BIG TECH BOOK BURNING ..... AND BIDEN CANCELS DR. SEUSS TOO
'You can't make this stuff up': Outrage as eBay REMOVES listings for
 canceled Dr Seuss books 'because they glorify violence' but allows 
copies of Mein Kampf and Louis Farrakhan's books to be sold

Ebay on Thursday started removing listings for the six Dr Seuss books 
that are no longer going to be produced. They emailed people who had 
listed the books, saying that the post violated their 'offensive 
materials policy'. The company has not released any kind of statement 
about it, nor have they responded to inquiries. 
 
Now, they are being 
accused of censorship, virtue signaling and 'big tech book burning' by 
angry internet users who are demanding to know why they can't sell items
 that they own, just because Silicon Valley no longer thinks they are 
appropriate. 
 
 
Books including Hitler’s Mein Kampf (top right) and works 
by Louis Farrakhan (bottom right) - whose anti-Semitic remarks are well 
known - are still available. 
 
Dr Seuss Enterprises announced two days ago
 that it would no longer reprint six books which contained racist 
imagery. The books are 'And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street', 
'If I Ran the Zoo', 'McElligot's Pool', 'On Beyond Zebra!', 'Scrambled 
Eggs Super!', and 'The Cat's Quizzer'. 
 
It came after a school district 
removed them from its curriculum. 
 
President Joe Biden then snubbed Dr 
Seuss in his remarks about Read Across America Day, in a certified sign 
that they'd been 'canceled'. 
 
People then started buying up the suddenly 
limited-edition books on Amazon and other sites. Some then posted them 
on eBay for exorbitant prices to turn a profit and cash in on the row.
