You heard?
Cool story.

That’s why. It’s an at least perceived, possibly true, injustice.
Are you really comparing wearing a face covering to a woman being raped?? Wow

Which FA unions are attempting this? No one wants to wear a mask forever.

My guess is his source is a fellow pilot who heard the same thing from a gate agent named Simone whose best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw a FA testify in congress about it.

It's pretty serious.

If you don’t think the FA unions want the mask, you haven’t been paying attention to the last 2 years. They want masks forever, yes, forever.

“We know from experience that the flying public is ready to adapt to new behaviors when instructions are clear and rules are enforced. Passengers learned to stop smoking, pack minimal fluids in their carry-ons, and turn off their cell phones for engine start and climb. They can readily adjust to wearing a mask if federal agencies clearly and repeatedly define both the expectation and the penalties for non-compliance.” - SARA NELSON

It's probably a conspiracy. I bet Fauci is behind this.

Adios.

No I wasn’t, and I am not. I was trying to get through the posters thick skull why someone may feel bad that someone other than himself/herself is being forced to do something. My point was that a visceral reaction to an injustice perceived or true is why it bothered him. That’s it.

clearly that’s not how people read it. Sorry, I’ll do better next time.
