    Well I must not be that far off because the flight attendant even said "we'll get you on the next flight" or whatever he said in a very calm voice. My point is this shouldn't be such a GOTCHA!! moment for the right. It's not that big of a deal, and people in public places sometimes get in a political debate, and sometimes people get way too emotional. On an airline yes... the flight attendant needs to intervene quick. However this isn't the referendum that the OP and Project Veritas or whatever are saying it is.

    It also speaks to the "Cancel Culture" buzzword that the right loves to claim victim to. This is exactly the type of situation that constitutes as Cancel Culture where someone uses modern tech to catch someone saying or doing something out of context, and ruining their lives just so you can get some internet clicks, and a scalp. In larger cases it's a comedian who has a poorly pressure tested joke that doesn't land and comes off as offensive and that leads to him losing gigs, etc. In this case it's a regular woman who could lose her job and livelihood now as a professor or nurse or whatever she does.

    Not saying this woman was in the right, and shouldn't have been kicked off this plane (no she wasn't right, and probably should have been kicked off or relocated), but the right cheering on a cancel culture tactic like this is obnoxious, and definitely hypocritical to say the least.

    My immediate thought when he said that was that he was just trying to get her off the plane as quickly and quietly as possible. Pretty sure if you get booted off a plane, getting on the next flight ain't that easy.

    Well I mean the OP said himself he's a Trump voter. Call it "cheering" or what, but clearly he seems to be happy enough with a older liberal woman getting kicked off of a plane in order to create a thread about it.

    Who cares? Of all the "Karen gets kicked off a plane" videos we've seen this one is about the most uneventful I've seen. Only reason people give a sh$t on the right is because she looks like the prototypical white college professor looking liberal. The fact that we can so clearly see the flight attendants de-escalation training in action is because it's calm enough for us to see it clearly.

    Didn't you literally say like two weeks ago that you are looking forward to voting for Trump or something very similar? I'm a little crazy, but I'm not that crazy.

    1) I cannot stand Trump
    2) I am not a US citizen
    3) I didn't say what you imagine I said

    He said he likes the guy who echoed Trump's lies, and kissed his butt in Florida for 4 years. You know......Don't Say Gay DeSantis.

    I think you are the Karen the way you keep tagging me with your BS. Get a life dude, and stay in Germany you Cuckoo. We don't need more Karen's here.

    Oh that’s right… Waaaaayyy better choice of character and respectable political alignment. My bad. How dare I imagine such a poor representation of someone’s politics.

    I really hate Bernie… but AOC is great!!

    Nope. I have nothing against Germans. I have some ancestry from there, but they came over before the Hitler reign luckily. I have a problem with you.

    The way you talk is just like when xenophobes talk about "that Mexican". The funny thing is that you don't realize it.

    No, I specifically called for you to stay in Germany. I could care less if 100,000 good people came over from Germany, Mexico, Africa, or anywhere else. I'm pro immigration and hate racist GOP policies categorizing groups, such as Mexicans, Muslims, or anyone else they fear who isn't as white as them. You just decided to try and twist it like you always do. Get help.

    This is an old freakout. I don't know why OP is reposting it.
