      The reason this is an ongoing problem is THERE ARE TOO MANY DRIVERS The churn on app-based rideshare is enormous, it's a selling point - it's how they roll out their service so quickly, anyone with a car can sign up within few days

      That's why it's kind of headass to even blame "Uber", the company - this driver who got "fired" likely was able to hop over to Lyft immediately, if he wasn't already The bad policy isn't from corporate, the people get left because the driver population is full of assholes

      Yeah why bother to critique a business model that made this a problem to begin with. Definitely focus on the largely undocumented people. Definitely going to solve the problem there.

      It helps the problem in a much more immediate and direct way than concern trolling that redirects the discourse into the driver being the victim does

      I don’t know there has been massive organizing to try and push back against this predatory business models by literally thousands of people. But that’s a lot harder to do than yell on Twitter so I get it

      There's been massive organizing on this specific issue too, which led to the NFB vs Uber lawsuit, which succeeded Maybe you should educate yourself on this history before going off about it

      And, in fact, the long-term push to have Uber be regarded as an employer and not a mere service provider to drivers has the NFB lawsuit as a milestone It was Uber arguing the plaintiff's demands could be satisfied without opening the question of their core business model

      If it turns out they can't - and NFB considers enforcement of the settlement an open issue and one of their primary organizing issues, and asks people to submit reports of ADA violations as well as sending out test riders - then it opens again

      ADA compliance shouldn't be seen as a "wedge issue" to address other concerns, it is a moral priority in its own right But it absolutely is a very powerful such wedge issue More visibility of these violations via viral tweets and videos etc is very very good

      This is insufficient! Because not every disabled person has 20k followers on Twitter! Not every person who gets assaulted in a rideshare gets to have accountability!

      Yup! But people who do have lots of followers making it go viral is a form of activism! Concern trolling those people when it goes viral is opposition to activism!

          People talk like the original passenger in this story went on a vendetta against this one guy - even claiming they doxed him, which they absolutely did not do The original post was the exact opposite, it said they'd had this happen FIVE TIMES IN ONE TRIP and was a pattern

          And was not "personal", even though they had every right to be personally angry with the individuals who chose to treat them badly It's a pattern of societal discrimination, and the original post was trying to make that point
