@Lou At the time of this post, there is one slightly joking comment related to the name, with the others (of the 33 total) praising his acting but acknowledging not knowing how to spell it off the tops of their heads. Is that really “white-centric bias” if you have no other name spelling comment comparison from other days in the past? Seems like a spurious (and intentionally inflammatory) conclusion.
I got it from the crossings, so it wasn’t a problem, but “Thneedville” does not appear anywhere in the original Dr. Seuss version of The Lorax. I know this because I read the book on repeat to my toddler recently. For those familiar with the book, the thought that the land of Truffula Trees and Brown Barbaloots would be called “Thneedville” (presumable after the dirty Onceler’s destructive product of commerce) is offensive!
