#IndiGOunrulypassanger
So, guess what? I stumbled upon this viral Indigo video, and man, it's wild!
An unruly passenger flipping out on the pilot after a delay announcement.
You know the drill - comments section lit up with the usual "Indians are becoming intolerant" chatter. Guilty as charged, I found myself nodding along after watching all those crazy videos of Indian passengers going off on flight crews and fellow travelers over the tiniest things.
But then, hold up a minute. Let's talk reality check. I ride the city bus every day, and it's a snail's pace - 35 minutes for a measly 7 KM. Shouldn't we all be losing our cool? Or how about the cab from home to Narengi? A whopping hour for just 20 KM. Yet, no one's throwing punches at the driver for the delays. So, where are these supposedly intolerant Indians living? Not in my bus or cab, that's for sure.
The plot thickens. Ever noticed how these "Intolerant Indian" stories always seem to pop up from specific zones? Traffic points with bikers and four-wheelers arguing with cops, airports where folks go head-to-head with security, and flights turning into verbal battlefields with the crew and co-passengers. Sure, there might be more drama elsewhere, but these zones steal the spotlight.
Now, why are we hearing more about intolerance from these specific places? Is it just curiosity getting the better of us? And hold on - is this intolerance thing exclusive to India, or is it a global gig?
Let's take a peek at the USA's stats. Since COVID-19 crashed the party, there's been a crazy surge in unruly passengers in flights. Last year alone, a whopping 5,978 incidents, way above the previous four years. Turns out, intolerance isn't throwing an India-only party; it's a global shindig fueled by the pandemic.
Now, connecting the COVID-19 dots. Remember those viral videos? Passengers duking it out with crews over masks, throwing fists for COVID-19 tests - all cheered on by millions online. It's like they got a ticket for a public freak-out and wanted validation from the internet.
Even though COVID-19 has taken a back seat, the scars linger. Every time an unruly passenger goes off, videos go viral, media and social media swoop in, and bam - instant celebrities.
So, here's the scoop. It's not just a law and order issue; it's post-COVID-19 trauma messing with our heads. We need some shrink action, stat, to figure this out.
