I can't wait for major players to grow a pair and tell the whiners to STFU. The majority of Americans are tired of this shit but we are the polite majority and often afraid to support our beliefs.

Lately this country seems to be overwhelmed with a bunch of worthless assholes who have absolutely nothing better to do with themselves than constantly search for the most minuscule things that they think minorities should be offended about.

I don't recall any actual minorities complaining about how racist pancake syrup, rice, or children's books, etc are. So maybe these guilty white privileged twats time would be better spent volunteering at a homeless shelter, or a food bank.

Or better yet, just hide in their basement & STFU.

I was pleasantly surprised to see our local elementary public school just had a Dr. Seuss party and the kids dressed up like some of the characters! I’m shocked that the school officials haven’t lost their collective minds like others in this country have....good for them!

Nah, these people aren't completely mentally retarded. Nah, not at all. The push back on this BS needs to start right now, and it needs to be unwavering and aggressive.

This is so ironic considering who Geisel was.

How fitting the left eat their own.

I just saw on the news that Amazon changed one of their logos. It was a piece of packaging tape over their smile logo.
Someone said the jagged edge looked like Hitler's mustache! The world is going mad.

You can no longer refer to your television as a “color TV”...

From now on, you must use “video viewer incorporating the tints and hues of all members of the visible spectrum”

Throw Shakespeare on the bonfire of burning books too.

From the Washington Times -

Woke teachers want Shakespeare cut from curriculum: 'This is about White supremacy'

The train of Progressive insanity is picking up speed.
