First of all, read in context, the comment you responded to with what I gather was an intemperate and profane message was NOT saying black people are ignorant, insane and addicted to crack. Unless he edited his comment after the fact, you have to read what he wrote in a completely delusional and paranoid way to conclude that he was speaking of all black people or most black people or in any way suggesting that these things are true generally or only of black people. He said none of those things.

More broadly, before you go accusing Medium and Medium Staff of anti-black racism, you should realize that it is well-known and well-documented that Medium’s bias is in the exact opposite direction. I have personally documented that issue in some detail:

Medium is simply not a hospitable forum for people who oppose P.C. culture and regressive identity politics. And yet, I would not be surprised if your irresponsible and thin-skinned accusation of racism gets their fraidy-cat tails in a knot as they try to dance and squirm to distance themselves from any such accusation.
