@Susan1028
Your post was not directed to me but I feel compelled to write to you.
Wake up @Susan1028 ... please WAKE UP .......
Haven't you read @Cormac0 's last post on this thread ? I repeat it for you.
QUOTE from memory
If a corporation worth several billion dollars does not vet guests, it is certainly not because they can't afford to do it.
UNQUOTE
What is it then Susan that you don't understand here ? If they can afford to do it and they don't do it ,
It is ONLY because they don't WANT to do it.
They don't want to do it Susan .
They don't want to do it .
They don't want to do it .
They don't want to do it .....
Do you understand that ?
THEY DON'T WANT TO VET GUESTS
And you think your prayers are going to change something to this situation ?
I know it doesn't make sense to YOU as a host that they don't want to do it because you cannot imagine that AirBnB can deliberately put you, your house , your family, your dog , your cat, all your belongings at risk.
But it is the dire truth, Susan . I wasn't convinced four days ago when I returned on this forum. But now I'm fully convinced.
And believe my long experience in corporate scammers, this is not even as dire as the full truth gets.
Of course, they will never ever say it so openly because you would rightly feel abused.
It would be like the Academy of Medicine suddenly declaring " We Physicians want to officially apologize in front of the nations of the world. We have lied for decades and even centuries. As the great genius, philosopher, mathematician, lawyer, philologist Leibniz wrote in 1710, human beings do have innate faculties for self healing which can only express themselves in full swing either in an appropriate food environment, that food environment which was prevailing before the invention of agriculture, or in the absence of daily food intoxication, such as during a voluntary or involuntary fast "
Can you imagine any corporation making a statement that would result in totally destroying their own reputation ?
Capitalist AirBNB will never try to SERIOUSLY prevent the disorder / thrashing of your personal belongings after the departure of the guest.
Nor will capitalist medicine ever try to SERIOUSLY prevent the disorder / thrashing of your immune system by agrobusiness.
The world is not just rainbows and butterflies. But it is Chesky's ultimate goal to have you believe it.
Still not convinced ?
Suffice to read between the lines of their last press communiqué : AirBnb has just been given a super opportunity to acknowledge the huge flaws in their model and they completely failed the test.
They failed it LIVE . In front of your eyes.
What else do you need to make your own opinion ?
And why would they offer the community such a crass PR exercice in the Orinda case, if their real intentions was to overhaul and redress their corporate strategy ?
YES they will not vet guests and they will continue to not vet guests until such time as the US COURT OF JUSTICE will say :
"Mr Chesky, you now have to STOP treating your hosts as if you could freely dispose of their belongings for your oversized ambitions "
