Nobody has to read Dr. Seuss if they don't want to. But it's worth remembering that his books were so popular with children in large part because of the crazy stories and funny pictures. Learning to read was very boring until The Cat in the Hat and Green Eggs and Ham came along in the 1950s. Problematizing everything that's different, weird, or uncomfortable won't get us any place worth exclaiming over.

but attacking shit from 70+ years ago is borderline retarded but they already did that with gone with the wind.

It's almost as if cultural norms aren't fixed and change with the passage of time, but people encouraging cancel culture are going out of their way to find things (rollingstone.com) to be offended at on the behest of someone else.

"If I ran the zoo"; I'd put niggers in cages (news.cnrs.fr) wasn't a page in a Dr. Seuss book from my recollection.

The lorax

Yep, pozzed "greens" books won't be banned. Also, why ban anything at all? If you don't like it, don't read it. It's not recommended reading or apart of required learning from the department of education. It's designed to make reading fun for children, which niggers are appalling at.
