Are people that upset over 6 of Dr. Seuss' books being removed from shelves for controversial imagery?

I'm not upset, but I think we should clarify what's happened here. The books are not being removed from shelves (not by any overarching action), Dr. Seuss' estate has taken a few older books (that to my knowledge were never among his most popular) out of print, which any estate that owns publishing rights is free to do for any reason. This specific action isn't so bothersome as much as this general trend of "pre-emptive" cancelation. If "wokeism" isn't hegemonic, why is so much kowtowing to it? Erasing the past isn't reckoning with the past.
