Sergei Kostin, a member of the anti-war feminist organization Code Pink, was fired from his job as a Lyft driver after a customer complained about a sign in his car that read 'US Jews Say Ceasefire.' The complaint, which came from a single person who felt 'uncomfortable,' led to his dismissal, with Lyft citing alleged discrimination. The sign was calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.

Apparently, standing against genocide is a fireable offense for @lyft . This weekend, Lyft fired our member Sergei for having a “US Jews Say Ceasefire” sign in his backseat, stripping him of his livelihood over a single person who was “uncomfortable.” https://t.co/pk49t1usim
