Note problem with brackets display in the paragraph pasted below from the post linked above (first character and opening bracket appearing twice, character or two after closing bracket not appearing at all). These problems are not present on the back end, are not showing up in other posts, and they only start appearing halfway through this post.

“Nakawatase: I wound up in jail over Christmas in 1963 with a group of SNCC [m[members]It was a mixed group of women, both Black and white, and of men, all Black except me, and one of them was John Lewis. We had gone to a Huddle House, which was a greasy spoon in the Atlanta area, and got picked up, arrested, and jailed for criminal trespass. I was being arraigned, I was telling the [o[officers] want to go in with those guys, meaning [t[the]lack SNCC people, as opposed to being in some jail by myself. And [t[there]as just incredible bewilderment. The guy looks at me, and says—I’m paraphrasing—“You’re not colored,” meaning I’m not Black, “so, [y[you’re]hite.”

Hi,

Now this is an unusual issue, those brackets seem to be part of the actual post content, as if they were actually placed in the post

So you checked in the backend (text tab) and those brackets are not present. Maybe a plugin is inserting them there for some reason, you could try as a test to deactivate them all, except theme plugins. Check if this has any effect.

Thanks
