Yup. And we gotta eviscerate The Gondoliers because it deals with an imaginary Italy and imaginary Italians. And Iolanthe, of course, because it deals with "fairies"- and we all know what THAT'S code for.
Then Patience is out because of its take the aesthitic movement. And Yeoman isn't an accurate portrayal of the 16th Century. And etc.

Jesus wept.
