This reads like satire. My favorite part:

In other words, Airbnb has such a small impact that even if the number of listings doubled, rent in the city would only increase by 1.8%.

From the Harvard Business Review article:

This means that, in aggregate, the growth in home-sharing through Airbnb contributes to about one-fifth of the average annual increase in U.S. rents and about one-seventh of the average annual increase in U.S. housing prices.

Guarantee if Harvard research had found that something like Obamacare was responsible for 20% of the increase in rent prices across the entire United States, you would not hesitate to rush here to make a thread about it.
