Honestly, I don't even know what this complaint is even about or in relation to. The reason I brought up the movie the Lorax is because some right wing talking heads had problems him writing the story (and a movie being made), and "indoctrinating our kids with environmentalism" (paraphrased). But the right wing wants to protect the "indoctrination of kids with racist messages".But no mention of the left's 'concerns, correct?
Liberal Mother Jones blogger Kate Sheppard wrote that environmentalists were “having a (rather justified) heart attack about the fact that ‘The Lorax’ is now being used to cross-promote a new SUV.” Mazda was using the movie to sell the new Seussified CX-5. One commercial featured a cartoon version of this SUV driving through a grove of Truffula trees. “The ads claim that the car is ‘Truffula tree friendly’ whatever that is supposed to mean,” she complained.
The film, she wrote, “includes a musical number … about how capitalism is awesome and everyone needs a Thneed,”
Well do you know Lou Dobbs and Bill O'Reilly are?Uhhhhh,.....Uproxx????????......who 'dat?
