Excuse me if I don't take literally anything they have to say.
I wasn't trying to give them undue credibility; they're just the only resource I could find, which is sad.

But my general point was even that they have a disproportionate labeling of right wing groups, Uber still didn't call out most of them.

In other words, I don't think it's fair to criticize Uber for not calling out the leftists groups, given that they didn't call out most of the right wrong groups, there are so many different groups and categories, and there isn't much outside information for them to do it anyways.

I get the hypocrisy of the narrative. At the same time, I think it's unfair to expect everybody to find some politically ideological equilibrium of groups when the ideologies of the groups having varying degrees of political ideology consistency, history, membership, methods, and crimes themselves.

In fact, I think this is an almost self-defeating perspective because it's essentially a tacit acceptance of groups into your political ideology, in an attempt to discredit the other groups.

We all know why they did not say that about BLM. It would be a legal nightmare to say we will not pick up some black people.

I did not get an email from Lyft yet. Smart move by them.
