Uber Says Its Drivers Can Kick Out White Supremacists
| “are expected to exercise good judgment and behave decently towards other people in the car when riding with Uber.” That list of bad behavior includes breaking the local law, damaging property, and use of inappropriate and abusive language or gestures. Uber tells Washingtonian that if a driver deems actions by a passenger discriminatory—which could include ideology,
| signage, and remarks associated with racial supremacy and neo-nazism—a driver is within his or her right to terminate the ride. It’s possible, too, that the user could be banned from using the app entirely, though Uber maintains that it investigates each complaint on a case to case basis.

| and this is where I disagree.
you can't deny someone a use of your service for political opinions. Youtube was more grey because Jones was technically in Youtubes employe with ad revenue on his channel, what they could do is block him from ad revenue.
1 Its stupid business take their money from them
2 It violates the spirit of free speech
3 It opens up for them to do the same to anyone else.
| >>384056 freedom of speech doesn't protect you from the consequences of being a cockwaffle
also, considering it's killed and marginalized people, white supremacy isn't a political opinion. it's a lifestyle choice, and a shitty one at that
| The issue lies with who is going to decide when someone can be called a white supr.
| >>384073
>consequences of opinion
you're strawmanning. The problem is uber is providing a service and saying one group can't use it. its discrimination. Thats the problem. It opens the door for them to do the same thing right back.
>killing and marganilized
Communism and Religion have both marginalized and killed people reconquista, crusades, jihad, ukraine famine under the ussr. Does this mean they also can and by your wording should be denied service
| Signage and remarks are somewhat understandable. But to be able to deny service for "discriminatory ideology"? Thats a scary precemdent there. Especially because Im certain its a double standard. Try and kick someone out for being a hardcore feminist or a black lives matter rioter? Youd never hear the end of it. A republican white male? Apparently free game.
| >organisation with extremely violent past gets denied services for safety purposes. This is somehow offensive and discriminating.
| I mean it is white supremacists. You telling me as a black person you'd feel comfortable giving one a ride? It's not that controversial.
| >>384132 2/3 of what you listed doesn't technically exist anymore. But why the fuck is not wanting to serve a jihdaist controversial to you
| Good I'm glad, fuck white supremacists, and fuck the way they drag free speech through the mud to feign legitimacy.
| >>384302 How do you "drag free speech through the mud"? The point of free speech is to protect unpopular opinions. Free speech entails that all speech, not just speech you agree with, is protected. It doesn't matter whether the majority of people find it illegitimate.
| >>384298
those examples were for your comment on killing and marginalizing. by your logic Christians are all responsible forf the crusades
Communists are all responsible for the famines
Zionists are all responsible for the firebombing of roman churches.
You want to associate a whole group and deny them service don't cherry pick at least.
| >>384329 they drag it through the mud by going "muh free speech" whenever they whine about anything (which is often) but the moment a legitimate issue of censorship comes up they shut their traps.
|
| The Paradox of Tolerance is real and Karl Popper was right, fuck neo-nazis, alt-right cucks, and all their associated degenerate cronies digging in their heels to prevent humanity's progress as a species.
| all white supremacists and all its ideas should die imo that would really make a better world
| >>384591
If we purge Islam and white supremacy all together, i do agree that a passage to peace would be attainable
| >>384605 islam didn't give terrorist groups weapons and power, the US did
>>384787 die in a hole brony or learn how to care about other people maybe
| >>385175 Yes, and I'm sure you feel the same way about cake store owners refusing to make wedding cakes for homosexuals.
| >>385597 white supremacists are the opposite of marginalized, and homophobic business owners don't have the right to refuse service due to prejudice. refusing service because you don't want to be in the same car as someone who wants you and your whole people dead isn't anywhere near the same as refusing to provide a service because you want certain people to be unhappy just because you hate them for absolutely no reason.
| I don't care if you're faggot or some Neo Nazi, I'm fucking putting you degenerates on a cross.
| >>385944
>its a private service, they can deny it to anyone. (>>385175)
You really got to learn how to word these things.
| >da white sprmeciat wants to kill us we need to deny services to anyone who falls under that category even though we can't read minds n shiet
| >um, UniteTheRight is a Neo-Nazi rally
um, congratulations, you just denied service to an antifa chap that wanted to go there to protest, because under your standards, everyone who goes there wants to slay all the minorities
| If I'm an Uber driver, and I'm white, can I deny services to people who want to go to any meeting I deem to be Black Supremacist, because, under your standards, any kind of supremacy should be quashed because it will lead to me being killed for my race?
| Lol, all of you are sheep who treat CNN like gospel because they say Trump is a meany-head every 4 seconds
| >>386801
He compared black supremacy to white supremacy even though white supremacy has gained the ear of the POTUS. Hes just super fucking pissed cause he has to switch to lyft now.
| >>385944
Let's all take a step back & realize that believing your race/culture/ethnicity/religion is superior to others does not mean you advocate genocide, hence Jason Kessler's pathetic rally of ~30 people.
| alexa unleash the kraken
| If they disagrees with me, they must be a *label that justifies me using violence against them*
| welcome to the inverted version of the Third Reich, let's deny people services because of their beliefs.
this time it isn't jews though, it's white workers. if you're white you're nazi. if you don't agree with us you're a nazi.
if you're not a black trangenderqueer LGQBTBAIA demigorgon genderfluid muslim communist, you don't deserve to live.
IF YOU DISAGREE YOU ARE A FASCIST. WE'RE NOT FASCISTS, SO DO WHAT WE TELL YOU AND SHUT UP or else we ruin your life (and kick you out of uber)
| >>387468
Literally the white people who will be affected by this are known nazis i.e Spencer and what not. Why are you sperging out?
| >>387482
you see? every single person that you throw out of that uber is a nazi. you don't need to think, you just need to throw them out. they're all traitors and white supremacists. you must deny them the right you reserve for everyone else.
by the way, we're not fascists or anything.
| ITT: nazis saying that people who don't like associating with them are the real nazis
| >>387482 You're using these vague guilt-by-association concepts that ultimately serve to distract from the clear issue. I'm pretty sure if I beat a puppy to death, it'll piss off some actual self-avowed neo-nazi. That doesn't make it okay.
| >>387506
what i was trying to say
>>387504
itt people fighting against a minirise of actual fascism at the risk of being called nazis
| >>387506
>Vague
>Guilt by association
I literally used Richard Spencer an actual NEO NAZI as an example. What i was saying was everyday white people literally have nothing to worry about. But outed neo nazis who chanted "Black Lives Splatter" and "Jews will not replace us" may be at odds. And I apologize if I dont feel any sympathies for such a group. Also calm down
| >>387489
You watch Family Guy huh? How many whites have been thrown of a uber car thus far? Obviously Uber isnt trying to antagonize 62% of the population but rather a small fringe group of assholes. Notice how only a few autists are crying about this. Unless they have a reason to cry that is...
| >>387560 No. Anyone who goes to that rally is a nazi according to Uber's standards.
> Drivers with the transportation company Uber will have the chance to refuse passengers who attend the upcoming Unite the Right 2 white supremacist rally in DC on August 12. The refusal is contingent on a driver’s feelings of comfort and safety in accordance with the app’s community guidelines.
Hell, you don't even have to be white.
| >>387560 I know, I know. You're not used to hearing an argument for the other side in your echo chamber, so any disagreement sounds like a reactionary rant with no intellectual substance. I will "calm down", as you say. I hope I didn't scare you.
| >>387621
I have a feeling that if Uber wanted to deny rides to BLM protesters youd be insanely quiet or even outright supportive. Or am I wrong?
| >>387618
Anyone who goes to the rally is a neo nazi? Ok if they kick out counter protesters I'd laugh really hard. Youll be happy to know only 20 something losers showed up to the rally. So AGAIN this doesnt matter. Now go back into a coma so you can regain the energy to make another pointless fuss over nothing.
| >>27d2b8 >>fa75ee >>8d8ae9 >>ed61cf >>2e18c2 >>>3a0ba9 >>5853b7 >>eaad19 found the nazis, kill em, boys
| Black lives splatter i admit that was kinda funny. Does that make me a nazi?
| > The refusal is contingent on a driver’s feelings of comfort and safety in accordance with the app’s community guidelines.
"Hello, good sir, I would like to attend this UniteTheRight rally for a variety of reasons that don't have anything to do with extremism."
NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZI!
"I'm the Zodiac killer, and when you get me to McDonald's, I'm going to slowly carve off your face while your still alive, savoring the screams you make along the way."
Hm, seems safe.
| Strawmen: The Thread
| >>387741 Saying that your accusing this thread of being a strawman is, in and of itself, a strawman. 4-dimensional chess, hombre.
| I guess the fact that this thread exist because of a anime like visual novel video game, it shouldn't be surprising that the discussion turned into this. Hey Mods the threads run its course. Please delete
| >>387719
You cant even strawmen correctly. In your example, it implies that an uber driver would be fine with someone admitting to wanting to kill which you could kick one out for BEFORE this unite the right shit. Are you a troll?
| >>387618
>Hell, you dont even have to be white
>Black unite the right members saying Jews will not replace us.
Stay off this, and finish your special ed classes
