I try not to pick sides when it comes to socio-political issues like abortion and gun control. It’s not a good business strategy to isolate yourself from a portion of the market. But due to recent circumstances and the fact that I don’t really have a business, I realized I can no longer stay silent on an issue that I hold dear. Reclining in airplanes. The right to recline is a hill that I will gladly murder on. Anti-recliners. . . You’re wrong. I’ve never met a more ignorant group of individuals than those that think their right to knee space trumps my right to recline the seat. Anti-recliners are more than welcome to not recline themselves, but it’s unconstitutional for them to foist their idiotic beliefs on those that wish to be comfortable while flying. If god didn’t want people to recline, he wouldn’t have created airplanes with seats that reclined. The reality is that even if anti-recliners got their wish, pro-recliners would still figure out a way to get comfortable. They would just resort to unsafe methods that could put their lives and the lives of those around them in jeopardy. Do you really want Kenneth from 13b laying in the middle of the aisle? Do you know what would happen if the airplane hit turbulence and Kenneth turned into a meat rocket? Believe you me, nothing good. In the end, we’re all in the same god forsaken fart box flying through the sky, one bad decision away from total disaster. Let’s figure this out. #photounrelated #Matt2024
