This ‘Environmental Racism’ Writer Thinks Pokemon Go Promotes Inequality
While the rest of the world is busy enjoying Pokemon Go (another innovation brought to you by our free market system) leftists are preoccupied with waxing poetic about the app’s “inequity” and “systemic bias.”
Aura Bogado, an “environmental racism” writer at Grist, went on a Twitter rant today about Pokemon Go, and explained to the world how the app supposedly perpetuates racism by placing Pokestops in areas that are more convenient for a “white male city-dweller” than people of color.

I know what you’re thinking, but no, this is not satire. What would the world do without people like Bogado to tell us that literally everything around us supports racial inequality?
