    so, youve obviously never seen his political cartoons depicting japanese people???

    how would you explain them? a moral blind spot?

     

    Actually, I hadn't seen those (still havent) and didnt know about them. After a little research, I stand corrected. Funny how you can ruin a lot of good work with a mistake like that...maybe he was trying to make up for those WWII cartoons with his later work. I have switched Theodore Geisel to my 'What a Cunt!' List.

    .Dr Suess was not a war monger, but actually a liberal anti-racist,anti-fascist activist and most all of his stories contain thinly-veiled references to the plight of the oppressed, the nature of man's greed and so forth...Google it up....

     

    -snip- "However, many Dr. Seuss's whimsical children's books also contain serious themes. Yertle the Turtle, for example, is a cautionary tale against dictators. The Lorax contains a strong environmental message. The Sneetches is a plea for racial tolerance. Horton Hears a Who is a parable about the American Occupation of Japan. And The Butter Battle Book pillories the Cold War and nuclear deterrence. Even the Cat in the Hat's famous red-and-white-striped hat has a political predecessor in the top hat Uncle Sam wears in Dr. Seuss's wartime cartoons. (left: What This Country Needs Is a Good Mental Insecticide, Political cartoon by Dr. Seuss, from the newspaper PM,June 11, 1942)

     

    Some of these characters, such as a Sneetch-type creature and a prototype of Yertle the Turtle, made their first appearance not in Dr. Seuss's children's books, but in the some 400 political cartoons he drew for PM, a left-wing daily newspaper published in New York from 1940 to 1948. Dr. Seuss worked as an editorial cartoonist for the paper from 1941 to 1943, drawing cartoons that lambasted isolationism, racism, anti-Semitism, Hitler, Mussolini, the Japanese, and the conservative forces in American politics.
