Discrimination in airbNb

I hear that airbNb has removed listings owned by Jewish homeowners in the disputed territories of the West Bank. They have not removed the listings owned by the other religious groups in the area. They have not removed the listings of homeowners in any other disputed regions of the world. They also have not removed the listings of owners in any of the many countries where being LGBTQ is illegal (in some punishable by death). There was a recent post “racism vs return” that got a lot of comments regarding how morality plays a role (or not) in business decisions. I’m wondering if any airbNb hosts have or are considering moving their listings to other STR platforms. I asked my parents about it and they are not.
