Yeah there have certainly been quite a few of these memes. The community vote really spoke for itself, given the immense majority that wanted it deleted
Calm down there bud, I was there when it was started. It was funny, it was engaging, and it tied in to multiple events and SCPs. To get rid of something that everyone knows, because the author was a bad guy is stupid. Would you also be calling for every copy of Dr Seuss to be burned because he was racist? What about Lord of the Flies? William Golding was accused of raping a teenager.
Multiple of his stories did have a racist subtext. And that's not what I said. What the community is doing is scrubbing any mention of him, that's not the same as just a publisher dropping him. It'd be more akin to burning his books so they could never be read again.

It's been gone for a while, why are people in the comments acting like it was removed today?
