The Democrats’ cancel culture is escalating fast
American Thinker ^ | 5 Mar, 2021 | Andrea Widburg

When someone first does something he knows is wrong, he does it carefully, under the radar, because he fears getting caught. If there are no consequences, he repeats the act, without guilt – and if he’s actually feted for his wrongdoing, he will soon act with complete impunity. That’s what we’re seeing when it comes to Democrats erasing everything they dislike – and what they most dislike is America and any opposition to their beliefs. This week, Democrats brazenly canceled Dr. Seuss, Trump’s CPAC speech, and the Mallard Fillmore cartoon strip. In their own minds, they are unstoppable.

SNIP

If you don’t believe that, just look at this little piece of racial propaganda from the Cartoon Network.

The Black cartoon character cannot be seen, first, as an individual. Instead, she must first be seen as a racial emblem. Likewise, the White character is defined first by the wrongs she’s impliedly done to Blacks.

Dr. Seuss, who would have been appalled by this racial obsession, must go. Sure, they’re starting with just six books now, but he’s got the infamous “asterisk” by his name, which will continue to devalue his standing. Seuss is in the way, not of progress, but of the Democrats’ regression to their racist roots.

The latest leftist corporation to jump on this bandwagon is eBay, which announced that it is “currently sweeping our marketplace” to remove the now-verboten six Dr. Seuss books. When Big Tech turns against you, you cannot exist either in digital format or old-fashioned paper.

That’s only six books. So what?

Well, what about an entire speech by the former President of the United States? That should be a big deal.

I think that the leftist goal is to eventually control everything people read, view on media and learn in school. The goal is to have compliant thought in a world where they are gods over everyone else.

Cortez was a brutal conquistador against native-Americans. Names like Cortez, DeSoto, Pizarro, Vasquez, Coronado, and Ponce de Leon should be erased from town names, town squares, county names, and street names.

As for erasing "Cortez", we could start with AOC.

Anything that Democrats think might fall in conservative column gets banned the Democrats fear values and and type of family traditions. Next reading to children will be racist.

Hispanics think the radicals will stop when whites are eliminated.

Uh, no, it's not just in their own minds. They pretty much are unstoppable. That's how a juggernaut works. Who's going to stop them? A Repugnant congress? SCOTUS? The White Nursing Home? The AG?

Conservative and beautiful Hot Springs Village, Arkansas, is in big trouble then. The main thoroughfare through the mountain community is DeSoto Blvd. Ponce de Leon Dr. is also a major artery. And these are the names of the big lakes: Lake DeSoto, Lake Coronado, Lake Balboa, and Lake Cortez. Good luck to the Cancel Culturalists if they try to impose their bullying way on this conservative bastion.

The global warming hoax, the kung flu panic porn, cancel culture, Pelosi's election bill -- all of them are bricks in the wall.

“Hispanics think the radicals will stop when whites are eliminated.”

Hispanics are not likely to quietly submit to black dominance. I’d love to see Arizona’s democrat senators go to west Tucson and explain why the people there need to pay more taxes to fund reparations for slavery! If they thought what happened on Jan 6 was a riot, they’d soon learn what a REAL riot looks like!

Current liberal cancel culture is about getting people to reflexively submit to now-dominant blacks. Hispanics won’t do that. Far too many whites will.

Re “Next reading to children will be racist.”
It already is. An “educator” published an article a while back saying that parents who read to their children are “advantaging them.”

I’m sorry I can’t find it, but it was published in England and posted on Free Republic. Someone who can search better could find it.

This ought to scare old-school, non-radical Dems out of their wits - but I bet they’ll still keep voting D.

Names like Cortez, DeSoto, Pizarro, Vasquez, Coronado, and Ponce de Leon...

That does it. I'll never buy another DeSoto.

I believe these 4 years will see a more rapid (moral and ideological deformation, and persecution of dissent) decline in scope and power then the last 40. By 2025 this “off the cliff” status and liberal empowerment will be all too evident.
