I sure hope that on the day China puts boots on US soil, there are enough people left who aren't as much of an intellectual titan as whoever made this picture.

Thank you for this suggestion, that sounds like something good to keep in mind! It makes sense that companies are beginning to think about this as well.

Don't imply that I have a crab-in-a-bucket mentality. I don't want my industry to be unfriendly and unwelcoming. I didn't tell you how it has affected me personally either.

Other articles have pointed out that she hadn't immediately reported the rape to Lyft. The medium article makes it sound like Lyft were completely indifferent to the kidnapping and rape, but the related articles seem to agree that the
