The problem with your comment is a sweeping generalisation since you have no idea why many people who use Uber do not prefer public transport, it's the same problems as statements such as 'Mexicans are...', 'Muslims are...' etc. > Uber is a completely unessential service, that its popularity just capitalizes on people's laziness imo Is a computer essential? No? A programmer would disagree. Is guitar essential? No? A musician would disagree. Just because it's not essential to you doesn't mean it's the same for everyone. > Because yes that's what I'm implying but I phrased it not in a "universal truth" way but more in a "personal impression about an issue" Ok, so let's take: "Uber is a completely unessential service, that its popularity just capitalizes on people's laziness" vs "Personally, I'd say that Uber is a completely unessential service, that its popularity just capitalizes on people's laziness, but opinions may differ" Which one seems like an universal truth vs an opinion to you?
