It's news because of why they were turned away. American's being targeted for being American is newsworthy, especially in context of a global virus that doesn't discriminate, a flight where the others were allowed with quarantine, and in Italy which is notorious for its own poor response to the pandemic.
Nobody cares that rich people fly private, the same way a billion people without running water don't care that you have a car and internet. No inequality that's suddenly exposed unless you were clueless about the world. But you're right, this isn't going anywhere.
- vmception 6y agoa direct flight from Colorado across the Atlantic to a mediterranean island is interesting to me and other people have pointed out what kind of plane would likely be capable of doing that. you were not capable of understanding that or chose not to despite repeated clarifications. hard to tell which is worse
- manigandham 6y agoYou being interested in that flight while others aren't isn't an example of socioeconomic inequality, exposed or otherwise. And your responses are full of personal vitriol. Let's end it here.
