I mean, people have a lot going on behind the scenes, especially during times of societal stress (like covid).
I'm sure we've all experienced ourselves getting angry at other people for small things due to stresses/problems unrelated to the actual incident.
- oaiey 5y agoI am pretty sure the inner US political struggle plays in here a lot (as stress). But all of that does not excuse offloading on a stewardess, waitress or delivery guy.
- henrikschroder 5y agoSure, but impulse control is a thing most humans have. And sure, violence can solve problems and let you get away with doing things, but I'm utterly fascinated by people being belligerent on planes. You are literally locked into a metal tube together with everyone else. If you make enough trouble, you will be dragged out of the plane by police, either before takeoff, or right after landing. There are no other scenarios. Airline crew will not back off. You will do as told, or the plane won't take off. It doesn't matter how right you are, or how angry you are.
