I’m having to see the same exact issue with my work. Each week we’re seeing up to 75 Uber and Lyft drivers coming in over deactivations, and very few understand why their driver accounts do not work. We have to break it all down to simple terms for them.
"Liberal commentator and consultant" damn, what happened to "liberal provocateur?" But yep... I'm a YES on Amendment 85, Plain Language Ballot Questions, as a lefty progressive even though Advance Colorado brought it...😬🧵

Drivers, have you been offered cash advances or seen ads for cash advances for gig/platform based workers, with high interest rates and odd collection terms? Take the survey from,@BorrowerJustice, to help protect platform workers from predatory lenders! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…

DSA passed Principles for Party Building in 2025 to affirm our independence from Democrats. Anti-socialist ballot line laws can't deter us from using elections to build mass socialist organization. Instead, democracy & independence--markers of a true party--protect us from Dems.
lol a democratic socialist is not a democrat. democratic socialists are using the democrats ballot line but no, we are not democrats. dsa is made up of different socialist tendencies, different factions, but no, we are not democrats.

BREAKING: United Auto Workers today passed a resolution at its convention, 321-287, to divest from Israeli bonds. With nearly 400,000 members, UAW becomes the largest US union to officially divest from Israel. The vote received support from a range of sectors, including a large number of Michigan auto delegates, in addition to legal services and higher education. The original call for divestment came from a wildcat strike of 2,000 mainly Arab American workers at Chrysler’s Dodge Main in 1973. Amid the genocide in Gaza, pro-Palestinian labor groups and UAW locals renewed and intensified their campaign. Speakers motivated for the resolution by citing the union’s legacy of divesting from South African apartheid in 1978.

Long live the martyrs of Haymarket Square. May they never be forgotten and the cause for which they fought for. May labor prevail, always.

Of course they did. Yet another one thing we have to contend with from Uber and Lyft.
🚨SCOOP: Lawmakers just slipped a line into a bill that gives Uber and Lyft a special get-out-of-jail-free card shielding the companies from lawsuits amid a flood of class-action cases.

We could have seen a stop to price and wage surveillance like what they’re talking about here with HB 1210 here in Colorado, but @GovofCO decided that the feelings and financial interests of corporations mattered more than all of us who get ripped off and vetoed the bill. 🖕🖕
NEW: DoorDash has patented a system that lets companies offer promotional deals based on how stressed you are. States are passing bans against surveillance pricing, and Big Tech is spending big to crush them. We uncovered the $13K wine-and-dine that defanged Maryland’s ban.

What happens when you piss off Uber and Lyft drivers? This is what happens. Uber, Lyft and their puppets screwed over drivers statewide. They’re done playing nice and this is the start of the inevitable backlash. @CODriversUnited is DONE playing nice. Expect us, respect us.

It took forever to create this, but after years of putting up with him, I needed to say it in a more eloquent way: Go to hell, Governor Polis. He’s been anti-labor and anti-worker and capitulated to a monster. Stay away from office for good, Polis.

You know what’s really astonishing, David? The fact that you’re on track to earn a billion you never even put in real work for, while your own drivers might pull $35k to $45k a year after everything else comes out while still doing actual hard work. fortune.com/2026/02/09/lyft-…

Corporate executives at Starbucks, Dutch Bros and Inspire Brands (parent company of Dunkin’) make a combined yearly amount of $66.2 million per year. Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol alone makes a total amount of $30.99 million. Why again can none of them seem to afford to pay more?

I’m still furious over 24 hours later that these three had zero problems siding with out of state tech bro billionaires and their selfish hoarding over tens of thousands here who struggle to even make a living driving. They can go fuck themselves after this.

Student debt in the United States is at a staggering amount of $1.84 trillion. No other nation even allows for this to exist. Tell me how it’s fair to gaslight millions into carrying this debt when it only exists on paper and could easily be forgiven, naysayers be damned.
