    I've always taken the stance that its not racist unless its intended to be racist. It might be offensive or in poor taste to someone, but that doesn't make it racist.

    I read through things and can only smile.
    World of difference between racism, and characterization ( though profiling can be).

    Around 50-60 years ago, thinking of women as being barefoot and pregnant was perfectly acceptable. Is it today? I bet most of the manly men here wouldn't dare to tell their spouses women should be barefoot and pregnant..............................Or seen but not heard...

    Again don't know the books in question well enough. But if some of the images contain lashings ( perfectly acceptable once upon a time) and or standing over Asian with guns to their heads....
    Odd, many here don't have a problem with childrens books portraying that, but do have problems with young kids learning about sex in grade school

    Technically any show older then 5 years you will find something racist in it. In fact even today's tv and movies I can find lot's that is so called racist.
    But see because people don't realize it right now they refuse to acknowledge it. I will find the report on my office PC on Monday that I wrote, she was dismissed with caused and did not get her 2 weeks and is now banned from Government contracts. I turned the tables on her. Essentially I destroyed her for life and to our Liberal friends on here yes I was quite proud of it.

    Last Summer I did mange to get a SJW fired from her job. This was a person who I helped with her car and everything then one day she freaked out on "White Men" for no reason.

    Some people need to unbunch their pantaloons. No need to get all triggered and engage in a bout of recreational outrage over a silly children's book. The world will survive quite nicely without some Dr. Seuss books containing pictures that some might find offensive.

    Exactly. Or forcing gender reassignment surgery on young children...
    The best part about being a "conspiracy theorist" is not having myocarditis.
