Yes...it's possible to disagree with them, and if you* do, the proper response is to not read what they write. I don't believe it's proper to change what they have written to "clean it up". There are millions of books to read, a large portion of which were probably written by authors that you do agree with. Why not read those books, rather than try to change the other ones to fit your definition of "clean"?
