well done. this is absurd. its merely a historically and currently accurate portrayal of culture. I am grad student getting my MSW from Tulane. I am a big lib and so is everyone else there. However, I warn them that continuing to perpetuate cancel culture and this type of false outrage bullshite will only continue to hurt any lib cause and divide our country. When you say too much you say nothing. Great post

According to whom? That is the question. Give in to the mob...is that we wee are to do?
Or, over time, and as Jordan Peterson has explained, society will decide to not use words or not to use/but certain books (in this case) because society as a whole has decided such. That is the way this should work. Not a mandate by any governing agency.
However, you cannot simply delete history. If you do not like something then you should do away with it in your home. Your rules are not my rules (necessarily).

For the life of me, other than the "slant eye" comment, I don't see what they are considering racist in these pages.

The only one that is remotely offensive is the monkeys for black people. The hilarious part to me is these same woke people think we evolved from apes so it immediately cancels anything offensive out IMO.
There's a text image floating around that sums it up perfectly.
"In history, when have the people censoring speech and burning/cancelling books ever the good guys?"

Quick sketch. You still know they’re black with out the blackface.
I see where you are coming from, but I ask this seriously, when you look at your sketch, do you really not see that you would get crucified because of it? Big lips, wide nose, white skin.....stereotypes and whitewash. You would get hammered.

JFC who is upset about this
Conservatives snowflakes are the ones who are upset.
Dr Seuss Enterprises are the ones who made this decision. I dont belive anyone forced them to do so.
But butthurt conservative are melting hard over 6 books no longer being published, when there are 54 other books by him.

You’re a fricking moron. The point is if you bend the knee at all they will not stop. They can’t be appeased.
Your ilk are cancer. They consume and destroy at any sign of weakness.
These easy targets are just an in. Then they’ll cancel Seuss for the caricatures he did of orientals (commissioned by the US government, while we were at fricking war with them) in propaganda.
They’ll attack his personal life. They are scum sucking leeches who cannot create, only corrupt and destroy.
You spawn of Morgoth. Fie and be damned ye!

How does this make you feel?

You are a book burner.

So upset that a "committee" was appointed to "study" the determinantal and harmful material, prompting an estate to take action by ceasing to publish material, which in turn is setting off a virtue signaling race in the media by numerous participants, including now a major theme park corporation. Oh no, wait, those aren't "conservatives".

Oh, you know, the usual. Weak minded pussies
Just takes one big company to tell these whiners to frick off to show the others that this extremely small group of morons are not a threat to their businesses.

i don't know why we keep acknowledging them. like "aight YOU think this book is racist. cool" then we continue our day.
It's not that simple. They are pressuring booksellers to not carry the books. And if they refuse they are crushing them.

You can't possibly think that African one was good representation.
