We ban accounts that troll HN like this. Please don't do it again. And please stop using HN for ideological battle generally. We've already had to warn you once.

>> People of color and economically challenged individuals
So if you see a black person in your neighrbourhood, they must be poor?
>> Asking what these individuals are doing out of their homes during this dire time for them in the U.S. is a prudent action.
So you know there's no house arrest for the general public anywhere in the US right now, plus social networks exist before & after covid?
>> Don't confuse The desire to protect them with allegations of subtle racism.
Yes - everyone's first reaction to the scenario described is "how can I protect this person from themselves?"
I'll give you the benefit of assuming you're just a really argumentative "debater" or this is a troll, otherwise... wow...

This is either sarcasm or a troll.
It is easy to make money off fear/hate than love/friendship. Racist people will always be racist, Nextdoor or not. It is just that sites like Nextdoor make it easier to vent and share their "feelings". If Nextdoor goes away, there will be 10 others to take its place unfortunately.
