  • Ben Breit. Global Trust Communications Director at Airbnb

He banned Lauren Southern for being "affiliated with hate groups".

When asked to explain the specifics of the ban - meaning to identify the specific hate groups and the nature of the affiliation in order to establish a rule violation - his only response is:

  1. "literally googling her name brings all this up"

  2. "if you'd like me to do that job for you and send you links, let me know"

So he's a condescending cunt, like your typical redditor, but with a big salary.

Allow me to translate:

  • "We didn't actually work up any rule violation. Instead, we were sitting around in a meeting and someone with blue hair said we should ban Lauren Southern because she was a "nazi and a fascist". I demanded the highest standards of evidence to prove up this allegation, which was met when said blue hair pulled up her wiki page and read the 1st line, describing Southern as "alt right". That was enough for me. I approved the ban right then and there. Then some fascist prick from Tucker asks me if I actually investigated whether she was affiliated with "hate groups" or not because technically I guess that is what our policy says. The fucking gall of this man! SHE'S ALT-RIGHT, okay? What more evidence do you need? I'm not going to waste my time digging in the historical archives to prove to you beyond a reasonable doubt that Adolf Hitler was a nazi, okay? I have better things to do, like talking about my cat in zoom meetings between banning Trumpers."

Checked this fuck's LinkedIn.

This guy is a 24/7 PR fuck. Funny thing? He was the Sheriff for Cook County. Knowing this guy and how he sounds, he's probably only been in the "safe" side of Chicago/Cook County and maybe occasionally dipping his toes on the "bad" 13/50 side.

I guess his next stop after working for Airbnb is to be a politician since he seems prone to getting careers in lying.
