The fact that the whole racist and white supremacist trope gets pushed around this much means that the media has been very effective at lying to entire populace. Think about what else they may have lied about.
There is one exception: A press release he clearly did not write condemns white supremacy.
Again, during the debates (after all the examples cited in that article), he again refused to condemn white supremacy, even when Fox’s Chris Wallace handed the opportunity as a soft ball, and even when Biden reduced it to a simple yes/no answer for him by naming a group to condemn.
All he had to say is “I condemn the Proud Boys” (or any other group he could name).
In the most visible public forum available to him, he chose not to do so, which is the same as condoning them all.
Honestly I expect more from HN than to fall into Kafkaesque arguments about these things but perhaps the problem lies within my own expectations.
