You applaud it, I think it’s bloody awful but we agree it is their property to do with as they wish.we agree!![]()
Maybe authors need to put something in their wills saying that wet wipes cannot sanitise their work once they are dead.Why can't we have 2 versions of historical texts?
One sanitised/watered down/editted "for modern audiences". Then one in original format with a disclaimer at the front that explains the age and circumstances around the original release. We do that with Tom and Jerry ffs.
Let people decide which version they wish to read and if they are outraged by the original then they can't say they weren't warned.
If a text can't be edited without fundamentally changing the context then release it with a disclaimer on the cover and let people make their own mind up.
You applaud it
Sounds like you applaud it.cannot be edited?
I am happy for books to be edited to fit in with modern standards
You are happy with it.I have at no point at all ever said I applaud it
Mind, its not like the old books suddenlt vanish.Why can't we have 2 versions of historical texts?

You are happy with it
you are pretending I do for internet beef points
happy enough to accept it if the publisher wants to do that
So you have no opinion on it either way. Which is fine.
Pathetic tbh.All getting a bit silly now isnt it!
I have no idea what you think. That's why.that isn't at all what I said
why do you persist on trying to put words in peoples mouths (for internet battle points?) rather than just take their words as they have written them?!
Amazing how many people don't understand this oneTechnically it has never been a colour![]()
Exactly what stuffy old men said when the suffragette movement was in full swing.All getting a bit silly now isnt it!
I have no idea what you think. That's why.
I still have no idea if you approve, disapprove or don't care one way or the other.I have repeated said what I think, and you responding claiming I think differently to what I have said I think
