Dr. Seuss emerged as a staunch opponent of isolationism in America in the late 1930s as well as early 1940s. He saw inaction in United Sates to German as well as Japanese expansion as appeasement and cowardice. While the world was in a war, America had isolated itself and just sat to look the other countries fight. Dr. Seuss felt the weakness and thought that Americans were leaving their victims exposed to Japanese and Nazi brutality. Again, just before the Pearl Harbor attack, Seuss used to depict isolationists together with appeasers as lazy, cowardly and unintelligent.
