We killed people for being witches over some moderate herb knowledge. You bet your ass we would be terrified of a being that can turn into whatever they wish at any given time.

When I said "I bet they would be popular on earth" I meant mainly within the federation version of earth. Yes, you're right that we have done such things but in that world we've been able to overcome our past. They've even made allies (and some have made friends) of the Klingon, their previous enemies.

A good show of what I mean is how they treat Odo even after knowing of the Founders.

Sure, but there is a world of difference between 1700 and today, and an even bigger difference between today and space faring civilizations.

I think the idea that changelings had universally negative experiences is crazy.
