The Dark Side Of Suess/ Cancel Culture Again

[Halfnutz]

I really think this is getting out of control.
Have any of you have seen the movie "The Dark Side OF Suess" Documentary of him covering WW2 propaganda films he produced for the DOD?
Great movie with alot of things that would never see the light of day in todays "Kinder, gentler woke BS"! He also collaborated with many of the Warner Bros artists at this time and alot of the characters have a strong resemblence and style of the later WB popular cartoons.

6 Dr. Seuss books won't be published for racist images

Six Dr. Seuss books — including “And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street” and “If I Ran the Zoo” — will stop being published because of racist and insensitive imagery, the business that preserves and protects the author's legacy said Tuesday. “These books portray people in ways that are...

Where do I find that, not on Netflix or prime

These people cannot be reasoned with. They are so narrow minded and obtuse it is pointless to argue with them. They will not stop until they are made to understand the value of liberty and freedom of expression.

War, fire, and destruction is the only thing they understand, and it will have to be visited upon them in heaping helpings before they wake the fuck up and join us in this, singular reality.

All history is being wiped out so that they can now teach racism and hatred to children under the guise of "racialism", "anti-racism", and "white fragility".

 

[Halfnutz]

Not the movie but some of his stuff: I only share it as a historical link.

he was a GREAT American and cancel culture is the most insidious and dangerous movement since communism

 

[Halfnutz]

Where do I find that, not on Netflix or prime

I haven't found a streaming outlet that has the movie.
I originally watched it at an independant theater in town about 5-6 years ago. Great place, they served beer. Took my young teen/adult kids to it, because like me they were read to often from Dr. Suess. Also watched the Documentary "Lemmy" (Motorhead). Miss that place, out of bussiness for several years now despite the great venue.

You have to be seriously fucked in the head to think Seuss has racial undertones. WTF is wrong with these people?

We are in the middle of 1984, but we are heading quickly for the full on Fahrenheit 451 where all books eventually were banned because every book eventually offended at least one person.

You are repeating yourself.

 

[BullGear]

We are in a special time in our country's history. We are soon going to have to make a dicision. Do we let the Left completely ruin this country or do we stop it. It's just about that time, doncha think?

- "A person's a person, no matter how small." -Dr. Suess. One of my favorite quotes from him.

 

[Fig]

Mine too.

 

[supercorndogs]

You, "think its getting out of control"

Have you perhaps been living under a rock for the last 15 years?

Now that the train is up to speed we are worried about it. Should have never let it leave the station.

 

[Animal357]

The country is in a freefall. The takers now outnumber the makers, the stupid now outnumber the smart, the corrupt now outnumber the honest.

This is unsurvivable.

 

[TurboTrout]

Saying there is a dark side would mean there is a bright side?

I don’t think there is a bright side


Best bet it to just do what you would do anyways, say what you would anyways, laugh at the Karen’s and try to help remind folks that in their mindless effort of taking everything someone has away, well that means you just made a angry person with nothing left to lose.

Also a great reminder of why having social media is probably worse than a having a STD lol

 

[BullGear]

I can't wait to see a day where the library will have just 1 book. 1984 and it will be in the "how to" section.

This is the starting point to ban the Bible !

Maybe others thought it, but you put it out there.

This is the starting point to ban the Bible !

I'm sure it will be quickly replaced with the "new improved, inclusive, compassionate, corrected" official version that the leaders of organised religion will quickly accept (in order to keep their money coming in).

 

[TurboTrout]

This is the starting point to ban the Bible !

They already removed “god” from tons of things, banned prayer etc.

Personally I’m not superstitious and find it funny how people grow out of believing in Santa, but still believe in Jesus.

That said, religion has pretty much always been a tool to keep the peasants in line, and keep them tribal, each “team” has their own, not allowing other “gods” is quite transparent in its logic.

These days, I’d say since the 50s, and majorly ramping up in the early 90s forward, the state has become more of a religious institution, like what the church was back in the old king days of England.
Just like any religion, it is intolerant of other competing religions. Things make much more sense when you view the state and statists as such.

Guess who is reading Dr Seuss to my kids @ school today? Hint- He is a County Mayor but he could still choke slam your ass.

 

[Mwalex]

If you are white or conservative or believe in the 1A/2A or believe in some God or think there are only two real genders or think that docking dicks is wrong you are going to be cancelled. It is only a matter of time, unless something changes.

Wouldn’t it be better if mom or dad read it to them vs a government official?

Just stay out of their ghettos and you can’t get “canceled”

I mean if you’re on Facebook or other liberal areas, that’s like hating hood rats and buying a home in Compton.

Don’t work for liberal statists, I mean if someone somehow connected me with who I work for and bitched, they’d get laughed at and hung up on, or maybe hung up on then laughed at.

Leave the left to itself and let them embrace the solutions we all know don’t work, biggest factor is making them think we are what they imagine us to be, so they’ll stay in their dirty cities and not spread.

Mom & Dad read plenty of books to the kids..... Its just nice i have a Mayor who is not scared of the woke crowd.

So apparently this is the original version of the "offensive image" in And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street:

And this is the version used for the story in my copy of Six By Seuss:

So it was already changed to be less offensive/stereotypical. But are you telling me that Chinese people don't eat with chopsticks? I'm pretty sure they do.

And I'm pretty sure people in that part of the world wear conical hats too...

Published first in 1937, It was probably a pretty feckin' accurate rendition, and probably for the next 70 or so years.

An old story rebranded.
The Kings new clothes.
If you don't abide by the pretend offense, you can't see the clothes.
If you don't abide by the gender choice, you can't see the clothes.
This version those who can't see are being persecuted by the force of law.

So there may come a point where my house will be raided by .GOV to arrest me for my 3 book cases full of
history and sci/fi . Plus books and video of classic cartoons and kids books .
The goal is to make everyone a criminal , so the state can arrest anyone and everyone at will !

 

[RUTGERS95]

[brianf]

I actually think this latest idiocy help the cause, along with letting men play women’s sports.

these books are not the same as canceling a history book for its betrayal of characters or because of the author owning slaves etc

this is a time honored (personally I think they are crap and never like them) books touted by the left for 50 years.

the cancel culture is like a snake eating it’s tail. We just have to let it run it’s course and they will implode.

 

[Fig]

It never has. They will keep burning till they’re the only ones left and they’ve enslaved everyone else. This certainly isn’t Nazism, but it bears all sorts of striking resemblances.

How could all those people be complicit in the murder of millions? Absolute moral certainty. This is what the left is selling, and it is the opposite of liberalism. It is totalitarianism through and through, and it will not stop till it is stopped. You’ll see.

Yes it would. But in a majority of the households, in the present time, there's a better than 50% chance that there's only one parent. And a better than that chance the guardian thinks an iPad or tv is the extent of their interaction with the child.
But you already know that.

Why this isn’t marketed and pushed half as hard as vaccines for things that have a over 99.9% survival rate is crazy.

As your kid hits puberty have him get a shot, wants to have a kid of his own later, go get it reversed, easy.

Look at the oops babies,

What percentage of criminals (I mean real crimes with real victims) were oops babies?

What percentage of stupid people and poor people were oops babies?

Keep in mind every person eats, shits and ends up in a human garbage dump, if folks actually care about crime, poverty, the environment, etc, REALLY easy to make a major dent in it. But there are some pretty obvious reasons the big gov/corp ruling class don’t want that.

I'm in agreement with you on this. I think a real hard "reset", will need to happen. Something about "learning the hard way", makes a person think twice, before they make the same mistake again. We need to put the Earth back on it's axis again. Mac

 

[DarnYankeeUSMC]

We're back to the two parent household. They account for very few underage pregnancies and they have a better chance of being above the poverty line.
Do you believe that a single mom with five babies and four baby daddy is going to get something like that for their children? Those children are raised by the streets and the teachers when they go to school/ if they go to school

Sure, just subsidize the procedure, I’d be HAPPY to have my taxes used for that, and do some marketing, look how many idiots wear masks and are bribing people for shots for Covid, and that birth control injection I linked to is a WAAAAAY easier and better product to push.

There are a good deal of dumb people who stick it out together after they get knocked up, point is we have the technology to make getting knocked up a conscious choice, not a “ahhh damn Todd, I think I’m preggo” type thing
