Abolish Such Bias Against 外国人 - An Airbnb Situation

Anon: "Morning."

Anon: "He kept evading my questions trying to his his bias until I finally got him."

Kyle: "Please share more of the story thanks. What happened? Why? How did it make you feel?"

Anon: "It is a vacation as you know, so I have decided to go to Weifang to spend some quality time with my girlfriend. As usual, booking the room is at the top of the to-do priority list these days, so I kept looking for all the available apartments in that neighborhood I intend to stay. This guy was outspoken and straightforward to say such a thing. Keyle, how do u think I feel???? I haven’t left China since 2018. Now ending up in an unpleasant situation and dilemma like this pisses me off."

Kyle: "I understand, I'm asking you for the story.."

Anon: "Really devastated."

Kyle: "I just got denied by my taxi this morning heh."

Anon: "There should be some awareness programs to abolish such bias against 外国人."

Kyle: "Sorry to hear that. It's very challenging , even many foreigners won't admit its problematic."

Anon: "I am really shocked. Bias is getting serious more and more. There should be a solution. Letting it unsolved is of no useeeee."

Kyle: "Just stay silent bro ? if you don't like it go back to your own country ?"

Anon: "It is. Everyone knows that. They just keeps ignoring the truth."

Kyle: "Anything else you'd like to add? Can I share it anonymously?"

Anon: "If such policies were clear and formal, I would not object or say a thing. It is ignorance that let others behave in such an unfair and humiliating way."

Kyle: "Yes and fear ?"

Anon: "A foreigner is not “virus.” You are not a “virus.“ “Virus” is a virus. That’s the story I want to share. Kindly do. Last one. Just now."

Kyle: "What app is it? Private landlord?"

Anon: "Airbnb. Yes, a property landlord."
