Blah blah blah!!! So over it!!!

Meanwhile Cuties is still on Netflix That Should Be BANNED! And never Made to view ever again!

This is stupid. People stop being snowflakes.

You would think that in today’s world this type of nonsense wouldn’t be. If it was a book about people that like the same sex it would have been gone years ago. Why is it that these things are still around?

This 💩 is getting ridiculous

I guess instead of manwich ,it will have to be changed to gender neutral in the stores next.

I guess Mr Potato Head is next to go for being hurtful, racist , etc.

This is soooooo stupid, geesh ! Grow up everyone!!!!

The silver lining is that Trumpsters are now buying up Suess books and reading them to their children. Not realizing that they all have a strong anti fascist message. They are training their children to be antifa.

Is there a difference between burning books and canceling books?

COVID-19 IS A SCAM❗❗️❗️David Icke . com

Idiocy.

We had the book wars in the 70s in WV so not surprised at all

Ridiculous! We can't erase history.

I read Mulberry to my 5yr old a couple weeks ago and was like dayum

And Kevin said he will continue to read it.....🙄

Man wait til woke twitter finds out about Schindlers list and American history x :/

So many other icons of racist society also deserve to be chucked

Next thing you know, they're gonna say that Aunt Jemima is a racist brand!

This is a private enterprise that has a board that makes BUSINESS decisions within free market/ capitalism, the back bone of Republican Conservatism. So why is this a left cancel culture thing? It seems more a GOP we want to control everything BS politicizing. GOPLeader sucks!

Why reposting this? It wasn't news 5 days ago, it still isn't news now. Tips: 1. Stop trying to stir up outrage over nonsense. 2. Report real facts, without clickbait headlines. 3. Either that or take the 'News' label out of the name. Thank you, have a nice day.

Bull Sht. We should deport every Black white hating racist. And send them back to Africa where they can protest the reading of Huckleberry Fin and Gone with the Wind. Black people are the real virus not Covid-19. Black people are killing the United States of America. Just saying

trumpers are very upset

Pretty sure the sales were in the toilet anyway and this is really a marketing strategy to make collector items for select conservatives that enjoy books that portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong so they can pretend they are champions of their first amendment rights.

Damn shame they’re offended by the Berenstain Bears too (He Bear She Bear)! 🙄🤦‍♂️. Had to bid on one on eBay! Sold out everywhere! 🤦‍♂️

Next we start burning books?

So does this mean we can get our French fries back instead of freedom fries.

In no way shape or form cancel culture.

Hi my name is Uncle Sam I am, Mad at cancelled Seuss I am I am, But wait a minute, A problem innit, That he was cancelled by his own fam?

There is no greater joy than having financial stability and a life free of debts, that’s why I keep tweeting a comment about gigsfrid

Makes sense

Look at the Amazon top 10 books right now. This was their ultimate goal. Amazing PR work tbh.
