I had no idea eggs of color were so thin-skinned.

[[[She added that it was nonetheless a “wise” move to cease printing the six books, saying “This is just a very difficult, painful time that we live in” and “we don’t want to upset anybody.”]]]
That’s it, throw in the towel to the cancel bots. Guess what, there won’t be a day that goes by that you don’t upset anybody in this current nut house we live in.

Another Seuss classic is The Star Bellied Sneeches. It may be the next to be banned since kids can not help but see a strong similarity between modern liberal race hustlers and Sylvester McMonkey McBean.

We have reached the point at which Dr. Seuss is subversive. We win.
I do not like them burning books
I do not like their dirty looks
I do not like the lies they tell
The tales they sell, their words from hell
I do not think them very wise
To tell the children all those lies
To make them take a load of sin
For just the color of their skin
I think it's time to tell them "NO!"
That it's a place they cannot go.
To: StoneWall Brigade
Just think the cancel culture is driven by big tech and bots/fake people. This is how our society is crumbling and how the last election was very easily stolen.

Shows this snowflake publisher, ‘the consumer is king!’Yes, it's a great idea to reward the snowflake publisher that made this ridiculous decision with massive sales. They're making more money than ever! What lesson, exactly, do you expect them to learn from this?

I cannot tell you the height of the sky
I cannot tell you what or when
I cannot tell you from a hen
Indeed
It is neither here nor there
Numbers are from everywhere
Just make them up to break the tedium
And one day you will be a Fake News Medium

Oh, to be a fly on the wall of the Whaling Bar of the La Valencia in the 1950s and listen to Ted Geisel and Raymond Chandler chat through the evening.

I was reading BEFORE I ever went to kindergarten. Why? A definite part of the answer is my Dr. Seuss books. I learned to read from my Dr. Seuss books. To deny these wonderfully imaginative books to kids is another loop of mind control. I could not get enough of the wondrous creatures Seuss dreamed up.
