Critics are accusing the British publisher of Roald Dahl's classic children's books of censorship after it altered some of the language in his books to make them more acceptable for modern readers. CBC’s Griffin Jaeger explains:

Have you considered that you're the baddie when you start censoring books?

Pretty much.... You can't make progress when you erase the starting point that progress is made from. I don't condone anything he's being criticized for but... you can't change history. I understand the sentiment of "think of the children", and the fact that because these are mostly children's stories: extra consideration is being made. But still... Leave the modern sentiment up to modern authors. Don't modify history.

There is a film called "Equilibrium", have you seen it? If not, definitely give it a watch if you don't mind action movies. A draconian society constantly taking "j*abs" to conform to the values of the elite while burning every book filled with emotional intelligence.

From the Appendix to Orwell's "1984": "Considerations of prestige made it desirable to preserve the memory of certain historical figures, while at the same time bringing their achievements into line with the philosophy of Ingsoc. Various writers, such as Shakespeare, Milton, Swift, Byron, Dickens, and some others were therefore in process of translation: when the task had been completed, their original writings, with all else that survived of the literature of the past, would be destroyed."

Because history is written by the victors. There’s no real hardship going on for these people, so the “victors” are picking themselves and rewriting anything that sets of their insecurity or could make them seem virtuous.

They should leave the man's books unmolested. He is considered the children's answer to Charles Dickens for a reason. The man is one of the best ever to write to the kiddies. Don't change a comma.

It doesn’t matter if Roald Dahl has said anti-Semitic things, the books he has written don’t promote that in their content. That is a piss poor excuse to just throw these books under the bus. Dahl’s exaggerated language and use of hyperbole and imagery is the heart of all his work. These changes quite literally denote the usage of hyperbole and description as all offensive.

Oh boohoo Roald said nasty things about Jewish people...... Yet you'll gladly side with Hamas killing innocent Jewish people caught on the sidelines... Also, you know your favouirte Lovecraft story? Look up the origins of some of the Gods in his works.... you'll be surprised at how he views Black People.
