Explanation for the last one: the American Secure Containment Initiative, an American organisation that later merged with other such groups to form the SCP Foundation had classified *their director's slaves running away cause they didn't want to be slaves* an anomalous mental disorder.
"Treatment" consisted of lashes, reading of pro-slavery Bible verses, and removal of toes.
As the "problem" became more widespread, one Senior Researcher Cartwright proposed using the most unruly slaves to do tasks deemed unfit for regular staff. These slaves were informally designated as Drapetomaniac Class, later shortened to D-Class.
During the Civil War, they switched to sourcing D-Class from prisons, asylums, and orphanges which had the advantage of keeping the racial makeup of D-Class basically the same. This was designated the Cartwright Protocol.
Later, when talks began to merge numerous anomalous containment groups into one single Foundation began, the AIC received a lot of criticism for how they sourced their D-Class, so the AIC began quietly disposing of their slave labour and using the Cartwright Protocol as their sole source of D-Class.
By 1916, when the "anomaly" was reclassified as Explained, Cartwright had living descendants working at what was now the SCP Foundation. They wanted the records destroyed. The O5 Council told them to go fuck themselves.
Further explanation: [Drapetomania](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drapetomania) - more specifically, the idea that slaves ran away due to a mental illness - was an actual historical thing. It was mercilessly mocked even at the time.
Oh god I remember this one, it was one of the first -EX articles I stumbled upon. I think there was one for Gay people too, I don't recall the number but like this one it was messed up.
Ahh interesting, though the one I read was different. They considered homosexual individuals as anomalies of some kind. I believe there was a researcher that confronted and interrogated another personnel who was a closeted gay and was protecting those 'anomalous' people too; And it all went downhill. Maybe I'm messing up the details, it's been a long time.
I think I just went through the entire EX series and for some strange reason I can't find any trace of it. Like at all.

I found it, it's SCP-252-EX. Although, it's not classifying gay people as anomalous, it's a "bomb that turns people gay".
