The article asked Singer for a comment, and printed his full reply.

> I objected to an employee’s statement that we live in a white supremacist culture. White supremacism exists, and America’s history of racism still presents terrible problems, but I don’t agree that we should label our entire culture with this ideology.

His reply was focused on white supremacy in America, he didn't mention a misunderstanding about referring to just the company. There's that other quote from him, but it's strange his entire reply focused on the country if he was just referring to Basecamp.

I’d remain anonymous too, I wouldn’t want to be harassed by the Breitbart crowd who’ve picked their sides on this one.
