    capitol riot means a covid19 petri dish; we need another lockdown.
    we have streaming and don’t need to travel or go to a commercial theater and avoid
    covid19, mass shooting (gun sales doubled in 2020), police killing nonwhites like George Floyd, and exploding RVs like in Nashville, capitol rioters bringing pipe bombs

      That’s right, I’m starting to get on board with the Democrats, shut down the whole country, restrict those that opposed that side at all excetera. Good for Airbnb for cancelling people’s trips Retreats Etc. Flood control, controlled by the government in the news. You’re right. Shut this country down completely Pier. Except for travelers / the border excetra of course. Oh yeah, and the protesters / writers about police Injustice, and or conservative / Republican opposition . I guess that would be restricting or attacking American values or something

    This is terriable. Air BNB is a puppet of the us goverment talking orders under the verbage of guidance, saying blocking, and working profiling, outages, and govement assisted responses for several years. Listen to it twice. i hope were not going to agree to lose our rights for our own good and have them returned in the future. This is the new age of corperate goverment.

I remember when we had to cancel our trip back in March because of covet, glad we didn’t reschedule it, Airbnb, about now. Control people. We all know what it’s about oh, no matter which size preaching against it

    I understand this as a business decision, but anyone that can’t see the problematic precedent that this and other recent big tech actions sets needs to open their eyes. Congress needs to draft legislation to create rules around what large tech companies can and can’t do when it comes to de-platforming.
