Maybe. Looks like lyft can swoop in and be the official ride share partner though.

Yeah kinda, in case you haven't been paying attention they are planning many more demonstrations including LSU. Thankfully most places are telling them to get fricked.

Way to leave out the other part.
The part that "outrages" people is that people like you along with the media only demonize one side while praising the other.

I don't understand the need to publicly announce every deplorable thing that happens that you don't agree with. So, so stupid.
I denounce stealing and murdering. SEE WERE THE GOOD GUYS!

They aren't exactly taking a stand here. Nobody was wondering "yeah but how does Uber feel about racists???"
Nobody is saying "Hey I wonder what Box Geauxrilla or SSGTiger think about Uber" either, but we are still putting out our opinion. I just think its funny that everyone on here gets butt hurt when someone or some company comes out against these White Supremacist groups and cries about them only talking about one side. If these companies and people just came out against BLM, none of you would say a peep. Most would applaud them. The hypocrisy is strong here. I personally would be thrilled by either. I think all of these hate groups can suck a dick.

You are making assumptions and i don't necessarily agree. No one ever comes out and against BLM though. Ever. In fact they're often heralded when they are just as bad as white supremacist groups.
With that said i'm not going to get bent out shape over the uber email because nazi do indeed suck. I won't be deleting the app or using the company less.

I just posted to all my friends on Facebook that I denounce the terrorist attacks in Barcelona. I feel so much better and now my friends know exactly where I stand.

Deleted the App. Will use Lyft or a good ole taxi cab. C'est la vie.

These liberal companies must forget this map when going political.... why would you want to piss off majority of your customer base?
Uber makes its money in densely populated areas which tend to be much more liberal. I'd bet up to 75% of their money comes from their services in extremely liberal cities (New York, Chicago, DC, San Francisco, Seattle, etc.).

You do know that Gavin Long, the 2016 Baton Rouge police killer was a supporter of BLM don't you?
Just because he was a supporter of BLM doesn't mean BLM was killing cops. That's like saying he was a supporter of the New Orleans Saints, therefore the Saints were killing innocent cops.

Because they want us to be racist so badly. When they realize we aren't they have to manufacture something.

It's pretty damn close if he was out rallying with them and the hate that organization was spewing.

what a terrible analogy.

Oh, the Saints are a political movement based on a false narrative of Hands up Don't shoot? Had no idea. Your analogy is terrible FWIW

Did the saints have members advocating for the death of cops?

1. I am not speaking on behalf of a billion dollar company.
2. I am not trying to profit off my opinion.
3. I did not email my opinion to you.

I don't disagree, just wanted to point out that that map is not really applicable here, particularly for a company like uber.

You're right.. BLM is a great, peaceful, well meaning group. They would never have the intention of harming police. How could I ever be so clueless and racist...?

See, this is the great thing about BLM for its sympathizers. There's no structure so they can just retroactively denounce their supports whenever they want to further their agenda.

How would you know that? What company has done that?
Are you too blinded to see that it always comes from only one side of the spectrum?
