"Yeah. Like Horton Hears a Who. But imagine if Dr. Seuss was such a horrible racist, the KKK told him to chill the F out."

As amusing as this is, unfortunately no.

Cosmic horror needs both cosmic and horror.

Neither of those two stories are written or generally interpreted as horror.

What is Horton hears a who?

[–] Halfjack@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

Iirc, it's a children's book about an elephant named Horton discovering a civilization of tiny creatures living on a planet the size of a speck of dust and protecting it from other animals.

I loved the scene is Horton hears a who where all the whovians realize their utter insignificance, leading to public mass suicide

Somebody please reverse explain it to me, I know cosmic horror but I've never before heard of this Horton

Elephant discovers a tiny society on a speck of dust (his hearing is good) and has to protect it from a kangaroo (her hearing is not good).
