Dated? Indeed.
Offensive? Perhaps.
Needs Removal? Doubtful...

How is this image racist? The dude is smiling!! His face doesn't even look Chinese to me.

Eating rice - all Asians do it.
Wear those hats? Some still do (out in the fields).

What should the image be? A Hong Kong businessman wearing a mask? LOL Insane.

SJWs are looking for anything they can change to make some people feel better while pissing off the majority of everyone else. Fuck SJWs at this point seriously.

Company makes decision to stop selling 6 books - lots of butthurt whites go bananas even though they never read those books anyways.

That about sums it up?

Yes and no - similar outrage recently over removing the "Mister" from "Potato Head".
(Being a former "Mister" somebody I found this doubly offensive.)

But it's a straw that broke the camel's back situation. The constant drip drip drip of outrage over media created decades ago.

I believe it's because of one simple reason: money. The SJWs have learned how to monetize outrage. Instagram "influencers" and YouTube "stars" have learned that the more views they get = the more ad revenue that gets deposited into their accounts. So guess what? They scour history looking for anything they can get outraged over so their clicks (and bank accounts) go up.

I personally have only read 2 of the problematic Seuss books. But I'll tell you what: I bet 99% of the people outraged over the insensitivity never read a single Seuss book, ever.

I'll be interested to see how that pans out. OK, great publicity and free press short-term, with lots of 'woke' backslapping for all involved, but at the end of the day, they sell those toys to make MONEY...

If you have a Mr and a Mrs, then you can theoretically sell 2 of them, as a matching pair. Kid has one, enjoys it and asks for the 'other' one of the 'set'...

Just make one edition and you have halved your market. So are they gonna double the cost to cover the loss?

Admittly, Im not avidly following the story, but I wonder if you'll hear that in the future, 'due to public demand' it will go back to the two of them again?

The problem is that you don't know how this game is played.
Government, and big business are constantly in bed with
each other. Corporations lobby government and politicians
suck up to businessmen for money. Business and government
support each other far more than they disagree

Absolutely no government official would be stupid enough to
pass any law that re-writes history. However, it's easy for
them to get one of their corporate friends to censor a book
or two. Then shortly thereafter other large corporations are
doing it too.

It's all about controlling the public and telling it what to do
and what to think. The people in command despise you and
me. In fact, they have less respect for us than they do for
rabid animals.

Anyway, I'm not sure you have the mental capacity to understand what's going on here, but you seem to be very emotional about it anyway... so I'll dumb it down for you:

"We" can show whatever we want. "We" can also NOT show whatever we want.

Nobody forced Dr Suess to portray asians and whoever else the way they did in those books. They did that on their own. Their own decision. Nobody forced Dr Suess to remove that imagery. They also did that on their own. Their own decision.

YOU seem to only have a huge problem with one of those decisions and are caught up in a bunch of hysterical end of the world bullfuckery about it. Why?

Since we are correcting... it's not "THEY". Dr Suse or Theodore Geisel (spelling) is the one that wrote it. There is no "they" on this. Just one man and a story in a time when this was the norm. The "THEY" only comes in when the corporate machine takes over :winkwink:

Remember a time there was a man that stood up to government, public scrutiny and took a bullet to protect his right to freedom of expression. You all honored him with a post on his recent passing... Know who I mean? He is rolling over in his grave over this shit I'm sure.

Like it or not, the books are art, just as this porn is considered art. Some like it, some find it degrading to women... should it be stopped? removed?

Or, should we, as adults, be able to choose what we see and read? Especially in a country that claims to be so free. :winkwink:

You either suck at gaslighting or have a severe mental inability to understand what's actually going on.

You, as an adult, have the right to choose what you see and read. You don't, however, have the right to stop Dr Suess Enterprises from removing stuff from their publications if they feel like it. You don't have to like what they decide to remove, but you can't stop them. Their company, their decision. Free country. Free market capitalism.

Nobody canceled Dr Suess. They made a business decision on their own which turned out to be great marketing thanks to the high functioning mentally challenged having a major titty attack about this particular decision. Basically you guys are just mad (or got tricked into getting mad) at their decision for reasons you won't admit (or don't realize) and want to take away their ability to make their own decisions... and are creating huge imaginary gaslighting lies and having fake outrages & hate filled false meltdowns about it to gain support for your serial-failing agenda... that you either won't admit to partaking in or don't have the mental ability to realize you are a part of.

Its hilarious. The butthurt is real.

WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY did they "choose" to edit Dr. Seuss???????????

Dude you make it sound like it was their own corporate decision, made in a vacuum one day just because they felt like it, and we are all bashing the poor company for making a decision.

What a wonderfully constructed fantasy land you live in dude!

The reason they edited and canceled these books: corporate fear that the SJWs would pounce on them thus REDUCING their revenue. They didn't remove it because THE CORPORATION found it offensive. This was a preemptive strike. Watch how many corporations voluntarily censor themselves in a pathetic attempt to keep SJWs happy, which is impossible and WILL NOT keep the revenue flowing (in fact, the opposite).

I, for one, call it SELF censorship. Being a journalist and, you know, not a dumbass, I KNOW the only entity that can officially do something called "censorship" is a government, not a corporation.

HOWEVER: corporations WILL "self-censor" if they feel they are offending some of their clients/customers. You DO get that, yes? So why would they pull those books? Hmmm? Because they are scared a segment of their customer base will be offended and thus stop buying their products.

Still with me here?

SO if the ONLY thing these overly-sensitive, cucked-out beta corps care about is m-o-n-e-y and losing some of it because SJWs may not buy their shit, guess the only way to teach these corps a lesson? BINGO!! Stop giving them money and THEN they can decide which side to pander to.

In short: SJWs will not, and have never, bought jack shit. So their threats of canceling a product are ultimately meaningless. Offended white (male) consumers? They "vote" with their pocketbooks.

In a year or less these corps will do a MAJOR about-face and stop all this woke madness. Otherwise they will be out of business, period. Then what? :321GFY

I'm sure corporations are not going to stop practicing their freedoms and rights to do what they want and remove what they feel is racist imagery from their products if they feel like it because of a few offended old white males with pocketbooks crying and threatening to cancel them bro.

You have no idea of the "group I'm in" dude. And believe me, you would be the very last person invited in anyway.

I am pointing out what many, many others are beginning to notice. That much of our popular culture and history is being re-written before our eyes in a pathetic attempt to whitewash the past and not learn from it, just so overly sensitive people looking to monetize their outrage can feel better in the moment.

Being a German, with your country's Nazi past, I would think you would be a big fan of NOT forgetting the past and learning from it so as NOT to repeat it, eh? Maybe not.

Bowing to SJW pressure to change anything they find offensive is not "freedom" you twit. It's caving in to ridiculous demands that, little by little, chip away at our society, history and culture.

This also diminishes the really offensive stuff, like the 'N' word, abuse towards gays, transgenders and women of all colors, police brutality, etc. Why are they changing Mr. Potato Head, Elmer Fudd holding a gun, putting warning messages on The Muppet Show...it's getting fucking ridiculous already.

Remember... the "Me Too" movement is taking down politicians, movie executives.... better hope they do not come after adult. I can see them making a case and getting the social justice warriors up you asses.

Just saying.

So surprised that people in adult are for changing and banning art. Especially the history in this business and people that have, and probably still are, trying to shut it down.

1. I spent yesterday going to 2nd stores and old book
shops. I managed to get several copies of the banned
books and already posted them to FB marketplace.
(I'll easily make at least $1k)

2. Today's governments use corporations to do their
dirty work. That way they can claim that they're
protecting the constitution while still destroying your
rights.

I didn't read the thread really, but the company itself decided to discontinue printing of 6 titles. Not really "cancel culture". In fact, it reads to me like "great marketing". Their name is all over the press now. :)

But I guess if you want to be outraged by a decision a private company made with zero relevancy to your life, go for it.

This also diminishes the really offensive stuff, like the 'N' word, abuse towards gays, transgenders and women of all colors, police brutality, etc. Why are they changing Mr. Potato Head, Elmer Fudd holding a gun, putting warning messages on The Muppet Show...it's getting fucking ridiculous already.

It's freedom because the company chose to do those things on their own. Nobody forced them to. No legislation was passed banning it. It's literally the free market.

I live in Southwest Missouri. I can easily go to the flea market and buy shirts with confederate flags and fuck n words on it all day, too.

Fake outrage by grown adults is pathetic.

They bowed to pressure, as I said. That is not "freedom" no matter what you call it. It is pressure, coercion and corporate fear of these SJW nutters targeting them. Sports team names, old Disney characters, books written decades ago, cartoons that have been around for decades, on and on it goes....when does it stop?

When all of history is sanitized and no one anywhere ever feels bad about a word, or an image, or a song? And who should be outraged, only children?

But hey enjoy the confederate flags. LOL

So you say, despite them saying otherwise.

I guess we could say the same thing about your changing your name from MISTER Peabody with zero regard to your own claims about the decision.

You hypocritical sellout! :upsidedow

I'm sure that all of you have heard of the expression
"ADAPT OR DIE."

Therefore, regardless of where all this bullshit is
heading, the only question that all of you must
ask yourselves is:
"WILL YOU ADAPT OR WILL YOU DIE?!"

Sooner or later they're going to censor porn on the
Internet but they'll still make deals with MindGeek and
therefore, hand them a de facto monopoly. How will any
of you make a dollar in that type of business environment?
