"Let's go Brandon" is now supposedly "speech that supports the insurrection / violence against the US government."
And this one thinks she should have a say in who pilots commercial aircraft.#LunaticFringe #BeyondParody pic.twitter.com/HxNcBqjGTd

Don’t kowtow to this nonsense.

Do nothing to this pilot. Karen just needed to vent to look important.

AA please don’t cave to every Karen

Don’t fire your pilots for being conservative or criticizing Biden. We won’t have any pilots left. As if the thousands of flight cancellations aren’t enough already. @AmericanAir do the right thing. https://t.co/OW1kS1KdV5

Hope he and everyone else gets a raise for having to deal with Karen passengers such as this one.

If you take ANY action against these pilots and crew members because this Karen complained about her overprotected sensibilities, I promise you I will never fly @AmericanAir again, and this’ll make the rounds in the media until you lose 40%+ of your customer base

Not worth it
I'm an Executive Platinum, have been for nearly 7 years, flying nearly 150k miles a year pre-covid. You will lose a loyal customer if you punish this pilot for exercising his 1st amendment. pic.twitter.com/mkB34D1MO2
