They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

I didn't bother posting an excerpt because the article is complete garbage. Hope you all don't mind.

Oh, the headline was plenty enough.

Women and minorities hardest hit!

Of course, plenty of working-class white men, for whom trucking is probably the most readily available good paying career, will be hurt just as much, if not more—and driverless trucks, which rely on freeways, are generally seen as being closer to reality than the city-driving driverless cars being tested. Yet the ignorance of that in favor of the "women and minorities hardest hit" line all the time is exactly how we ended up with President Trump.
