to manufacture the product they think appeals to customers, or not manufacture a product that they think would be offensive?

Does doing that violate the rights of the customer who desires the offensive product?

Lets be real, the things you see being done aren't being done for moral reasons, they are being done for economic ones. Educated and intelligent people don't buy children's books that feature characters referred to as "Chinamen".

Elect all the trumps you want, the right is still losing the culture war.
