|    Charlottesville: MORE BAD NEWS FOR TRUMP    |

      XPost: alt.fan.rush-limbaugh, alt.gossip.celebrities, alt.checkmate       XPost: alt.rush-limbaugh       From: fuktrump@gmail.com              Airbnb isn't letting neo-Nazis take advantage of its services, Gizmodo       reported early Monday.                     The home-sharing platform has deleted the accounts of suspected attendees of       the United The Right, an event to be held in Charlottesville, Virginia this       Saturday. The event is being organized by The Daily Stormer, a racist       website.              Gizmodo cited tweets about the issue that included screenshots of emails from       Airbnb about the user's account being in "violation of our Terms of Service."              Airbnb's terms include a non-discrimination policy called the "Airbnb       Community Commitment." This commitment, which all Airbnb users must sign on       to in order to use the platform, is about belonging and was part of an ad       campaign last year. It came after several reports alleging racism among its       hosts.              "In 2016 we established the Airbnb Community Commitment reflecting our belief       that to make good on our mission of belonging, those who are members of the       Airbnb community accept people regardless of their race, religion, national       origin, ethnicity, disability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, or       age," reads a statement from an Airbnb spokesperson to Gizmodo.              A user, cited by Gizmodo, alleged that Airbnb's actions are discriminatory       because they are "cancelling the reservations of customers based upon their       political views."              5 Aug       Illegal Aryan @Illegal_Aryan       Looks like Airbnb is permanently deactivating the account of anyone booking a       room in Charlottesville if they think it's for the rally.
