So... Yeah. Apparently pulling it was too easy, and a weak sauce disclaimer that makes a well debunked argument was the path they decided to go. Because as we all know, a tiny, buried disclaimer with a status quo supporting argument is the best way to address racism. #DnD https://twitter.com/aznsrepresent/status/1280720229388124160
FYI: not presenting it at all is not the same as pretending racism was never a thing. At all. In any way, shape, or form. Because we know racism existed and continues to exist, and continuing to make money from it is some bullshit.
This argument is the same as the one used to defend the continued public existence of Confederate memorials and statues. And it's as false here as it is there. Not selling this pdf, or its other egregiously racist works from the past, is not saying "racism never happened"...
... it's saying "Wow, this was some racist shit and we probably shouldn't propagate it and its ideas forwards".
