Fuck Airbnb for doing this.

Real talk though, does anyone else NOT like using Airbnb?

I've used Airbnb a couple of times, one was ok, one was slightly sub-par. A close buddy of mine recently related to me a horrible Airbnb episode with a crazy host (a woman obviously). And then all this BS of social justice banning.

I've stayed in lots of hotels in my life (nothing uber high end, mostly Best Western tier and slightly above) and you know what? I like the hotel experience. It's consistent and not much more cost than a decent Airbnb. Often comes with some sort of amenities like a gym, pool/hot tub, restaurant in house, etc.

Things like Airbnb, couchsurfing, hostels, etc. appealed to a younger, more adventurous me, but an older, more settled and financially secure me just wants something that delivers what it promises.

I really dislike the fact that they have my ID.

Hosts sometimes are sloppy on there even if they have good ratings which I don’t like at all; I guess there’s little risk of one person damaging their “brand”.

Then again, I’ve had hosts that were prompt and got me in better accommodations in shorter time than I would get at a hotel.

The reason I gravitate towards the platform is the fact that there’s a lot of centrally located apartments, and also the fact an apartment is a much better place for a party than a hotel room.

If they deny you after the follow-up, you need find a pro-bono lawyer and sue the fuck out of them if there is a legitimate legal case to work with.

This sort of shit has to stop and a case like this needs to get to the Supreme Court; ultimately leading hopefully to the banning of this kind of practice. Large scale companies that have near monopolies on a critical business sector (credit cards, lodging, payment processors, etc) shouldn't be allowed to do this kind of bullshit.

How long before they say we can't have running water? Electricity? A internet connection?

If some faggots can sue a conservative baker for not making fag cakes, we sure as shit can and should sue for being discriminated against because we don't buy into the liberal totalitarian narrative.

This is the next level. They aren't censoring your speech, but your ability to put a roof over your head.

Sorry to hear this.

This is 100% because Silicon Valley is using the SPLC list as a proxy to ban "hate speech" on its platforms.

This is the line currently toed by general counsel advising these companies, and staff/account managers are advised explicitly not to reveal this explanation to affected users.

In my opinion, a legal challenge in a fairly neutral venue is necessary.

This guy was banned from AirBnB for life by renting an apartment that had a footnote saying you had leave the room by certain hours because the business needed it for spa customers. Of course he somehow missed that memo but instead of solving the problem like adults AirBnB just gave him a lifetime ban.

After reading this article I concluded that AirBnB roommate or anything except an "Entire Place" isn't worth the risk of booking because of so many things that could go wrong.

I also think it might be riskier to book with a host who might be a young woman and if anyone asks for your Whatsapp / Kakao Talk / Line it might be worth it to lie and say you don't have them.

Roosh has spent his years fighting the good fight advocating to return sanity to Western civilization. From his books to Reaxxxion Roosh has been in this to win this.

It's really time for more people to get on the fuck Silicon Valley train and stop feeding the matriarchy. I'm down here in Uruguay since December 2016 working on a free speech web hosting company. In this life no one has to choose between silicon valley cesspools or all comers cesspools like Gab that fill up with feds.

Consider what makes this forum work, reputation and low tolerance for shitheads. Intensify that mechanism and you get a Web of Trust. With asymmetric cryptography you can build a persistent identity enforced by your ability to protect your private key. From there people around the world, thanks to the WoT and strong crypto are building alternate institutions and have been for a few years now.

If you are smart, if you have skills, and if your work is helping to keep the Matriarcy functional... it is time to stop doing that. Trump's great, but he's mortal and term limits are a thing. If you hate the fem/cuck state, it is time to start working on and contributing to alternatives that shut the parasites out.

Let's see what they say . If it's ideological , we should start our own platform. Would that be interesting ? Rooshvbnb.com Only allowed for forum users.

Possibly for the best.

After your most famous article it's not impossible that you might walk into the bedroom you've rented only for a 300 pound monster tranny to step in behind you.

I sure as shit hope you never plan to stay in a Airbnb ever again.

Also, I hope you delete all their emails, and cancel all their spam, and take the app off your phone, etc. Maybe keep, screenshots, or save it somewhere, or even print it.

Sounds like some spooky bad juju if you ask me.

Aloha!

If Roosh had European citizenship, or possibly even residency, it'd be easier and cheaper to sue than in the US. And the lawsuit would be more likely to have a positive outcome, because European courts are way less amicable to Silicon Valley multinationals. The same extends to other companies that have banned him that have representation in Europe...

He could also bug them with a GDPR request. I'm pretty sure the reason for banning a user would be considered personal information and thus be GDPR'able.

Roosh should get residency somewhere in the EU.

I've used Airbnb several times and was quite happy... but it was in very conservative countries (Hungary, Japan, Vietnam). I haven't used them in the Trump Age so I imagine they've gone full retard with Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Remember how frustrated we used to be with customer service? I miss those days.

All of these tech companies are built around the principle of algorithms, not people. Instead of a marketing department - big data, and generated memes (that's how the "Keep Calm and Keep Raping" shirt got auto-generated for a feminist who constantly googled "rape"). Instead of professionals policing content - 99% of the "Trust and Safety" department is algorithms. And instead of addressing your complaint - fuck you, there are 10 Million other people in the data base, you're irrelevant.

Asocial, asexual, schizoids building an empire of gears.

SO what if all banks refuse to have you as a customer? I bet you this will happen

I've never used Airbnb. I've used homeaway and vrbo (which is now a part of homeaway). I recently found another called vacasa, which I think is local to the Oregon coast. I use these for holiday travel. I use conventional hotels for work travel.

Irrespective of Roosh himself, that's a worrying thing to happen.

It is some "database engineer" in a cubicle in Berkeley or San Mateo, in a nondescript giant Silicon Valley highrise. He or she is one of a dozen people who are making it their jobs to judge the customer's moral fitness to use their service. If you are a conservative or a woman-hater, you are OUT. This isn't even reached it pinnacle yet. It's a slowly building frenzy in the high tech world.

There wasn't even a debate on Roosh. Here's what happened: Some young angry woman stomped over with a page from his site, waved it around, showed the team, and everybody in the room yelled angrily. A few of the men secretly know that they've read and enjoyed the site, but they wouldn't admit to it or defend him a billion years because they'd instantly lose their jobs. They shut him out with a big cheer. There might even be a small bulliten board with pictures with a title like "Jerks we banned".

It's 100% women-run process and therefore, zero introspection, in fact, if you stopped in and gave them a short conference room talk on "dangers of banning" and "inclusivity" your audience would leave in the first 30 seconds. You'd see glazed mirrors instead of eyes.

These people are as brainwashed as any on the planet. Well, actually they're women. The word "brainwashed" might be an overstatement. Gotta have have a "brain" to be "brainwashed".

Both Vacasa and Homeaway are worthy competitors to Airbnb. Neither of these have a managed account "sign up" that you use to book rentals and make payments. Homeaway has a use rating system (guests can rate rental properties and owners can rate guests on things like cleanliness and respect for properties, etc.). However, homeaway does not have a system where someone at a corporate office can deny your use of the service. Unlike Airbnb, both homeaway and vacasa operate on a more decentralized model of connecting up guests directly with property owners.

I think Homeaway and Vacasa are both better than airbnb for property owners as well. As a property owner, I think homeaway and vacasa are better for attracted higher quality guests than airbnb.

I have used Homeaway (and vrbo) for a decade and have always had positive experience with them. I have never used airbnb and see no reason to do so compared to using homeaway and vacasa. Stories such as this reinforces my desire never to use airbnb.

Having been on both sides of the short term rental/vacation rental equation, I've gotta say that it's possible you seek out apartments that actually allow a party, but as a warning to the rest of you out there, the default is that you are renting a space for yourself and the # of guests you list, no more. There are VERY VERY few spaces listed that allow parties or additional guests beyond what you list.

This is the single biggest issue with AirBnB and short term/vacation rentals in general.

If you want to have a party rent a fucking party space like a normal person, don't rent a place for yourself and then be shocked and angry when the owner isn't happy with you throwing a party in their space.

The unfortunate situation with Roosh is that he writes about bringing all manner of "random" guests back to the places he stays in and even if he didn't specifically write "AirBnB" with the text he essentially is admitting he is breaking the rules.

I hope this works out well for Roosh, but the rest of you should realize that if you're booking a space for yourself you are literally booking it for JUST yourself. If you have some conversation with the owner/agent or book it for 2 then you'll probably be okay, but it's totally false to think you just have the entire run of the place JUST because you paid for it. You have to look at the agreement terms just like ANY other transaction.

A hotel room or using hotelstonight or a service like that is far more appropriate if you're going to go out and try to bring girls back. Even hotels will immediately kick you out of a room you paid for with zero refund if you throw a party and then tell them "what's the problem I can do whatever I want" when the security guys show up to check out what's going on.

I'm not saying what they did to Roosh was right, but I suspect this is the reason and put this out as a fair warning to the rest of you. I also recommend some of the other platforms as they have a longer track record in many cases and they cater to more professional units/owners (AirBnB has all manner of people renting out their apartments against their leases terms and stuff like that).

Guys, use homeaway. It does not require that you sign up for an account like airbnb does.
