Damnit... that is ****ed up...

I'm pissed. When I was a little kid, I thought she was super hot (I'm sorry... I was a kid, what can I say)... damn, that's totally messed up. Did anyone actually ASK the Indian tribes if they were bothered? I used to spend more time checking out the tub of butter than eating my pancakes when I was a kid. This **** is going too far...

The list of retro bigoteering continues.

Now Dr. Seuss

The author, who was a liberal Democrat, is now on the gallows because of the Woke madness.

No.

"Fake News" is actually very "real" about what's going on here with the Dr Seuss books.

Dr Seuss is not being led "to the gallows."

Dr Seuss Enterprises will no longer publish 6 of his many (more than 60) illustrated children's books.

Earlier this week, a school district in Virginia made headlines for ALLEGEDLY banning books by Dr. Seuss.

BUT Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS), located in Ashburn, said it is NOT BANNING BOOKS by the famous children's author -- it's just discouraging a connection between "Read Across America Day," which was created to get kids excited about reading, and Dr. Seuss' birthday. Both fall on March 2, and have often been "historically connected" to each other, the district said in a statement.



It's not hard to scroll fairly quickly through one or more of these reports and get an actual sense of what it's about.

Some yellow-skinned chap
Kind of a slant-eyed Jap
His nose he did blew
Gave me the dreaded Kung Flu

These woke wankers seem to forget that books like these reflect the norms of the time they were written, NOT 2021 leftist values.

At least SOME still have common sense (language warning in that vid)

What I learned as a kid about the LAnd of Lakes girl and why she's hot. Sexiest knees ever. You just bend the box also.
