I’m glad she’s been indicted for a hate crime, but will Uber compensate the driver in any way? Of course not. He’s not an employee!

And if you click through to the surveillance video article, you see this:

Mahmud acknowledged the ordeal has hurt him financially, as he is the breadwinner of his family who currently lives in Bangladesh.

How do you live in New York City, and still be this overtly racist?

This story reminds me a lot of a cornerstore Deli in the ghetto side of (capital city of southern state).

It is run by a Bengali dude with two Arab cooks and an African American local. The name is likely ripped from a famous NY sandwich shop, but no one actually knows that.

The Arabs make most of the sandwiches and the African American specializes in salads.

You’ll usually find the two Arabs reciting out loud while they cook, everyone seems to know everyone, and the Bengali is running the cash register and rejecting phony bills.

The outside looks like a crackhouse warzone but the inside is an oasis lol. Always busy with people buying food or cornerstore items.

Objectively the best place in the city to get a philly sub, but you’ll never see anyone mention it outside of the ghetto area.

Point being that if someone asked me what defines America, I’d probably point to that place.

Good decision.

Imagine being so fearful that someone praying in another language triggers you to pepper spray them. What is wrong with people?

I guess I’d be irritated if I had to listen to prayer for my ride, but I think my worst reaction would be retracting a star or two.

Yayyyy.

🤔 about the second part.

Did he just randomly start chanting and she freaked out? Why didn’t the just start praying during a fare?
