[QUOTE="OakenHart, post: 8479000, member: 7031328"] I'm confused about the continued anger over the inclusion of the legacy product disclaimer acknowledging them as products of their time. The great majority of people had opinions/beliefs at times that coincided with general cultural/societal beliefs that are no longer in style, and in some cases are now known to be wrong. As long as we're willing to understand that we can have once held those beliefs, but no longer do and are working to be better, it doesn't mean you're a terrible person. These disclaimers are not calling any of these authors terrible people, but some are taking it as saying such. Give it a decade or two, we'll likely realize other things that are "products of their time" now that we'll have grown past. The disclaimer is the most reasonable and unintrusive way to acknowledge that and keeping the original work complete and unaltered. [/QUOTE]
