Every time I see this unfold here, it points me to WWII. That's where the New World Order placed it's foundation and today it's close to fully completed. We're the nation of child genital/gender mutilation.

But M.L. Webb has just the thing for you: “The GayBCs,” a way for readers as young as
4 years old to learn every letter in the alphabet in terms of how it relates to LGBT issues.
It’s a REAL book (god help anyone who publicly says this may not be a good thing).
They would be publicly FB shamed, accused of “needing sensitivity training” and maybe even lose their job.

Well friends, you got Trouble!
In the city by the bay!
That's spelled with a T,

and that stands for Gay!
I say, you got Trouble!
From the city by the bay!
But I'll bet you they know how
to spell YMCA...

It's amazing how much noise a tiny percentage of sexual deviants can make and how much attention the media gives them.

Can anyone say the same about the Elmer Fudd character or any of that particular genre of cartoon characters? I think of them as something that a young child could see on TV or on any of the video devices that a young child might have, but not in the context of the public schools and learning to read.
Here's another "backgrounder"

That, would be your perspective. I have my own. Other's may not share it and that's alright but, it's still valid. IOWs if you want to find an issue, it's usually easy to do.

Even as an impressionable child growing up in the '50s and '60s watching all of those old cartoons, I knew Pepe Le Pew was an ass. The girls did not like him. If anything, the character taught generations of little boys not to act like that. Little Andy Cuomo must have been out stealing hubcaps while the cartoons were on.

"You may not be aware of this, but Dr. Seuss is a bit of a cliche, a tired and worn ambassador for children's literature," Soeiro wrote on Horn Book's Family Reading blog. "Another fact that many people are unaware of is that Dr. Seuss's illustrations are steeped in racist propaganda, caricatures, and harmful stereotypes. Open one of his books and you'll see the racist mockery in his art."

Stealing hubcaps came later. He was PePe La Pew.
