Liz Peek: CPAC blasts cancel culture – could the attacks on Dr. Seuss be the tipping point?

Even the famously left-wing Bill Maher is calling for an end to the excess, telling his TV audience, "Cancel culture is real, it’s insane and it’s growing exponentially." 

If you haven’t heard, Dr. Seuss is being canceled. The same boneheads who claim that the "mister" in Mr. Potato Head is overly "exclusive," that Aunt Jemima syrup encouraged racial stereotyping, that math is a vestige of White supremacy and that gender reveal parties are "transphobic," want you to find racism in the pages of "Hop on Pop."  As is often the case, the perpetrators of this nonsense appear ignorant of the facts. This is absurd, of course, and makes Democrats who applaud such virtue signaling look stupid. But the urge to condemn people who challenge the woke mob and cancel every icon of American life – the founders of our nation, the historical monuments that adorn our cities, the books we grew up reading – has reached a tipping point.
