Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street and building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the party is always right.

Dr. Seuss Books Deemed Offensive Will Be Delisted From eBay (where Mein Kampf can still be found, complain right-wingers)

Hitler was an environmentalist, ethical vegetarian, a Socialist who passed laws against animal cruelty (first time in history), and he never called someone the n-word. Down with Dr. Seuss!

Online marketplace eBay Inc. said it is working to prevent the resale of six Dr. Seuss books that were pulled earlier this week by the company in charge of the late author's works because they contain offensive imagery.

"EBay is currently sweeping our marketplace to remove these items", a spokeswoman for the company said in an email. New copies of the six books were no longer for sale online at major retailers such as Barnes & Noble on Thursday afternoon, which put eBay among the most prominent platforms for the books to be sold.

Hundreds of listings for the six books could be found on the platform as of Thursday morning, though the number appeared to be lower than it was on Wednesday evening. The eBay spokeswoman said that it would take some time to review seller listings and that the company was monitoring newly published listings.
