Anyway, scary. The implications . . . my God. There goes our culture.
Authors can revise their own work, and there are some honorable examples of this.
But this "slave" shit is fucking stupid for any number of obvious reasons.
Besides, our language is evolving, and I'm pretty sure we'll be using "enslaved" in the future. Keep an eye out for a re-revision.
Fuck. Next up: Conrad's "Slave of Nacissus." Adios Faulkner. Years from now, we'll take the word "nigger" from Toni Morrison books. "But she's not racist. Obviously." Yeah, well neither was Mark fucking Twain. Obviously.

And yet you used another hate-filled epithet.
