Same here. In my town people still feel somewhat more advanced and 'cool' calling Uber instead of taxi. Funny thing is, that most of them are left wing 'justice warrior'/hipster type. I chuckle every time I see this act of irony.
- bobwaycott 10y agoPerhaps if you enlighten them, you'd help people make more informed decisions. And maybe they'd care about the problems. As it is, smugly chuckling at ignorance is rather silly. If they don't know, it isn't irony.
- pas 10y agoI guess the irony is that they "ought to know", given that OP associates "leftism" and hipsterism (social warriority?) with rudimentary eagerness to be up to date on current "issues".
- ntelson1s 10y agoIgnorance does seem to be the willful plight of the further-leaning left at the moment, so I have to somewhat agree with him. But I get your point.
- bobwaycott 10y agoWillful ignorance is endemic in America these days. I'm rather curious what specifically the further left-leaning segment of the population is willfully ignorant of at the moment. Care to share?
- pavlov 10y agoThe real irony is that your smug sense of superiority is exactly what the left always gets accused of.
