While agreeing that Ed, as owner and emperor of Medium, has the right (and power) to censor posts, in this case, as you prove, Justice was not blind: it turned a blind eye to this "umair haque" for financial reasons.
In your case, which is much worse, also because of his political tendencies, dirtying his own offspring.
I agree with Linda Acaster's comment: the so-called traditional media only works to enrich themselves.
This is what happens - and with fury - here in Brazil. Fake news, contradicting the facts, making an infamous political campaign.
Ed does worse to me: he has decreed that participants from several countries, myself included, cannot join the Partners Program, cannot claim to earn a few pennies for their work here.
Great, Hotse!
