It as if a spell has been cast on people thinking this is somehow 'winning' when it only provides more 'justification' to enforce mask mandates. The ambiguity of issue defeats resistance because now the issue of obscenity is injected into the act. Not only is the mask mandate given cover, but it is provided more credibility because of the public obscenity.

The only way this type of mocking absurdity works is from a position of power. From the position of being oppressed and forced to comply is not being in a position of power. This person should have recognized this and instead was an absolute fool. He didn't win over anyone on the plane because the obscenity of it dominated everyone's outrage to it.
