At first it sounds like a typical case of bad behavior aboard airplanes.

The Mexico City International Airport acknowledged in a statement Friday that a man had opened an emergency exit and walked out on a wing of a plane that was parked and waiting for takeoff Thursday.

The airport said the man had been turned over to police.

But dozens of fellow passengers signed a written copy of a statement saying the airline made them wait for four hours without ventilation or water while the flight was delayed. According to photos of the statement posted online, fellow passengers said he acted “to protect everyone, with the support of everyone.”

    Is everything fucked after the pandemic? I’m from India and I’ve heard some very bad stories about both plane and train travels.

          It’s essentially a libertarian “paradise” of zero regulations and everyone trying to get one over on everyone else. Pollution is out of control, the cities have a few extremely nice and wealthy areas while everything else is slums and chemical plants.

            Or it’s just covered in trash.

            Granted, I’ve only been to a couple regions, but omg. It’s insane how much literal garbage I’ve seen (or people just throwing shit on the ground) at beaches, national parks, religious monuments…

            I follow the news and very little internal politics of other countries make it here. I don’t know dick about the current situation in Cambodia or shit about what’s up in Congo. Do you really expect people to have a perfect grasp on every country?

            Do you follow the news at all?

            Not intentionally, no. All news sucks.
