Why is it misleading, when the racist drivel that surrounds it is clearly mostly or entirely a manifestation of his illness? (if you've followed his history, you'll have seen him much more lucid, and the religious and racist rants is something that has come as he's deteriorated)

Did you read the original? In context it really does mean something different than it sounds like it means here.

Yes, I did read the original, and while it has some fairly disgusting content, I have also read a lot of what he has written and seen his deterioration to the point where I feel more sympathy than disgust despite what he writes.

I understand that it is hard for some people to accept any part of what he's writing when he's expressing himself like that, though.

He's one of a few reasons why I keep showdead on, as while I fully understand why he's banned and wouldn't advocate undoing that, I also feel he should not be fully ignored.
