This sort of thing actually has been going on for longer than many people think. More than a decade ago, there was this "alteration" to Conrad.  https://www.waterstones.com/book/the-n-word-of-the-narcissus/joseph-conrad/ruben-alvarado/9789076660110

How pathetic is that. It would have been way better to just call it ' The Narcissus '

When do these idiots attempt to rewrite The Bible and the USA Constitution?

Can you imagine this cranky crowd emptying a library, reading all the books to find something in their opinion dodgy, to get it reprinted....

 

It is totally bizarre..........

I know so bizarre especially because its the people who own the books who make the changes. Hoping that they make more money out of these book. Wanting a larger public not a few people stuck in the past..

 

Your remark would be true if it were the woke people who changed book instead of commercial interests, showing that those against it are probably a small minority else the owners of the books would not change it and make money of them.
