If I'm not wrong, People with Russian ethnicity and Ukranian (or Latvian, or Moldavan) citizenship are still allowed to use Airbnb, therefore your former claim is false. Most of the older people living there had born in the USSR in fact and many of them are still allowed to use the platform.
This is not a problem of race or of "Airbnb wants to cancel my culture". This is a consequence of sanctions, that are in turn a consequence of invading a country to start a genocide and destroy and loot as many as possible.
Companies are free to not operate in every country of the planet, and can close their office in North Korea or Russia, or stop doing business with anybody, at any time, by any reason. I can understand that in some countries the boundaries between companies and government are blurred, but is not the case of AirBnb.

So you are calling for the punishment of people who have protested the criminal regimes and had to flee Russia and Belarus to save their lives? Just yesterday there was an assessment on Twitter that advancement on Kiev stalled because Belarus partisans kept disrupting railway lines. Now you support AirBnb decision to refuse those partisans service, if they'd ever need to escape the country. That's .. just wow.
When I was young, I thought how could it be that European countries have turned their backs on Jews fleeing the Nazi Germany. But now I see a lot of that very kind of people, very content with their virtue now they 'punished' evil russians.
Hint: If you really want to force Putin to stop the war, tell EU and US governments to stop buying oil and gas from Putin for hundreds of billions of euros every year.
People who willingly stay in Russia, should be punished regardless of their position, because they fund the aggressor's army with their taxes and even fines, which they pay for their anti-government activities.
