‘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

Outraged Americans are demanding to know why eBay has banned them from reselling the six ‘offensive’ Dr Seuss books that are being canceled when copies of Hitler’s Mein Kampf and Louis Farrakhan – whose anti-Semitic remarks are well known – are still available.

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.

That’s not hard to figure out.

Dr. Seuss has been publicly canceled by the Left.

Louis Farrakhan is loved by Black Leftists, BLM, members of Congress like Ilhan Omar, and activists like Linda Sarsour.

Mein Kampf is one of the most popular books sold in the Middle East and is often quoted by radical Imams.

Lastly, it’s been made absolutely clear that the Left has no problem with, and often endorses anti-Semitism.

Then there is this:

YouTube Says ‘Risk Of Violence’ Is Still Too High To Lift Trump’s Ban

YouTube will eventually lift former President Donald Trump’s suspension, but the risk of violence remains too high to take any action for now, CEO Susan Wojcicki said Thursday, citing this week’s warnings from law enforcement about an extremist plot to breach the U.S. Capitol.

YouTube will lift Trump’s suspension “when we determine that the risk of violence has decreased,” Wojcicki said, and the company is monitoring law enforcement statements as well as activity on its site to track when it’s safe to let Trump back onto YouTube.

This includes Trump’s speech at CPAC.

If you think “when we determine that the risk of violence has decreased,” means “never,” you are probably 100% right.

This all came out yesterday.

We already know about Amazon Web Services dropping Parler and memory-holing a book critical of the transgender craze.

Amazon and eBay are the No. 1 and 3 internet retailers in America.

Google/Youtube is the largest search engine and video hosting site in the world..

These companies are functionally mega-monopolies and are engaged in aggressive censorship.

Once upon a time, this country would have broken up monopolies like this.

Today, since the monopolies benefit the party in power, they are going to stay.

Leftists who openly hate capitalism retort to complaints about this with a disingenuous defense of capitalism: “what you are, against capitalism, they are a private company if you don’t like it build your own Amazon.”  Except that is impossible when going up against a monopoly.  They know that which is why they say it.  That’s the point, they don’t need to ban anything by law when they let the monopolies that support them decide not to sell something

How did censorship come to America, slowly first, then all at once.

I have bad news for the Space Jam fans

Last night before hitting the sack, I see that Lola Bunny is trending in Twitter so I check it out.

The talk is that they got rid of the sexy Lola in favor of a more sporty Lola.  But that ain’t it.

On the left we have Lola Bunny and on the right Lalo Bunny, a Mexican Transgender bunny who used to play in Jalisco league before trying out for the NBA and failing. He did a bit of Thai porn before being discovered by a Hollywood agent and hired for the movie.

I wonder if he knows how to weld?

Family says county kicked them off their own land for living in RV

Many families are coming up with creative ways to make ends meet during this pandemic. But one man’s plan highlights a growing community issue: who is the true master of your land? Channel 2 anchor Sophia Choi started investigating, and learned the answer may come from a judge.

Choi spent weeks looking into this after hearing from Tim Leslie of Polk County. His plan was to buy land and live off it, after losing his job due to the pandemic.

He bought the land, but the county says he can’t live there.

Leslie has chickens, goats, a vegetable garden and plenty of space to roam around in the fresh air.

“We plan on building a forever home here and, you know, growing old and giving it to our kids,” Tim Leslie said.

Leslie says that’s because the county forced them to move after slapping them with a citation for living in their recreational vehicle on their own property.

“This is a question about property rights,” said attorney Ari Bargil with the Institute for Justice. “Mr. Leslie owns the property on which he situated his camper. And as a result, he has the right to live there, as long as he’s not harming anybody through his use.”

Leslie says he checked the county codes before buying the land. He showed Choi the section that allows for “single-family dwellings” in an agricultural district, under which his property is designated. Under the county’s definition for “dwellings” it specifically includes “manufactured homes, mobile homes, industrialized buildings, and recreational vehicles.”

Leslie showed Choi the citation. The violation is listed as “living in campers/RV.”

Leslie hoped to save money by living off his land. Instead, he says it’s costing him money and livestock.

Because he is unable to stay overnight, he’s losing animals to coyotes, despite making daily, hourlong round trips from the RV park.

Having lived in rural parts of the country, it’s not strange to see someone buy land and live in a mobile home on it during the construction of a more permanent home.

I don’t know why Polk County is picking on this guy.

He already has a lawyer, but if he starts a GoFundMe for a used Komatsu, I’ll kick in a couple of bucks.
