So contradictory. First you say that if it were you, and you walked up to a row of bikes, of course you don't choose the one bike that a bunch of guys are around. Well she probably wouldn't either, because that seems like a weird choice. More likely than not, she did not intentionally pick a bike that was occupied by or even close to a group of men, because this is not something a sane woman would do. But then you hypothesize that he was standing next to the bike renting it, and she inexplicably walked up and "swiped it." She's a woman alone, he's in a group of men. This makes NO sense, by your own admission. If it it were what she did, she's certifiably insane. And we have a receipt that shows she definitely rented that bike on that day (serial numbers match). So most likely she rented the bike when no one was near it, and then those guys approached. Now did she actually "escalate" the situation? Initially she refuses to get of the bike and calls for help. Is that escalating? Or simply holding her ground. She doesn't threaten the men, she doesn't claim they are hurting her, she just spends about 60 second trying to hold onto the bike before finally giving up and doing exactly what you suggest -- renting another bike. So even though you agree with her choices and for the most part would make the same ones, she's still in the wrong for mysterious reasons. Okay. |
If my butt is already on it then yes I do want THAT particular bike. The faster I can start riding, the faster I can get away from them. And she probably guessed (correctly IMO) that they would just follow her to a new bike. As someone else posted, this pregnant woman at the end of her 12 hour shift did not go up and choose a bike that a pack of guys were holding. She chose an empty one that looked like nobody was interested in it. |
Shame on you. The people who were in the wrong should have backed down, but they wouldn’t bc they planned to bully this poor woman. You’re attempting to shift blame bc you don’t want to admit your initial assumptions we’re wrong. |
^^^obviously this was referring to the post that the woman should have backed down, not the pp- totally agree with pp! |
Here is the definition of racist, since you don’t know what it is. “characterized by or showing prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized.” |
She was already on, and had already rented, the bike. They forced it back to the docking station - with her on it. Not sure where you’re getting the part that she stared down a row of rentable bikes and chose the one the group of guys had already chosen. Where did you read that? (Hint: nowhere) |
I hope she wins enough money from suing Monique et al. that she can buy a car and pay monthly parking fees for life. |
You are too smart and reasonable for the PP, who has to resort to increasingly silly theories to justify her misogyny. She’d rather believe the absurd than face her own ingrained self-hatred. |
Like her, he could have also rented it before the filming started. You’re certainly welcome to believe whatever makes you feel better. I don’t particularly care what you believe. |
It sounds like you have to be near the bike to rent it so if he was renting it he would have been right there and just said, hey, I rented this bike, can you choose another? |
So your story is, he rented the bike but didn't bother to get on it. And then she ran up, pushed aside the guys standing around his bike, and jumped on his bike instead of on another bike that didn't have a bunch of guys standing around it? Are you listening to yourself? |
I see we're back to discussing who rented the bike first.
I'd just like to point out that it is not possible to be confused about this point. The bike is locked in the dock until it is rented. To rent it you must scan the QR code with your phone. So while their could be a misunderstanding about who was at the bike first, there could not be a misunderstanding about who rented it first. If the bike was unlocked when you got there, the other person already rented it, the end. This idea that you can reserve a bike is simply false. You can't reserve a CitiBike in advance. |
The misogynist PP peddling that flatly absurd theory knows it is wrong, but pushing irrational and easily disproved theories is easier for her than acknowledging her misogyny. |
She’s an idiot and a trolling liar who will never let go of her incredible hatred of white women. It’s old. So is she. |
I honestly don’t even think it’s misogyny anymore. It’s the rabid psychosis of a progressive that can’t come to terms with the fact that she’s completely and verifiably wrong. |
