No Bigots Need Book An Airbnb Room

I know it is hard for you to think you could be that unimportant. But they don't care.

they will care if lots of hosts got upset over it, which is why they've only taken a rather minor step in getting people to sign a pledge... at best they'll weed out the extreme cases but realistically this is in part a PR move and an attempt to prevent lawsuits

they have the ability to really limit/remove discrimination on their service but it would require a big change which would potentially destroy their business
 
If they cared about people like Tosno leaving, they wouldn't have introduced it. The impact is already there as demonstrated by his post.

As for not seriously policing it, they know by having it in the T&Cs with an actual threat, a large proportion of people will follow it.

"People like Tosno"? How are people like me?

You're skating on thin ice with that remark, you will fall foul of the same rule, "People like me" are against.

Lol what? :confused:

What are you annoyed about now.

Go to your last post to see what I am referring to.

What don't you understand. It is a simple question: How are people like me? I understand if you are afraid to clarify your statement.

I am not annoyed at all. As I do not let any rooms.

I've always wondered what it is that bothers you people so much about regulations that have only one goal which is to make people a bit nicer(even if they don't mean it).

Is kindness offenssive? Or is it you being forced to show it?

Regulations that require you to be nice is contrary to the principles of freedom of thought and expression. I'm rarely tolerant, let alone nice. It requires too much effort.

Rapist and paedo aren't sexual orientations mate.

Actually there's a lot of evidence floating about to indicate that paedophilia is just as much a matter of brain chemistry as homosexuality is...Just like psychosis, Bipolar disorder and a number of other wonderful names we've picked up to label the mentally ill.

You'd be mad to offer up your place on this site on a "no questions asked" basis. I do however think this is a good move for them, it firmly shows where they are in the market and who their target market is.

I agree - you absolutely would be mad to let people into your home if you had no idea who they were...However, I don't think it's the place of the middleman to dictate what religious, or indeed any ideologies are acceptable behaviour.

This will work both ways though, so gays will have to let neo-nazis pop round and stay at their house....interesting results commence...

You understand that neo-nazis don't actually have a problem with homosexuality, yes?

This has happened how many times, exactly?

I think it would be fair to say that there is an element of any community that tends to enjoy the drama, and that some gay people and trannies really love their soaps for a reason.

They aren't implementing a policy of not rejecting people with bad reviews or for legal reasons.

However if you keep rejecting black people and accept white people, then that raises question marks if they all have good reviews.

I'm willing to bet real money that they won't be nearly as unforgiving to Charlotte and Rachel with their delightful nigerian adopted son Oscar, as the are towards Geoffrey and Margaret - you're white, middle class couple that just want to make a little money from their holiday home in the cotswolds.

I stopped reading here - how people have so easily fell for media spin from super right wing 'news papers' is beyond me - it just appears that peoples inner racist & lack of compassion for fellow people has been 'allowed' out into the wild.

OH NOES ITS DA BREXIT. Give it a rest. Many people voted for reasons other than "da immigrunts"...It's about as much our fault that complete idiots didn't bother to commit to a modicum of research to understand the implications, as it is remainers seem to have attracted a bunch of self righteous, whiney little liberals that are hellbent in slowly turning the world into a nanny state that endorses group think.

The problem with the UK is the same as it has always been multiculturalism is a failed project, just as much as our political system is a joke. The only difference is that now people like you have a scape goat for all that ails you.


Racism is rife in the UK, its disgusting, its increased nearly 50% since the brexit vote.

No. It hasn't. Unless you're talking about the number of pakistani rape gangs that groom girls between the ages of 9-13, because they have this insidiuous view that Haram girls are fair game to use and abuse as they please, while their own precious, Hijab wearing jewels are a different breed.

Yeah. I don't see you decrying the values of a hatemongering religion that teaches intolerance & oppression to anyone that doesn't pray five times a day, do I?

- CS - white 30 something male (apparently race matters a lot to ppl on this forum)

That horse you're on...Did it require stilts to get that high up?

Cool. Another OCUK thread where people defend their right to hate gays/brown people/women as if it's totally fine.

This place really has changed in the last few years :(

I don't do hate and intolerance to any one specific quarter. It's just not as much fun.

Oh I remember that, especially his "Why do asian people smell" thread, but GD didn't used to be like this. Or maybe I'm just mis-remembering.

I member star wars! Star wars was kewl! You member han solo? you member chewbacca? I member! You member?

So many attacks *emo tear*

Confirmation biases aside. The commitment is a blackmail to accept their SJW agenda to make 'safe places' or you will lose all your bookings or money and holiday if you are just a customer.

Reading their forums users are of course signing it with mental reservation, but that is dishonest. Many are leaving it, like myself, airbnb won't be getting a penny more from me.

You sir, reaffirm the faith I have in rational thinkers. Or indeed, you would if I ever had any in people.

Lots of crying and squalling for mummy to change my nappy, hoping that someone will validate me

There there CS. I'm sure you'll have your homeland one day. A homeland where everyone has a gender for every day of the week, different coloured hair and wears spandex hotpants, irrespective of how grossly overweight they are. A home where women and men who like to be women can walk down the street, as if it's perfectly acceptable behaviour and shout "Still not ok!"

A home where you can sit around in a peace circle, mutually masturbating while agreeing on how it's currently ok to think - and all while using the correct pronouns that you stated before you went into a little tirade about how much you hate free speech, straight or white people.

Jeez do you remember what you said a moment ago.

Just goes to show the incoherent logic that must go on in your head.
 
I rent out my rooms via airbnb here in Germany, and most of us that do are always fully booked for any arabs/north africans/muslims.

Maybe this is against the terms and conditions, but we continue to do it for our own safety.
 
Then your post makes no sense, about them not caring if customers are leaving. Not a good business model.

I know complex ideas are difficult to understand as demonstrated. Anarchy also isn't a good business model.

From your posts so far, I suspect AirBnB owners have a greater understanding of what is good for their business.

You will break the new rules on Tuesday.

Correct and is clearly a bigoted view which a business is not legally allowed base decisions on within the EU.

AirBnB which can be held responsible for it's subcontractors will now attempt to do something about this.

Wasn't complex at all, you just backtracked.

Airbnb users know what's good for their business and want to choose as the example above, but they can't now unless they lie.

AirBnB owners are the real owners of the business. Not people renting out rooms.

They haven't changed the T&Cs on a whim.
