I know it was written a very long time ago when things were different. But, I found I didn't like it. What was different back then was most of what it was I didn't like. I didn't go looking for things to like/dislike. It just was there.

And that's absolutely fair. That's entirely different to claiming that a book is "shockingly offensive" for the "crime" of having been written in a time when society was different to what it is today.
