Less, though. So Lyft it is. Not that there’s really any way you can ever control who owns shares of a public company, but if the government or its proxy is on record as a large shareholder, that’s something.

“Activism” without sacrificing convenience. Perfect. I suppose the really important part is that you get to tell your friends why they’re not as woke as you whenever they get an Uber.

It’s interesting seeing people admit to their fake outrage nowadays.

Yellow cab kinda sucks though... most people weigh multiple factors and aren’t as inflexible as you imply.
