I know a lot of minorities that won't use ABB because they don't wanna deal with some last minute glitch caused by some racist ass host.
Just remember this works both ways, if they refuse alt right, then they can refuse anyone for any reason. Remember those white only signs?

One can say the same about someone attending an immigrant or pro-Muslim rally to a much higher degree. The chances of getting raped or murdered are much greater.

The mental leaps that it would take to harmonize this thread, the "Google blacklists conservative employee" thread, and the "Should a business be permitted to refuse services..." thread speak volumes as to how results-driven people's opinions are about the degree of freedom business owners should be permitted to exercise.

I know I'm consistent across all three.

So you are fine if AirBnb denied access for people attending a BLM event?

I trust they will treat people using Air BnB to attend other racist events the same way. Such as refusing to rent to anyone going to a NAACP or BLM event.

BLM & Antifa (the true fascists) have both known to be violent, and destructive at their riots/"protests". I would think they pose more of a threat to AirBNB hosts than any "white supremacist". When was the last time you heard of a white supremacist rally at all, or better yet violence at one? The lib media would be all over it 24/7/365.

All racist/militant groups should be called out. BLM and antifa too.

NAACP and BLM has never been violent nor have they condoned violence. The only people who believe that are people who condone bad behavior from law enforcement. NAACP and BLM has always denounced violence against anyone.

The White Supremacists needs to be held accountable for their actions. The are a bigger threat to the safety of this country then any other terrorist group out there. Fox and #45 would never admit it but that doesn't make it not true.
since being violent or condoning violence is your criteria- can you show where this particular group in question has been violent or condoned violence?

Is the AC technician gonna make me fill out a 30 page form to make sure we agree on all political views before he will fix my air conditioning unit?
