johndoh42 commented on Spain fines Airbnb €65M: Why the government is cracking down on illegal rentals   euronews.com/travel/2025/... · Posted by u/robtherobber

... because the government is in the pocket of the big hotel chains, which are ruining the country.

Airbnb: World travelers who try to blend in. Hotel: Drunk Brits who puke all over the place.

We have 3 Airbnb flats in our house for 2 years now. Never had an issue with any of the renters; But, the lights in the stairwell are working now, the door locks work, electricity is stable, and I haven't seen a cockroach in a long time.

Meanwhile the guests from the hotel across the street keep us awake every freakin' night.

Bonus: Those 3 flats had been sitting empty for nearly 10 years, just like the other ~30 thousand flats sitting empty in the city.

10 years of solving a problem that didn't exist, and creating a few dozen new ones in the process.

Not evening mentioning the massive security risk they pose; Well, I did now.

Sadly that ban also hit three of our our games that help victims cope with trauma. :(

Please write to your representative:

Dear [Representative's Name],

I am writing to formally request an investigation into the activities of Collective Shout, an organization whose censorship-driven campaigns have caused measurable harm to artists, survivors, and vulnerable communities. Under the guise of protecting women and children, they have erased trauma narratives, suppressed creative expression, and bullied platforms into enacting broad, opaque bans. Their actions disproportionately affect marginalized voices and bypass democratic discourse in favor of ideological policing. There is growing concern that their influence is rooted more in religious moralism than evidence-based advocacy. I urge your office to examine their funding, methods, and societal impact with urgency and transparency.

Sincerely, [Your Full Name] [Your Address / Constituency]

u/johndoh42
