Not to be pedantic, but that is definitionally a cancellation. There were other books in the Soviet Union while they were banning books. This did not make their book bannings a simple case of "cultural change." — PolitiTweet.org

That "cultural change" might require a few book burnings here and there. But even book burnings aren't cancellation! Direct quote: "While six of [Seuss'] books will no longer be published, the remaining three dozen or so will still be on bookshelves. That isn't a cancellation." — PolitiTweet.org

It's not just Cillizza. In a particularly egregious column from Phillip Bump of WaPo, the argument is made that book burning Dr. Seuss works isn't actually cancel culture, it's again -- that magic word! -- just "change." — PolitiTweet.org
