Honestly, I forgot that kids series even existed until I saw this on the first page.

Earlier this month, the estate of Dr. Seuss said six of his books would no longer be published because they contained depictions of groups that were “hurtful and wrong,” including Asian Americans. The move drew immediate reaction on social media from those who called it another example of “cancel culture.”

I wonder what those books are?

And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street, McElligot's Pool, On Beyond Zebra!, If I Ran The Zoo, Scrambled Eggs Super, and The Cat's Quizzer.

I've only read two of those books mentioned (Mulberry Street and If I Ran The Zoo) and as enjoyable as they were I don't remember seeing a single stereotype.
 
This is the big globalist Jew push to turn the high income asian demographic into allies in the slo-mo genocide of whites. The asian elite will play along, to some degree, for their own benefit, but they likely realize that the sooner the whites are conclusively buried the sooner asian nations will be the primary focus of Jewish subversion.
 
Holy fuck scalpers are fast I looked it up and it said there were a bunch of 4 dollar listings all are sold out within seconds of me seeing the fucking things. There's now a flood of "new listings" on ebay 100 dollars and up. Fuck society.

Oh man, I remember this. Back in the day I posted a rant about it in response to a British-born Chinese (female) classmate, who went hell to leather on the idea that it was 'cultural appropriation.'

I pointed out that Asian businessmen for at least a century have been wearing suits and ties - ostensibly western, and more particularly, English formal attire - and nobody dares to point out this glaring, vast appropriation of culture on behalf of the Asian population.

Her response? 'That's different.'

It always is.

Should have brought up how if she weren't British born there'd be a 90% chance she wouldn't have had to complain because in the old country she would have had her skull caved in and buried in a rice paddy somewhere so her parents could try again.
 
The woke left is a force much more powerful than the conservative moral majority.

Be wary.
 
This book series is junkfood for kids.

That being said, and at the risk of powerleveling, I am so fucking glad I will never step foot in a classroom ever again in a professional manner. The Dumbing Down of America has been in place for a long time but having to teach CRT is an absolute no-fucking-go. To have to TEACH kids that they are racist is demonic. FUCK OFF
 
The fuck? I loved these books as a kid, especially the one with the mixed up word puzzle where the solution was to mix up the "drive slowly, children at play" sign to say "Drive over slow children" or something along those lines. Somehow I doubt these retards have a problem with a joke about kids getting run over, but OH GOD THE RACISM.
 
I've never touched the series because I always thought it was too gross, so I feel nothing.

That said, isn't fucking stupid to remove shit like ninjas from media because of "racism," when the point is that ninjas are fucking cool and results in people being drawn to other aspects of east asian culture? I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but the things that globohomo are calling "racist" or "anti-asian," by proxy, are shit like shaolin monks, samurai warriors, martial arts, geishas, chinese dragons, kaiju fights, chakras & chi, ancient chinese secrets, koi ponds, and etc. You know, just about everything badass, admirable, and awe inspiring that you could relate to Asia (i.e. common asian-related stereotypes). Westerners are fucking addicted to the continent because of shit like this and have been for centuries, whether it's accurate or not. Ban that, and basically all you have left is Tiananmen Square, North Korea, designated shitting streets, and k-pop.

You can't, because those Dr. Seuss books are banned from being sold on Ebay because they're hate speech. No seriously, they are in the "hate speech" list right next to the Turner Diaries and Mein Kampf. It's going to be funny when some list of banned hateful books is mostly children's books.

Call them the "Moral Minority" or something because studies show it's a single digit percentage of the population that supports this and they're curiously among the whitest political grouping in the country.

Sure but it's mostly white people from one of the most populous states doing all of this.
 
I can't believe they completely missed the scene in Captain Underpants and Preposterous Plight of the Purple Potty People where George and Harold rearrange the sign outside the cafeteria to say "Niggers tongue my anus," but I guess the alleged anti-Asian stuff is really what's in vogue right now
