I am quite sure that the accountants in charge at SWA made a decision based on the calculus of how many seats they would eat (pun intended) vs the bad press from another Kevin Smith situation. Funny how being overweight just got political, but that's the world we are living in today. Plenty of anti-woke warriors take advantage of this generous policy, I assure you. The stupid jokes about "identifying as overweight" are dumb. Not because I am offended, I could literally care less, they are just bad jokes. Try harder.
Wowsa! You got Fox News in there, the echo chamber accusation, but no Tucker? You’re slacking. Let’s hope you continue in this direction and we won’t have to hear your same old soap box speech. I’m not wanting to argue in support of this list that you despise. I don’t want to argue it at all. I don’t even want to hear about it. Please stop. Really. It’s old.
