One constant I've noticed is they seem to be a vast majority from states where the doom and gloom is most prominent and lock downs and masks have been mandatory the longest and welcomed.
Makes sense and most likely true. Then the opposite must likely be true for the other side and where they are from. Scary times with a frightening divide.

Mandatory mask requirements are a reminder that we do not live in a free country anymore. This isn't hard to see that the masks and flight attendant assaults are related.
Agree 100%

Some people should visit "not free countries" to understand what that really means.

You aren’t painting with a broad brush, you are trying to throw buckets of paint on the canvas. Do you also play gasoline tag while lighting a Virginia Slims Menthol?

Do you take the word (or signature) of the AMT or A&P as gospel, or do you insist on watching them work on any plane you will be flying? Uh oh, you show to a Jet with the aircraft MX release already signed. Do you call station mx to send the AMT back out to re-accomplish in your presence?

Oh crap, you trolled and I responded. Bad on me.

Do you seriously not see the difference between an interpersonal conflict and a mechanic completing a skilled labor task? Very poor analogy. Having said that, my default position is to give my flight attendants support until or unless they display some obvious reason not to. Going bezerk over a mask issue would fall into that category….One warning, then hand out the card. If no compliance I have them removed if still on the ground, or have a CS supervisor meet the jet when we land. Under no circumstances do I want any of my crew getting into a ****ing contest that ends up on YouTube. Simple.

I'd say that is true also.

I emigrated from a “not free” country. A very “not free” country. I’m of the belief that in the U.S. of A we no longer live in a free country nor do we live in a democracy anymore as that would require elections that aren’t tampered with. Chew on that.

The problem with your agreement with Wingedbeast is that you’re wrong and he’s right.

Half the people making the decisions and rules in America are corrupt. The other half are stupid. Everyone else seems destined to have their quality of life negatively affected by this combination of corrupt and stupid...and here we are.

Just saying—but you can’t have half as stupid, half as corrupt and then have “everybody else.” That math doesn’t work. LOL
