This "updated for modern audiences" is one of the worst kinds of censorship to me. I think it's worse to revise something to present a falsified view of the past than it is to ban it outright. Even if there was something so bad that 100% of people today were to find it grossly offensive, it needs to remain as-is for the sake of preservation of history.
Just shitpost them by talking about/doing what is removed and then when they complain point out what they are complaining about doesn't exist any more because they fucking revised it!

Indeed. This happens in new publications of old books more than people know. and it isn't usually marked, from what I can tell.
Everything is lies. Everywhere. It's all designed to corrupt your ability to know what the truth is even when you see it with your own eyes.
