@moonman Hmm I used to read lotsa classic literature as a kid (Project Gutenberg + Amazon Kindle for the win, amirite) and they didn't use many "homophobic" slurs tbh...but yeah everything else is accurate

@realcaseyrollins @moonman It's still important to read it.

I don't think there is anything wrong with putting in modern context however.
@realcaseyrollins @moonman No not changing it by any means, but what's wrong with reading Chaucer or Dante and learning about the worlds they lived in?

same with Mark Twain, his language is harsh by our standards but in his time that was they way people spoke.

We shouldn't censor him because of that.
