Shitty baggage handlers aren’t a threat to passenger safety.

(Also: RIP you beautiful guitars and cellos unjustly sacrificed)

You say that, but at least one person has died as a result of baggage handlers destroying their wheelchair.

A threat to passenger safety?

Which behaviour? Not wearing a mask? Have you been on an airplane since the pandemic started?

My experience has been:

You have to wear a mask in airports, EXCEPT while close to a vending machine and eating.

You have to wear a mask on airplanes EXCEPT while eating and drinking food provided by the airline.

I'm pro-mask, I think they help protecting others, especially workers that don't really have a choice (eg: cashiers), I'm pro-vaccine to protect one's own health and prevent health care system collapse, but as far as I am concerned masks in airports and airplanes (and requirements for vaccines on airplanes in Canada) is a joke and some ass-covering from politicians, which somehow trickled down into virtue signaling of "which side" people are.

Meanwhile in Europe, Ryanair advertises its pre-order food service as the legal way to fly (mostly) unmasked.

I’m as masked as you can be while also drinking wine, i.e. mask on between sips, but there’s a lot of bad faith on many sides here.

Heh. Compare with the (entirely reasonable IMO) sense of entitlement of a pre-2001 passenger: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSb5S1_B2YA
