airbnb’s social credit system: does corporate giant go out of its way to terrorize White people?

By N.S.

“they bought a house with plans to airbnb. then they were banned for knowing the wrong people

“for Kristin Turner and her family, the short-term rental company's ban was as devastating as the appeal process was maddening.”

One of my legions of racial socialist readers is going to ask, “Why do you think a corporate giant would go out of its way to terrorize Whites?”

Because corporate giants are terrified of crossing blacks, so they go to great lengths to avoid doing so. Can you imagine airbnb Whitelisting a black for knowing someone with two convictions for non-violent crimes? Conversely, they know that the same Lügenpresse which will vilify them for crossing blacks will support them when they gratuitously harm Whites. This case was the exception that proved the rule.

Then Whites are going to have to make the corporates FEAR THEM as well.The blueprint is out there,but you have to let it be known,"I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore."

Not just one Whitey,but millions.

From the article:

"For a decade now, Airbnb has had background checks performed on its users in hopes of making the platform as safe as possible for both hosts and guests. The checks, which are carried out by a third-party service that claims to complete them on average in less than a second, have been criticized for their arbitrary nature as people fight bans for infractions as small as not keeping a dog leashed, or, in Turner’s case, knowing the wrong people".

Sound like the process is automated in a way that removes the human element, I doubt there's any racial bias in the system itself but if it were a black family under the same circumstances the company would take some sort of action in order to head off any bad pr. Doesn't appear this White family is getting any of that kind of special consideration.

airbnb has been accused of racial bias, or at least airbnb hosts have been, and taken action:

From the article:

The hashtag was penned by Quirtina Crittenden, a 23-year-old Chicago business consultant, who said she was often rejected by Airbnb hosts when searching for a short-term rental even when the housing was advertised as being available.

She suspected she was being discriminated against because she is African American.

She tested her suspicions by shortening her name to Tina on her profile and replacing her photo with one of a Chicago skyline. After that, she had no problems finding housing.

Earlier that year, Harvard Business School researchers ran an experiment exploring racial discrimination at Airbnb. The study found that, on the Airbnb platform, applications from guests with distinctly African American names were about 16 percent less likely to be accepted than guests with distinctly white names.


Charged with racial discrimination, Airbnb promised to ‘mitigate the bias’

"Our founders' lived experience had not prepared them for the fact that people would bring their biases, conscious and unconscious, onto our platform," says Melissa Thomas-Hunt, the company's head of diversity".


I don't doubt that hosts are reluctant to book black applicants but it's not due to "racial bias", it's because of bad experiences with the usual black bs. You know, loud music, drug activity, fights, sexual harassment etc...the usual stuff. I'm sure there's bad White renters also but it's always way worse with blacks. Hosts are just mitigating unnecessary hassles and expenses which is totally understandable.

GRA:That's "the usual stuff" all right,which it shouldn't be if
blacks had a non-sociopathic brain cell working.Then there's the cop sirens,ambulance sirens,shootings,large crowds of nigs on a porch--all day--everyday,pitbulls barking,kids screaming etc.

My block--thanks to me--is still an oasis.Other areas,not so much.

"Airbnb Is Banning People Who Are ‘Closely Associated’ With Already-Banned Users"

Someone clearly define "closely associated".
