[Raze]

Roald Dahl was a famous childrens book author known for works such as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Matilda, James and the Giant Peach, The Witches, Fantastic Mr Fox, The BFG, The Twits and George's Marvellous Medicine.

The publishers of his work, Puffin have decided to rewrite certain passages to remove offensive content.

This may be a part of a larger movement in the publishing industry as it moves from stage orange to green.

Re-editing dead authors to fit a certain ideology in 2022 just doesn't look good for the left.

Sadly with this kind of move, they'll only push more and more authors to go "anti-woke".
