The sketchiest thing about the Dr. Seuss depublishing is that it was _announced_.
The publisher could just have stopped printing those books, and most people would never know. But they wanted to get points for doing so.
The weirdest thing about the Dr. Seuss depublishing is that many of the examples are just that the book contains characters who are nonwhite.
Caricatures, sure, but everything in the book is a caricature. This is more like the removal of Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben.

Screenshoting it is a Tort and I can sue you for doing so.

Good news: upon reflection, she thinks it might be two _weeks_.
To a first approximation, the 20th Century was about Communism.
Everything that happened was either trying to get to Communism, or respond to Communism, or fight against Communism, or provide an alternative to Communism, or understand why Communism failed.
The best game rule ever:
If you are Vin Diesel, go ahead and take an 8 in everything.
Today, everyone on Twitter is an expert on:
Stage Design.
Ancient Runes.
Nazi Symbols (in the rare, also-ran category.)
Me: why can't I find zantac anywhere?
http://Drugs.com: A cancer-causing impurity found in many ranitidine medications may increase to unacceptable levels over time and when ranitidine is stored at high temperatures.
Me: oh. Well then.
Good news: my Mom got vaccinated.
Bad news: she seems to think she has to wait _two months_ before she's safe.
Does anyone know where this idea comes from?

FreeDOM implies freeHTML.
Put these together, and at the end of the day, the vast majority of political activity is empty gestures that sum up to <Yay us! Boo them!>
