Haha that’s actually a crime genius, and it only took him ten years to pay any consequences because he fled Brazil before he could be prosecuted. What a hero.

If it's too light the swagger of a converted office apartment might blind you and you could trip and hurt yourself 😥

Hahah yes they have such a lack of funding from the Koch brothers alone. You’re a moron.

One thing I'll never understand is the MTAs insistence that we need to get back to where we were in 2019. Subways we're a fucking nightmare. Cars were packed, trains were insanely delayed by people packing in. I never want to go back to that. It is a terrible way to run a transit system. The goal shouldn't be sardining as many people as possible...

Yes, because the likelihood that a white person commits a hate crime is less than a black person. Statistics matter.
It’s like you don’t understand statistics. In this case, it’s the opposite. The greater the representation of race per hate crime = more exposure. More black people are committing hate crimes than whites via population. More offenders do not equal more exposure.

Does that change the fact that most hate crimes are committed by whites? Which was what we were talking in the first place? More offenders more exposure

Liberalism should free us from the evils of capitalism that made children work 🤷🏾♂️

Reply to comment by Metapod_Used_Hardon in NYC tenants report rampant housing discrimination by landlords over vouchers by DrogDrill
Make 40x the monthly rent, have 750+ credit score and stellar prior landlord references? Voucher or not, come right over! Have 400 credit score and a bunch of prior eviction? Go pound sand, no soup apartment for you - irresponsible deadbeats are not a protected class! That's how it works in the real world bucko.

Reply to comment by Charming-Fig-2544 in This café in the West Village is now owned by its own employees by geoxol
Ye I guess that’s a good point using pure definition of socialism. But then that would mean that google and Facebook were socialist enterprises since the founders were the original workers and really continued working still, and for a while owned majority of shares. Theoretically every business starts as socialist enterprise then the original workers sell their stake in it, and incoming ones get none or tiny share

Right but like how strong - i hear bedrock all the time but it still seems really vague. Like is there a point where if it’s thinned out too much it’ll break?

And there are black and Hispanic people in every state that attack one another over racial differences, attack themselves (Dominicans vs PR’s for instance), attack other races (Asians predominantly), etc.
In 2021, total hate crimes committed amounted to 8673 reported cases. 56.1% (4865.55) were white offenders. 21.3% (1847.34) were black offenders.
Those white offenders accounted for .002% of the 2021 white population. The black offenders accounted for .005% of the black population. Statistically, you are more likely to have a hate crime committed against you than a white person.
Black people per population commit more hate crimes than whites. Shocker…

Frequency and reliability is what keeps them coming back. The IBX is slowly becoming a reality, even though its just LRT but its better than nothing.
100% on BRT, they really need to seriously look into true BRT setups rather than just painting lanes. Without enforcement, people don't give a shit and will double park.

Respectfully, I think that’s only half true. I would definitely say that the new administration of New York city wants to siphon a lot of money from different places including in the public school system. But I would say that the previous administration did a lot for students in the way of education, opportunities, and programs.
