Name one time in history when the "good guys" were the ones trying to erase hist

[pondwater]

Ah, so if someone uses the F-word in an exchange with you, it's a temper tantrum.

Good to know...

That's twice I tried. If you refuse to engage in discussion you're useless. I'm done with you, you may go now 👌👌👌

'You can't make this stuff up': Outrage as eBay REMOVES listings for the six canceled Dr Seuss books because they 'glorify violence' - but allows Mein Kampf and Louis Farrakhan's books to be sold

Selective cancel culture at its finest

I do not like this Biden Twit
I do not like him, not one bit
I do not like his creepy stare
He often makes me want to swear
I do not like erased historical knowledge
Or forgiving tuition to the college
I do not like his immigration views
Most times he is just very confused
I do not like the way he speaks
I do not like buying oil from Sheiks
I do not like his stance on war
Or most of the things that he stands for
I do not think that he is smart
He's really just a dumb old fart
He really doesn't have much use
Now that he's done killed Dr. Seuss

BRAVO! Not even interested in the politics of this. Just reading it as a DR. Seuss fan. Well done.

Are you guys asking for the government to step in and force these private companies to retract their actions, or what exactly?  It's unclear what the actual goal of the "cancel culture" whining is this time.

I don't even know what it has to do with Biden. It's not like he runs ebay or the seuss estate.

Biden started it by removing him from Read Across America Day. That wasn't Trump, Obama, Bush etc. It was all Biden.

Launched in 1998 by the NEA, Read Across America Day was created as a way to encourage children to read. It later developed into a year-round program, with special celebrations in March.

How is the day tied to Dr. Seuss?
Since its conception, the annual reading day has been held on or near March 2, which is Dr. Seuss's birthday. This year, it will be held on his 117th birthday.  And for many Americans, Read Across America Day is celebrated alongside his birthday.

No, he did not. That's is just factually incorrect.

This was what Biden said .. you can read it yourself rather than parroting what you hear in the conservative bubble:

He doesn't mention Dr Seuss by name. Not mentioning someone isn't removing them. Why should he mention Dr Seuss specifically. There are literally thousands of authors he also doesn't mention by name. You don't see anyone claiming Biden cancelled Shell Silverstein.

Fake outrage.
Fake culture war.
Fake "conservatives"

Not sure where using "science" as a reason to use the bathroom is banning history but then again I usually don't understand where you are coming from. Transgenderism is a mental illness that does not change someone's physical DNA no matter how much they want it to. To pretend otherwise is just silly.

I wouldn't call it a mental illness, but....

Bingo.  You can't change who you are no matter what you identify as.  Cross dressing is one thing.  Trying to change your body to the opposite gender is completely different.

I “love” seeing this blatant transphobia. There’s some really *chef’s kiss* nice and  strong ignorance in here.

[Spider-Dan]

It's the exact same playbook conservatives used to demonize gays in the '80s and '90s.

Homosexuality is a "mental illness," homosexual humans biologically cannot reproduce, blah blah blah.  Same tired song with slightly updated lyrics.

Not even close to being transphobic. I went to school with a guy who is now female including removing his junk. He went to somewhere in South America to have it done in the mid 90s so I'm guessing he was one of the ones leading the way. He sat with me in 97 at our 10th HS reunion so apparently I don't give off that bad a vibe. we now keep in touch on Facebook.  I treat everyone with respect but I will not lie to you and pretend it's not a  mental issue just to appease you when the facts point elsewhere.

Do research on what happens to people after having surgery. They still lead in the way of suicide. The excuse is bullying but while bullying has gotten less and minorities like Jewish people deal with it more than an other race the rates of suicide has gotten higher. They are never happy enough being male or female because they have other issues that aren't tied to a real or fake penis.

Once again: just because you are polite and friendly towards a trans person you know, that doesn't cancel out the fact that you insist they should be categorized as mentally ill.

There is this recurring theme amongst conservatives that "If I were a racist, I would have tried to burn my black neighbor's house down" or "If I were a homophobe, I would have tried to beat up my gay coworker."  That's not how it works.  You can be completely courteous towards a neighboring Muslim family... as you politically advocate for Muslims to be banned from our country.

It's not about whether you are nice to people, so you don't need to keep reminding us of how nice you are to people whose rights you would like to see curtailed.
