This is a foul collection of dire comments. I find it pretty asinine that the the personal choice of private individuals about how to distribute IP has brought out this vitriol. That is their choice, and I’m gobsmacked at the moral panic here. Don’t you Milton Freidman conservatives believe in the Right to Choose?
Oh you thought Biden did this by edict? You’ve just swallowed some KBG propaganda. You think that classic literature is being burned at the stake? Go look at those titles and decide for yourself.
From where I stand, the comments in this threat represents the worst of fear-mongering, retrograde thought. Ought we resurrect Briar Rabbit, because it was unfairly cancelled?
I’ll be laying atop the pile of books when the Firemen come to burn them. That isn’t this, and that isn’t now. Rush Limbaugh was out crying about apocalypse of Political Correctness since the early 90’s. It was a messaging strategy to defend the power of his demographic against moral pressures. I can’t believe this pervades the HN ethos. Rush was Wrong.
For the record I am black, and I don’t particularly care for being depicted as a zoo animal in children’s books. I’m not demanding those books be ‘disappeared’, but I appreciate the Seuss estate’s choice to retire these titles, and defend eBay’s ability to choose which products they distribute on their marketplace. How did a movement who’s message was ‘stop police from killing unarmed black people with impunity’ unleash this farce?
