Roald Dahl's Childrens Books Are Now Being Censored By Woke Editors
It's not just deleting stuff considered "problematic" -- it's also adding stuff Dahl never wrote to increase the books' Woke Rating.
For example, out of nowhere, editors decided to make the Oompa-Loompas from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory... gender neutral. Salman Rushdie, who knows something about extremist religious jihadis imposing their demonic dogmas on others, blasts the woke editors.ovelist Salman Rushdie led condemnations Monday of Roald Dahl's children's books being re-edited for a modern audience, calling it "absurd censorship" by "bowdlerising sensitivity police". Publishers Puffin have made hundreds of reported changes to characters and language in Dahl's stories including making the diminutive Oompa-Loompas in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" gender neutral and calling Augustus Gloop enormous rather than fat. Mrs Twit in "The Twits" is also no longer ugly, but beastly instead, while the Cloud-Men in "James and the Giant Peach" are now "Cloud-People". The criticism comes amid a growing trend for publishers to employ so-called "sensitivity readers" who work alongside editors to identify references to gender, race, weight, violence or mental health that might offend readers. A spokesperson for the Netflix-owned Roald Dahl Story Company, which controls the rights to the books, said it was not unusual for publishers "to review the language used" for new print runs and that its guiding principle had been to try to maintain the "irreverence and sharp-edged spirit of the original text".You could do that by, just spittballin' hear, actually printing the original text. Then you're guaranteed to "maintain the irreverence and sharp-edged spirit of the original text."

That has been. policy of mine for decades to not buy any theology books written after 1950. Nothing magical about 1950, but editors have since taken over and are destroying creative work in the name of making it palatable to some unspecific demographic that is easily offended, stupid, and/or intolerant of any views outside of the contemporary narrative.

You know who has older cars? Poor people. Its a tax on being poor.
There's a way to avoid some of the fees with the 15 minute city plan: a big circular run of roads around the area you can use that avoid the fees for moving from zone to zone... by taking twice as far to drive. Increasing "emissions."

On the larger scale, it's one of the most poignant arguments against slavery ever published. Those who get offended by it are too stupid to get it.
Consider: Huck has been brought up to believe that anyone who helps a slave escape is fundamentally equivalent to a horse thief. But when his friend Jim is in trouble, Huck helps him, even though Huck sincerely believes that he's going to go to Hell for it.

Gamers do not care what the woke scolds think or want. They just want a fun game. The attempt to take over the gaming industry has been slightly successful at the production level (like the women front line combat soldiers being included in a Call of Duty game set in WW2) where woke is kind of taking hold, but all that's done is make gamers not buy that crap and get other games that haven't been so infected.

I'm using the various search engines, both "good" and bad to look up "15 minute city". Interestingly, the vast majority of the suggested links are Karens, Government Worshippers, Malthusians, Leftists, etc. who are characterizing the concept as heaven on earth, using traditional motte and bailey arguments to claim, without evidence or even a feeble attempt to demonstrate that anyone against it or even questioning is a conspiracy theorist and its even not worth debating because every claim against it has been "debunked".
I can't find any conspiracy theories or anything even challenging 15 minute cities in the search engines.

In a later section they mention that it was the axle and track, and ignoring fault signal without making it clear it had nothing to do with the brakes.

That has been. policy of mine for decades to not buy any theology books written after 1950.

It didn't take Yana long to realize that real life in her eighth grade classes at Marina Middle School was nothing like the scenes that played out on her [television] screen.
…
Students interrupted classes, jumped on desks, cursed at teachers. At first, Yana wondered what was going on, but then, "nothing happened." Students were not disciplined or prevented from repeat behavior.

I read there was some crazy indigenous lady up in canada sponsoring community book burnings of books deemed harmful to the indigenous people. They had to stop the burnings during covid though.
Would it surprise you to learn that they are digging into her background, and shocker, she might not even be indigenous but white? If she has any native American blood at all it's from the 1700s, so like 90% of white Canadians.
I'm going to start thinking there are more fake Native American activists than actual blooded indigenous ones.

Anyone notice the latest propaganda? -- That Fox (and Tucker) is to blame for pushing the election fraud story. This is funny to me because
- Tucker specifically said there was no fraud and "I underestimated how strongly people would vote for [oretard] in order to restore normalcy"
- from what I recall, Fox was definitely NOT pushing the fraud story. Maybe some have changed because their audience refuses to ignore it.
It sounds to me like another propaganda attempt to explain whey 1/2 the country refuses to ignore the obvious fraud. And also maybe convince some of those people that they were lied to by Fox.
It just seemed to be a glaring disinfo op to me.

It's part of the game they are playing. They feel comfortable with editing Dahl because he's an "acceptable target" for his beliefs. It's only a matter of time before the move on to authors who are less controversial/problematic once they've established the precedent. He was not selected by accident.

But even if you decide to hate his output as well as him, there is no justification for rewriting what he produced. So three things can be true at the same time
- He was a nasty anti-Semite
- He wrote some good stories
- It is marxists and wrong to rewrite them

Yes. Absolutely. I am not suggesting the editing was appropriate...as I just mentioned upthread...it is never appropriate!

It's part of the game they are playing. They feel comfortable with editing Dahl because he's an "acceptable target" for his beliefs.

That's the more African-American-friendly version. It'll be focus group tested in Detroit.

Also going after Dahl's children's books is used to rope in the wine moms, soccer moms, and LIV twits to get them to approve censorship if it's "for the children".

No published work should be edited after the fact. No matter who wrote it.

...unless it is author's own idea, etc

Yeah, sometimes it's necessary. When Stephen King wrote the Green Mile, in the first printing, it included a scene where a guy in a straitjacket wiped sweat off his brow. It was fixed in later printings.

-Left is trying to blame Trump. This makes me think a biden appointee was involved, perhaps at EPA when they decided "we have a problem - burn it."
- Unions are trying to blame job cuts. This makes me think it was caused by incompetence and over burdensome union work rules
- TPTB are trying to make it disappear. This makes me think it was caused by Leftest eco terrorists (those shunts, etc. they are doing lately.)

I think, though, it was specifically Eric Flint, (a great author, but left leaning) who edited those old stories.

I want to know exactly how a left wing Project Veritas would work. I mean, what, they're gonna send a girl with big boobs after Ace and then she dies when a shelf falls on her?
PV worked because we know the left extremely well and they don't know conservatives at all. There is no situation where reversing that doesn't result in failure and hilarity.

I imagine this point has already been made in the 300+ comments above.
That's no excuse for this, of course.
