Yes.

It's because of critical theory that people now read books so they can write their own books "critiquing" the one they read using some pet theory. People are now making money writing bullshit about some bullshit relating to books written for children.

The most repugnant part is their claim to being "original" in content.

Not in the least, it gave schizophrenics the outlet they needed

The cat in the hat exceeds the black-white dichotomy. The text goes so far to make him unable to even be defined by catness. In the end, the hat is truly central to his identity. Dr. Seuss here is, of course, building on an idea he first picked up in James Joyce's Ulysses.

What is the critical interpretation of the vug under the rug?

Is this a meme or did /ourguy/ Dr Seuss really say he was influenced by Joyce

Get a load of this capitalist complaining about the mechanisms of capitalist development

Where are "they" claiming to be original? Who is this "they"?
People wrote books about other books well before critical theory and I very much doubt they write them now to make money.

The Jew behind the (you).

No. It can certainly be valuable. But as with most decent things, they're vulnerable to being perverted by stupid people
