Fact is, it gets more people reading Shakespeare and UNDERSTANDING him. And that can only be a good thing.

That's because the content of 4chan is not Shakespeare's. The book series is about allowing the widest possible audience to experience the magic of Shakespeare. I don't understand how anyone could be against that.

But this is not Shakespeare. It cannot be Shakespeare, by definition. Therefore, it does not help the current generation relate to Shakespeare (as if that were a good thing).

Things like these are wholly harmful. They give plebs a false impression that they can actually appreciate works of art for their just values, and it makes great works look unimpressive; it removes them from the divine.

There is really nothing good about this. Stop trolling faggot.
