Airbnb blocks white nationalists attending hate rally

After a series of raw-throated public confrontations earlier this year, Charlottesville is bracing for an influx of white nationalists from across the country to Saturday’s “Unite the Right” rally.

But visitors might have a problem nailing down accommodations. As city leaders worked overtime Monday trying to defuse an increasingly tense situation, the room-sharing company Airbnb quietly booted users planning to use the service to find housing.

The company confirmed they had taken action in a statement to NBC29: “When through out background check processes or from input of our community we identify and determine that there are those who would be pursuing behavior on the platform that would be antithetical to the Airbnb Community Commitment, we seek to take appropriate action including, as in this case, removing them from the platform.”

That stance didn’t sit well with the rally’s organizer, Jason Kessler.

“This is outrageous and should be grounds for a lawsuit,” Kessler told The Washington Post in an email Monday night. “It’s the racial targeting of white people for their ethnic advocacy.” Kessler added the rally “is opposed to the historical and demographic displacement of white people. Would Airbnb cancel the service of black nationalists or Black Lives Matter activists for their social media activity? Of course not!”

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which monitors “hate groups and other extremists,” warns that the rally could be “the largest hate-gathering of its kind in decades in the United States.”

“It’s the racial targeting of white people for their ethnic advocacy.” Kessler added the rally “is opposed to the historical and demographic displacement of white people." 

 

"Ethnic advocacy" is actually racism and white supremacy. 

"historical and demographic displacement of white people" Lol like the Europeans who wiped out most of the Native culture when they invaded this entire part of the world... hmmm. Or perhaps how racist laws in the US segregated demographics, the effects can still be seen in cities 'till this day. 

Removing LOSER Confederate statues that should have never existed isn't an attack on white people you ****ing idiots.

I wonder why this kind of public hate-gathering is on the rise? :usrs:

I'm not really sure, but I heard it has something to do with something that happened on the 8th of November, 2016. Not 100% sure..prob just rumors :selena:
