Self-Driving Cars Are 'More Likely' To Hit And Kill Non-White Pedestrians---RACIST!!

We let them get away with that shit so long they see racism in everything. It's going to get worse.

Check the stats. There are more pedestrians of color, many more, because why, class? (Not rocket science) Because fewer of them can afford to travel in cars. It’s as simple as that. Is the problem one of racism? I would define it as a root cause but not a direct one. There are many poor whites who dont own cars either. They also get hurt in the streets by vehicles.

Just get out there downtown some day if you want to understand, and walk around for ten blocks or so, and notice it’s hard to get across streets, notice how aggressive drivers are and how they don’t “see” pedestrians right in front of them, often cutting them off when they have the right of way. It is so easy for any pedestrian of any color to get hurt in the streets.

BS they dont even see color. They use lidar.

because cameras suck ass at night.

I found the article and I'm gonna throw some outrage back at the writer. Freakin' jerk. Here's a snip from the piece:

"The most common image of knitting is still probably an old white lady sitting in a rocking chair making a blanket (a stereotype that tends to grind modern knitters’ gears, with reason)."

That "old white lady sitting in a rocking chair making a blanket" was my beloved grandmother, the most decent, special person I have ever known. I still have the blanket that she made me as a high school graduation gift, and my oldest daughter sleeps with hers, made when she was yet unborn, one of the last things Gaga ever lovingly knitted for her family. Gaga sat in that rocking chair for hours on end knitting tiny caps for premature babies, even in her last months when she suffered greatly with pancreatic cancer. She didn't know the race of the babies who would wear them. It didn't matter. She just wanted to bring some comfort to the smallest of God's children. This wasn't some hipster hobby for her. It was a calling, and for these angry morons to be upset that that's the stereotype, I say get a freakin' life, Instagram whores.

Black people walk in the middle of the road, like idiots, and refuse to move when a vehicle approaches, again like idiots. If self driving vehicles were to hit them more often that would be the true reason - because they're idiots.

Wouldnt that be something

FTFY

Maybe they're intentionally programmed to occasionally run over a dark meat?

...OR is it just that black people are more likely to walk in front of moving cars?

All Self-Driving cars will now require this ethnically targeted bumper sticker warning...designed to help prevent A.I. car ethnically biased target acquisition:

WHITEFACE JAYWALK JIVE & STAY ALIVE!

The AI, lacking bias and only using logic, facts, and deductive reasoning, didn't identify the black guy as human.

And noahshide guillotines

Your Grandma sounds just as sweet as mine was. She knitted and chrochet'd too. I've got a nice heavy blanket thing that she made me when i was 5 or yrs old...36-37 yrs ago. But yeah, give that that writer hell brother! We were lucky to have ladies like that in our lives.

predator drones.

End artificial privilege now!

Just curious, was your Grandma a Southern lady? I get that vibe maybe she was.

The machines can only follow LOGIC

that's why you aren't allowed to knit or bring knitting needles on a plane


they're afraid you'll make an "Afghan"

Alabama through and through.

We sure were, my friend.

Sweet! I had a hunch. South Carolina here bud.

It's not that black people like to walk down the middle of the street & block roads...it's racist programmers!
