[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 8284387, member: 11760"] They are a publicly held company that intends to stay in business. You are going to find few businesses in a similar position saying that past works that are widely seen today as racist, sexist and ableist are the direction they're going to keep going. WotC in particular made this clear when they slapped a warning on nearly all the TSR products posted to DMs Guild/DriveThruRPG. They are not creating works for edgelords who want to sit down with their 12 year old cousin and subject them to sex trafficking, racism and telling them that disabled people are inherently monsters, under the guise of "I don't want to shelter her." You are, of course, free to do that yourself, and always have been. But the publicly held company won't be putting out the books to support that by default. It's irrational to expect them to do so, based on their fiduciary responsibilities to their shareholders. [/QUOTE]
