Airbnb goes to war with Trump in prime time with State of the Union ad blasting 's***hole' [tr]
UK Daily Mail ^ | January 30, 2018 | David Martosko

Airbnb has unveiled a new ad in advance of Tuesday's State of the Union address, calling for the United States to 'open doors, not build walls.' The ad throws subtle jabs at President Donald Trump for his recent comments about 's***hole' countries in the Third World. 'We heard there's been some expletive-filled interest in these beautiful destinations,' the ad begins, showing scenes from Haiti, El Salvador and Africa. 'We also know a few people who would love to show you around,' the ad says. 'Let's open doors, not build walls.'

So air bnb feels they need to go out of their way, to prove that they are liberal.

Why do so many businesses do this?

The ad shows favorable views of Haiti, El Salvador and Africa in an attempt to drum up tourism interest in places where Airbnb has home-sharing listings

Really smart to go to dangerous ***holes like Haiti, El Salvador, and Africa stay in someone's home when there might be no security or proper utilities.

“Get Woke” Now that there’s funny. Pretty hip with todays terminology. I’ve finally figured out what blm means. Blatant lies/manipulation. ;-)

The group-think is very strong, particular at tech companies. Mostly though, they can get away with it. Unzipping their virtue signaling and progressivism, and stroking it in public has never got them in trouble, and their small circle of friends congratulate them on it.

Taylor Swift is a smart business woman and has avoided making political comments. What is comical is that many liberals are not satisfied with that. They want her to come out publicly against Trump or, as far as they are concerned, it is as if she is coming out for him.

Those tactics have been used before in history.

Fancy version of Craigslist where one can list one’s home for short term occupancy.

I wasn’t inclined to use their business before this, and they have now placed themselves on my list of business to avoid.

I've used them. You're right; never again. There's several great competitors. Overnight, FlipKey, and HomeAway to name three if anyone ever finds themselves in a short term rental search situation.

Gotta laugh at the turd world s-oles. They need to take responsibility and build their own paradises where everyone wants to go.... instead of abandoning their s-oles to go to a foreign land and turn them into the s-oles just like where they came from.

AND the libs want open borders so America too can be a s-ole? That thought is beyond reason!

This is what happens when businesses hire snarky hipster wankers to staff their media/PR departments.

That interpretation of the BLM acronym applies to both the
“Black Lives Matter” AND “Bureau of Land Management”.

Absolutely BRILLIANT!

No, they just make it easier for racists to refuse to rent to black people.
