It's even better because, Rogan and Dr Seuss are still there and nothing really bad happened to them at all. This person you're replying to is acting like they're a crusader of truth against evil when all it is is people have complained a bit about something. Who is the one over-reacting?

> nothing really bad happened to them at all

Spotify has removed a bunch of episodes from his podcast. Some Dr. Seuss books got pulled because "racism".

Those who forget (or maybe just don't know) history are doomed to repeat it. It always starts with silencing dissenters. Just look at what happened in Canada.

But hey, I guess in stnmtn's world there is nothing worth complaining about unless people end up in the gulag. But by then it is too late.

> nothing really bad happened to them at all.

Besides becoming blacklisted topics in a number of circles, some of which perhaps you haven't been exposed to?
