So why is

Also the character that they made the hero was originally written as a good guy, then it was retconned that he was a baby-killing usurper, then that part was retconned out before more than a handful of the people currently alive were even born

an issue for you then?

Well, because if you look at number 3 of the post you replied to, you'd see that I draw a distinction between headcanon/fanon/ignoring canon when it's used to create something and using that to criticize people who create other things.

In 1904, Baum wrote a book in which it was revealed that the Wizard kidnapped Ozma and gave her to a witch.

In 1907, Baum retconned the Wizard out of the kidnapping

In 1908, Baum retconned the Wizard out of the usurping of the kingdom from its rightful king, and even established him as a good man whom Ozma trusted and liked.

In 2012, people complained about the Wizard being portrayed as a hero in a movie, citing facts from 1904 but ignoring facts from 1907 and 1908. These people are hypocrites and just plain wrong. That's my problem.

Agreed with your general post - and also was interested to hear about the retconning. I'd read some of the Oz books when I was a kid (about 100 years ago), but somehow wasn't familiar with any of that history.

As for the people complaining - they just like to complain. Maybe they get points when they rile other people up, I don't know, but every month of every year, someone will find something "problematic" to "judge you so hard" about. Sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's just tiresome.
