Woman rants about free speech as she and companion are made to deboard flight over racist and homophobic slurs: "Elon Musk is the f*cking king!"

And the right-wing examples are insane tantrums and fistfights against completely innocent and random co-passengers in response to the request for reasonable public behavior. As opposed to this case where a “visibly agitated” person made a single mean, but ultimately civil statement to a couple of very powerful and evil public figures.

But it does seem weirdly as if the sets of people who (a) are so obnoxious in public that they’re liable to get tossed off a flight [*], and (b) who reach for the F-word and the N-word at a moment’s notice when challenged, and (c) are suckers for authoritarian cults of personality, overlap very strongly.

Well, one could argue that doing untold damage to the country a person loves is a provocation of sorts…
