National File:
Six books from the popular children’s book author Theodor Seuss “Ted” Geisel, better known under his pen name, Dr. Seuss, were permanently canceled today by the foundation that holds the copyright. Almost immediately, the prices of the books skyrocketed on eBay, as Americans sought to obtain the now-banned reading materials.
Earlier today it was announced that several books by the legendary children’s book author, Dr. Seuss, have been canceled effective today, and will no longer be printed due to the alleged racism contained within the tomes. Already, prices of the books have skyrocketed on eBay, the popular internet auction websites, as Americans seek to obtain a copy of the now banned books.
A rare 1937 copy of “And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street”, perhaps the most well known of the newly banned books, can be bought for $4,400. The seller, however, will handle the shipping expense. Other options include 1964 copies for $449 and $204.99. All of these are marked “New Listing” by Amazon, indicating they likely entered the market after the ban. read more
And now we are essentially book burning.
Between books and baseball cards I can’t believe all the money I’ve thrown away.
What will Biden read to children for a sniff?
It’s so sad to watch stupid people in charge of things lose their sanity in a way that impacts completely innocent people.

I am surprised this one is still available. I had it a few years ago but gave it away, just ordered another copy. This one has some of the seriously jingoistic stuff he did. Which also means that this was not hidden. Everyone knew for decades that he had done a lot of racist stuff. So why no need to cancel Dr. Seuss until now??? No reason. Just next on the list.

It may go against the concept of private property, but anyone who submits to cancel culture should lose copywrite and trademark protection to anyone brave enough to stand up for free expression. For example Dr Seuss fans should be able to take over the copywrite and publish the books. Likewise an Ice cream company should be free to produce Eskimo pies.
Kermit, I SWEAR I was thinking the EXACT same thing earlier today.
You cower to the woke mob, that intellectual property becomes free/fair game.
If it were my family I wouldn’t go down without a fight to the death.
Fucking cowards!
Maybe we need to have a Federal law that makes it a felony to be in possession of a racist book.
Wonder which Congressional representatives we could suggest to and get the ball rolling?
And right on time the Babylon Bee does it again with one of todays articles, Penguin Random House announces revised copy of Dr. Seuss book ” Oh, the people you cancel.” You can’t make this stuff up anymore because because the left is so totally batshit unhinged with hatred and everything that offends them is racist.

…really, anything perverted will do…there’s much, MUCH worse out there, but the schools will have it in online kindergarten soon enough, so no need to bring it up NOW, but rest assured that books that groom children for molesting will be a HUGE growth industry under the Pedophile fake president’s puppet “administration”, and Democrats and Muslims everywhere will enthusiastically wallow in it…
Like Cuomo’s issue of unwanted sexual advances not mass murder in nursing homes, I think the race issue with Dr. Suess is a sidestep from the real issue: A Persons a Person, no Matter how Small.

They better put these Dr. Seuss books in a secure place at public libraries because canceling and banning them will make them sure targets for book theft. I’ve checked these books out before from the library when my kids were little and read them to my kids. Does that make me a retroactive racist for exposing my kids to Dr. Seuss when they were growing up?
C’mon. Learn from the Left.
Give the name, address and contact info of the nutter “Foundation” so we can spread it around, call it nasty things and kick it.
You’ll have to buy them on the black market. Oops… did I really say that? I told my wife this shit is truly Outer Limits stuff.
