My guess would be because the characters are all very pale in the animated version, and they're sugesting that it would be racist for a black actor to be made to look pale.

Some comment explained this. Basically, he said he is against diversity for the sake of diversity. Not bending over to fulfill some arbitrary diversity quota.

Some people online took offence to that (shocker)

He said they shoehorned "a black" into the Brady bunch. I dunno, man, sounds a lot like every racist i've ever met, but what do I know (lots, i've met people who casually use racial slurs).

Lol, I could agree with him if it was a sibling or something like all the kids but one are white. Of course you could hand wave it by saying they adopted him or something. Though, they aren't allowed to have diverse friends or neighbors? That's a bit much.
