They can all go straight to hell as far as I'm concerned. Revisionist bastards and politically correct morons. You can't even listen to Pink Floyd on the radio without them bleeping the do goody good BullShit. And I'm talkin about radio stations in NYC. Not out in the sticks.

And in the US, certain publishers are now re-printing many literary classics by such notables as Mark Twain and J.D. Salinger that have been edited to render them "politically-fit for human consumption".

Humans will never know where they are going if they do not understand where they've been.

:roll:

Sad......truly sad.

Yes, I heard about that just the other day. My wife is in publishing: the entire publishing world is wondering whether to laugh or cry about it. It's totally surreal! They used to do this to Shakespeare in the 18th century. Many of us assumed the world had moved on...

Anyhow. I grew up on Pulling Muscles From A Shell by Squeeze. For cripes sake nobody tell the censors what that one's about! :D

Cheers - C

Big brother is watching and taking care of us. Adaptation is one thing, but revisionism is the death of reality. Sadly, all we can do is beeing aware and watch to denounce and expose them, so we can make a difference. These manipulators are loosing all credibility, again. I wanted to talk more about this stuff, but all things considered, I'll just say thank you for this thread and let's keep watching. Meanwhile, I'll go practice my bass guitar playing now. Peace and music. :)

PC movements, changing things to "better suit the people".
ACLU isnt as bad as some though.
