The Party told you "All Lives Matter." It was their final, most essential command.

I didn't even like it when George Lucas changed his own movies.

I for one think cutting out Kipling for Steinbeck is okay.

Surprising. I assumed you'd fall into the "use inclusive language to make it more accessible to modern audiences" camp.

It's not new, Amazon has reached into people's Kindles and modified purchased books after readers complained and authors folded to make changes.

Changing literature to make it sound better is no different then stripping slavery out of US history.

The past is the past. Don't pretend to have done better than you did. Just do better now.

Not to mention, I'm not even sure some of those changes do anything to improve inclusivity.

I'm still in favor of keeping books on shelves rather than banning them, but this is stupid.

They may be trying to rebrand progressivism to what it was in the Before Times.

Sometimes I think proggles want to be victimized... that they think they deserve it.
