I don't know what was said at the meeting. But Singer did start making comments about white supremacy in America at a meeting about banning political discussion at Basecamp. I could see how it looked like his opinions were given more respect than others.
If he made statements about white supremacy not existing at basecamp, then that was a horrible defense to accusations of white privilege at Basecamp. Shutting down discussions over arguments about phrasing makes it looks like Basecamp would prefer just to ignore issues with discrimination if they did exist.

But Singer did start making comments about white supremacy in America at a meeting about banning political discussion at Basecamp I'm sorry, but do you or do you not know what was said at the meeting? Those two statements contradict each other, unless you're talking about two different meetings. I quoted something provided by an employee who was there, at the meeting that this article is about.
- chris11 5y agoSinger was quoted as saying “I strongly disagree we live in a white supremacist culture,”. Your quote implied that Singer was making comments about white supremacy, and Singer's reply to Casey Newton primarily focused on white supremacy in America. I wasn't at the meeting, and it sounds like it was extremely charged. I don't think I can make nuanced comments about what was said there. But it seems clear that Singer made comments minimizing white supremacy in America, even his emailed reply does.
