To celebrate Pride Month, Uber uses a rainbow icon to show the driver’s vehicle. Here’s an example where Uber’s white saviors suggest that “Mohamed” is a follower of Rainbow Flagism:
The good news is that, after a ride in the back of a Tesla 3, the Prius seemed luxurious!
Of course it is brave of Uber to celebrate everything 2SLGBTQQIA+ in the U.S., where the repercussions could be severe, but do the rainbow cars appear for Uber users in Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Bahrain, Pakistan, Qatar, and United Arab Emirates?
No pride for you in Saudi Arabia! Uber’s local inclusion site looks like from the 1990s, a white male in the middle of the picture! People are properly dressed and look sane:

I wonder why Uber does not display bathhouse locations on the U.S. maps. Uber could offer free field trips.
Anon: That’s a good point. Why is the person who appears to identify as a white male at the center?
Uber does highlight COVID-19 vaccine sites, I think, so your bathhouse idea wouldn’t require a lot of extra coding. Uber could use https://washingtonmonthly.com/2001/11/01/cruise-control/ as a linked guide for those who haven’t taken an Uber to a bathhouse previously.
So Uber is celebrating #Pride month, which it did last month and all the months before it. What about an Uber driver who does NOT agree with #Pride and doesn’t want to celeberate #Pride? Why should his/her car be painted in #Rainbow when Uber considers its drivers and the driver’s car to be “independent contractors” [1]?

Any chance Philg could give us a “Drag Storytime” in honor of Pride month: https://www.aircraftnerds.com/2016/06/types-of-drags-on-aircraft.html
maybe edit the title? – who knows if someone from the peaceful community stumbles upon this & issues a peaceful fatwa!
