Time Text
Now, they're canceling Dr.
Seuss, guys. They're canceling Dr.
Seuss. The books and the stories that we grew up to, the books and stories that I know that I read to my children, are effectively being canceled.
President Biden has actually removed mentions of Dr.
Seuss from Read Across America Day.
It was obviously a staple of those days for presidents before him.
And they're being removed because of quote-unquote racial undertones.
Rather than learning from anything, Rather than overthinking it, they're just going to remove it.
In fact, six Dr. Seuss books are going to stop being even published.
But what I want to know is, if Dr.
Seuss is all of a sudden magically racist in 2021, why wasn't he racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic, transphobic, everyphobic imaginable under Barack Obama?
Why is that? Look at some of these pictures and videos that are out there online.
Here's Michelle Obama and they're celebrating with Thing 1 and Thing 2.
The great characters from The Cat in the Hat.
Why was it not racist and xenophobic then?
Why is it only now that it's a problem?
And the answer is simple, guys.
Because if you give the radical woke left an inch, they will take a mile.
They will never stop.
There is no ration or reason and there is nothing at all that is sacred.
This is what we have to deal with in America today.
Obama even said according to like Bustle Magazine and implied that Dr.
Seuss is the best teacher.
He talked about how if everyone read some of those books they could solve a lot of the world's problems.
Obama was quoted as saying quote pretty much all of the stuff you need to know is in Dr.
Seuss. This is Obama.
This is Eight plus years ago.
It's not like we're talking about it being in an entirely different era or century or anything.
There's pictures From the Read Across America days in the White House again with the Obamas and people dressed up as the characters from Dr.
Seuss. Why wasn't it racist then but it is now?
Because we've lost our minds.
Because we've allowed the radical left to take over every aspect of our lives.
Because we've allowed cancel culture to Dictate what we do and how we respond and how we deal with absolute lunacy.
And in the face of that lunacy, guys, we've made a career out of just folding, out of giving up.
But this is the insanity, folks.
Let's preserve some of the goodness and the decency from some of these great books, because who knows what's next?
You know, you saw Mr. Potato Head, and you saw the Muppets.
They're all gone in the last 10 days.
I mean, look at how quick the snowball It's building up, going down this hill with cancel culture and what's happening.
Don't let it happen.
Push back. Call out the nonsense aggressively.
And maybe we can put an end to it.
Because if we don't put it in check, it's never going to stop, folks.
Nothing will be left.
