That's actually a very clever idea you got there!

I Honestly blame once-Ler’s mom for this, hell she didn’t have a semblance of sympathy, empathy, or care about the once-ler once everything was gone

Only problem I can see with that is where you pay them with marshmellow, as that might make them less fit to collect the tufts or even kill them off, but still it has the potential to work.

@@Adam-mh7zv yeah good point.

@@harbour2118 yeah she was the one to suggest chopping down the trees and had the audacity to blame him and call him a disappointment when HER idea took a turn for the worst.

Yeah his moms clearly a gold digger if that’s even possible?

​@@Casual_Nerd86I dunno cusse she might have a back story too

​@@Casual_Nerd86Yeah, the Once-ler has a bad relationship with his mother. I have a relationship with my dad that falls somewhere bordering the grey area. I do love him and all, but he really has to stop acting quirky and like a buffoon, even around me.

Yea, I'd like to know that myself

The Once-Ler’s family were assholes to the Once-Ler only using him and his thneeds and destroyed the forest to make themselves rich and never get punished or scolded for manipulating the Once-Ler or destroying the forest and leave scott-free taking all the Once-Ler’s money with him leaving him as a recluse, Ted’s mother and grandmother are better family members to him than the Once-Ler’s family was to him.

They could have gotten Vaccums to suck up the tuffs of those trees instead of chopping

@@brendan1470 exactly. They didn’t want to put in the effort.

@@dragonking1097 it's like they thought of 1 or a few ways instead of having more ideas. They just went straight to the point with that one way

They want to destroy nature, nothing else. The way they harvest is just an act of excuse to cut trees.

They are that goddamn stupid.

Fr she's such a shitty person

I actually like the Onceler's mom.

​@@emilydawson2553 why though

@@assassingamer5983 She has style and she might have had a terrible past.

@@emilydawson2553 That’s not an excuse to treat your kid like shit-?

The fresh air that Aloysius O’Hare sold to the residents of Thneedville to replace the air pollution caused by the Once-Ler and his family was fake, and he only sold it just to get money and make him rich, its side effects brainwashed the town’s residents into always acting happy, selfish, light-hearted and not caring about the nature and animals that once existed and Ted, his mom, grandma and Audrey snapped out of it when exposed to the pollution of the outside world and took admiration in nature, plants and animals and planned a real tree replacing all the fake air created by O’Hare with real oxygen and turning the town’s residents against him.

Okay, but all he had to do was build a machine to grab handfuls of trufula tufts instead.

Understatement.

Not all the trees around the world.

Maybe truffula trees don't lose their tufts in winter, like pine trees.

Yeah, the animals probably hibernate in there because of the tufts.

The truffula trees don't just "grow" from a moment to another, in the 1972 The Lorax version (and i think in the books, I haven't read them) , he says it takes 10 months for a seed to germinate, 10 years to grow into a sappling, and another 10 for it to fully grow, so it'd take 20 years and 10 months for thneeds to be back on business, sooo Once-Ler would most likely be more than bankrupt

Just create a lift and use pitchforks, that could work!

Hell nah, that’s wild 😂💀. But, u actually do have a good point. What man would want to be with a woman as selfish as her?

​@@cutekoala5492 well, onceler was basically an outcast until his thead buiness was successful He was doing everything to keep the family's love for him

1:57 How she threw the Lorax is similar to how Bret and Chet previously threw Pipsqueak.

Once-Ler: Okay then, now that that is settled, I will be calling it a night going to sleep- But rather after I find my bed (sigh) Ralph leaves for work Ralph: If she wants a new track I will give her one!

The Lorax and Ralph Breaks the Internet have similar jokes!

Yeah, The Once-Ler’s mom got mad at and abandoned her son, replacing him with Bret as her favorite child for cutting down all the trees to the point where the truffs needed to make the thneeds and trees for it themselves ran out when she was the one who manipulated him into cutting them down in the first place, so she is the guilty one, not him! This makes her look like an irrational hypocrite.

The reason why the Once-Ler wanted to make and invent the thneed in the first place was not for the money but rather to help change and benefit the world and he is easily convinced by The Lorax that chopping down the trees to produce the thneeds was the wrong thing to do because it harms the environment in the process which leads to his promise not to cut down any more of the trees, just harvesting their tufts without killing them to produce his thneeds to sell, but when the Once-Ler’s family arrive to aid him with it his mom having other plans and she, only interested in the thneeds just for the money and not because she cares for her son and impatient with the thneed’s current production and wanting to get rich now, manipulated him using “motherly advice” into resuming chopping down the trees to speed up the thneed’s production and becoming the self-centered nature careless businessman he is and produce the thneed by factory creating devastating effects for the wildlife in return and after the last tree is cut down, the Once-Ler’s mom, with no farther use for her son disowns him and makes Bret her new favorite child and she and the rest of the family depart with all his money to live rich wealthy lives for the remainders of their lives and the Once-Ler was left broken and remorseful for giving into his mom’s maniuplations not listening to the Lorax and breaking his promise with him and for destroying the forest.

She is just doing it to frame her son and avoid being punished by everyone else for the situation showing what a jerkass mom she is.

It's only funny because they're dumb hillbillies

The Whole reason why the Once-Ler made that promise to the Lorax not to cut down any more of the truffula trees to make thneeds only harvest the thuffs was not because he now abandoned his selfishness and now cared about nature and its animals but because The Lorax forced him to do so and threatened to evict him and later his family from the forest preventing them from creating their thneeds and running their money-making business if they refuse and the Once-Ler’s mom was likely aware of this after her son told her so and the promise he made with the Lorax offscreen and she convinced her son to break his promise and resume chopping down the trees to speed up the thneed’s production and not let the Lorax hold him back just because he is overprotective towards nature and he agreed with The Once-Ler’s aunt and later the Once-Ler himself keeping the Lorax out of the way to stop them from ruining their macguffins.

The Onceler's mom is a big, fat, stupid bitch!

But she isn't responsible for his actions so it is clearly the onclers fault

What else do you expect? White women get away with everything.

How arrogant and egocentric the Once-Ler is, praising himself after sketching what the thneed factory should be like.

Here is the problem, it take time to get to the top of the tree And they are greedy and lazy

Or could have just replanted like any sane business who understands long term sustainability as an important quality. As a matter of fact if the Onceler had just replanted with the sapling he had he could've restarted the entire business

Air comes from the leaves and the silk are the leaves on truffula trees

Yes, by inventing a claw like machine to actually lift more tufts out.

The Once-Ler listened to the Lorax’s warnings about deforestation causing devastating effects for the environment and therefore promised never to cut down any more truffula trees but make the thneeds instead by harvesting the tufts no matter how slow it is because he is only making the thneeds to help other people not for the money, but his money greedy and impatient family including his mom impatient over the thneed’s production and only interested in helping him create them for the money they get in return manipulated him into disregarding The Lorax’s warnings and resume cutting down the trees to speed up the thneed’s production and becoming the greedy businessman he is only interested in the thneeds for the money not to help other people and this continues until witnessing the last tree fall and seeing the devastating effects he caused for the lands around him causes the Once-Ler to finally come to his senses and snap out of those manipulations and regret his actions. (While the Once-Ler’s family no longer needing him disown him with his mom making Bret her new favorite child and leave taking all his money with him leaving him broken and reclusive.)

1:39 Oh, I'm sorry😉 But Mr. Once-ler's not seeing anything RIGHT NOW 😈

Suki Lane from Sing 2 and Judith from Sing are at least not like the Once-Ler’s mom, and Porsha Crystal and Buster Moon are at least not like the Once-Ler at all either, and you know why, cause they aren’t selfish! Humans are always so greedy and selfish while animals are sweet and selfless.

He is finally taking his mother's advice not to let the Lorax hold him back to complete his thneed selling business and is standing up to him for it, no more softness and is resuming chopping down the trees to speed up the thneed’s production and make more money despite the consequences it causes for its animal residents in the process and we know where that will lead.

Or not use a single pair of tweezers and use... oh, I don't know... A LADDER!

The Once-Ler’s mother is sorta the true villain of The Lorax for three reasons: She never showed any interest in her son’s idea of creating Thneeds to benefit the world at first but let him leave home to do so anyway to let him follow his goals and dreams like a parent should let their child do. But when the Thneed became a success with the promise of unlimited money The Once-Ler’s mom and the rest of her family decided to aid her son in creating the Thneeds not just to help her son benefit the world but just for the money in return and make her and the family rich. Even though the Once-Ler already cared about the animals and nature in the Truffala tree forest and convinced by The Lorax to stop cutting down the trees to make the thneeds but instead harvest their tufts to do so without destroying the forest and harming the animals that lived there in the process, (And what the Once-Ler had his family do to make the thneeds) his mom grew impatient with the idea as she wanted to make all the promised money and become rich also refusing to take no for an answer when her son said no to her idea so she manipulated her son to resume chopping down the trees to make the thneeds against his promise me made to The Lorax to speed up production and disregard the Lorax’s warnings about the consequences left behind, and he obliged, and the Once-Ler and his family pushed the Lorax and the animals away in the process as they started their business turning her son into the businessman she hoped he would become. After all the truffala trees are used and cut down polluting and destroying the lands around them in the process, also causing the Once-Ler to snap out of his manipulations caused by his mother and feel remorseful over his actions, the Once-Ler’s mom and the rest of his family rather see the error of her ways and feel remorseful for her actions too or even thank or praise the Once-Ler for his successful business, his mom simply said to her son, (“Son, you have let me down, Bret! You are now my favorite child!) and she and the rest of the family take all the Once-Ler’s money making themselves rich and leave him not getting punished or scolded for destroying the forest or manipulating The Once-Ler overall while the animals living in the forest including Pipsqueak migrate and leave in such of a new home with The Lorax and Melvin going with them leaving the Once-Ler alone with his regrets.

@@rubinmuttoriginal7444 yeah ik :/

Then how come that wagon is filled to the brim with tuffs?! Cause to me that looks like it could make more than 20 thneeds.

No it doesn't, they just need to use a better device that will pull out more tree tufts

Bruj

At least Ted’s mom and grandma don’t treat Ted like dirt but instead love and care about him like a true mother should to their son and grandmother to her grandson unlike the Once-Ler’s jerkass family did to him but mostly due to the promise of unlimited money.

If they made machines couldn’t they just make machines that take more leaves at a time. Or better couldn’t the brothers just take off more than 1 fcking leaf at a time. Or an easier way not be a dumb*ss

Well, did you think the oncler think throughly once greed took over him?

@@jessicaruizcollazo2372 such an amazing yet accurate song fr

No he didn't. It was his mother that drove him to do it.

Yeah, harvesting the tufts from the trees to make the thneeds was a simpler solution despite taking too long but would not lead to them killing the trees and hurting the environment and its animal residents in the process, with no pollution the rest of the Once-Ler’s family expect his mom and uncle of course disapproved of the idea meanwhile as they wanted to make thneeds and money now as they lacked patience unlike Bret, Chet and the aunt so they manipulated the Once-Ler and his aunt and brothers to resume chopping down the trees to speed up its production and make it by factory creating pollution after that and we all know what happens after that, and that's what they get for being impatient!

They’re called truffs.

It's based on a Dr. Seuss book.
