Reading to two younger brothers, Seuss’s stories had too much whimsy and silliness for me. I felt vindicated when Seuss was later revealed as a hard Leftist.

I taught in Fairfax county...recently...LEAST conservative MOST liberal swamp I’ve ever seen. I don’t know what you are talking about. It has gotten worse than ever...IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE.

... and to celebrate this great Jewish authors birthday, Dr. Seuss own publishing company is banning 6 of his books! Instead of a cake with candles to blow out, they will do something more culturally appropriate, and celebrate by burning his books!

I don’t get the racist thing unless somehow the marxist creeps are inferring that Thing one and Thing Two were chimping out.

I don't want to defend an Obama, but the radical woke culture wasn't as prevalent then as it is now. Seuss wasn't cancelled at the time. Melania donating Dr Seuss books to libraries was probably a trigger to liberals that turned them on Seuss.

Indeed grievance mongering has became more of a sport than reality for some there many books that are like Dr Seuss books but with 180 degree in races and nobody says a thing.
Freedom of the press or not?.

Seuss was a democrat that supported wheelchair Roosevelt. Biden needs to educate himself.
