> I don't support any state's power to take away any human's rights. Absolutely agreed. Which is why I'm firmly against Maine's proposal here

Strange that suddenly they don’t seem to like this concept so much anymore :) “I support the right of $state to ban $thing” Wait, not like that!

That’s not what a free society is. That’s like saying “Mainers should be allowed to ban speech they don’t like, and private sex acts they find offensive”. Your view of what constitutes freedom is nonsensical.

Truly a difficult choice. One side fights against government bullying and the other… put security cameras up. Decisions, decisions

There is an argument to be made yes, but not a particularly good one.

Not how Uber works now. Uber drivers love the flexibility and the ability to choose their hours. That’s the main draw of tue platform.

I agree, it’s shocking that the only productive sector of society has managed to remain unmolested for this long. I’m sure it won’t last, and we’ll soon regulate it into nonexistence and turn ourselves into Western Europe.

Why does it have to be due to the skin color of the car’s occupants? You know that correlation doesn’t necessarily imply causation right? Statistics are a tricky thing to get right

What has the UCLA written that agrees with this claim? > They also falsely stated that the officers are “white supremacists,” > Statistically that's a pretty sensible assumption.

Neither your comment nor the article answers my question. There’s no evidence here that the discrepancy is due to race.

Sorry, just looking for evidence that supports the claim that was made. So far there isn’t any.

Is there evidence to support the claim that, more often than not, a given cop is a white supremacist?

No, I don't think that this supports the claim that it's a safe assumption that any given cop is a white supremacist.

Sorry, that's not how this works. Claims must be supported by evidence. I didn't ignore it, I reviewed it and explained how it doesn't support the claim. I have no obligation to provide evidence to the contrary. Claims made w

Where in this article does it suggest that it’s a statistically safe assumption that most cops are white supremacists?

I’ve heard it before, just not sure how it applies here in the way that you’ve used it.

Sorry, NIMBYism is on the way out. We are building high density housing, cafes, restaurants, shops, data centers, and offices all next to each other. Nothing you can do about it.

Sounds like having a w2 is a pretty good deal for you then. Slavery isn’t defined by “I don’t want to talk away because the deal is too good”, it’s more like “I’m unable to walk away because I’m threatened with force if I do so”

It is shocking to me that anyone still considers the US solution to be “too privatized” lol. Healthcare and housing are simply too important to not allow the market alone to dictate.

Disagree, sometimes you'll see real people on this website advocating for racism to be illegal. It wouldn't surprise me at all if that's what they truly meant.
