I'm guessing they don't want to deal with it.
This is actually good, if more people chose not to use Medium because of issues like this, Medium would adapt or die.
- braingenious 4y agoDeal with what exactly? How is Medium supposed to “adapt” to someone’s theoretical issue with critiquing Mark Twain? Right now OP is… choosing not to post something. I suppose Medium could request access to his hard drive, grep for documents containing slurs+”twain” and force-post them to alleviate his anxiety?
- atian 4y agoThis is at Medium’s expense. Not very good.
- braingenious 4y agoNvm, this whole post is just whipping up attention before he posts. It is factually untrue that the usage of slurs results in an automatic and incontestable ban, and I would be surprised if OP did not bother to do any basic searching before inventing this boogeyman. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33227936 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33227936
