If you equate "designed (unintentionally) with traits that have a long history as insensitive stereotypes" with "censored for being different", then naturally, you're going to get upset.

However, they're two very different things. The problem wasn't that someone was offended by seeing something they weren't used to and wanted hidden from view, it was the fact that they were already too used to seeing those stereotypes in action, and Derpy looked like more of the same in all the wrong ways.
