As I said: I don't see how his post is racist and it's not like this post was not sent to me a year ago.

Writing a whole post about how you're afraid of a dangerous neighborhood isn't a good look. But he was not hateful and he did not speak about a minority group in a derogatory way. It was a bad neighborhood, and he wrote about how he was stupidly paranoid of an SUV.

"Activists" dug through some 1,000 of Tyler's personal blog posts this author wrote because he dared speak up in favor of density and development.

Having failed to find him saying anything actually terrible or hateful, they're pointing to something that's merely tone-deaf and not a great look. That's five years old, and written about a different city.
