You need to refute the Special edition in a questionable manner without coming over as confrontational about it because it is not all bad
I don’t care if it’s not all bad or even if it’s all actually great. That isn’t the issue AT ALL.
Suppression of history is WRONG. (why do I keep having to say this?)
Trying to reason with LFL that “it’s the version I prefer, so you should make it available” is going about it all wrong. It’s not the point that should be made.
Erasing & altering history is morally wrong. It’s an evil thing to try & do.
