Whats funny is under most antiairbnb regulation. The "small guy renting out a room" is largely unaffected. They usually still allow renting out rooms or entire residinces that count as a primary residence.

Yeah it's the classic capitalist propaganda that convinces people to have solidarity with capital by talking about your sweet little neighborhood small business or whatever. Just cause? That's the state forcing your nana to let that deadbeat live in her attic in perpetuity, never mind that the rule doesn't apply to that situation in ten different ways. Airbnb? What about that sweet old retiree just trying to keep up their house? Etc.
