A Twitter User Is Getting Roasted For Daring To Judge People's In-Flight Movie Choices
Twitter user @JohnMagary probably thought he was making an innocent twitter post when he wrote the following:
Trying to be more “positive” but recently I was on a long plane ride and almost every normal looking adult was watching, like, Black Widow or Jungle Cruise as their in-flight entertainment. Baby food culture.

Naturally, the responses ranged from "How dare you" to "He's not wrong."
They followed it up with this:
They weren’t watching with their kids. They were watching it very very specifically alone and for themselves. A 40 year old, watching Jungle Cruise or Cruella. This used to be considered embarrassing.

If it seems strange to you that someone cares what someone else may be half-watching on a not-very good screen in a very loud environment, you're not alone. Here are some of the best responses to these conversation-starting tweets,

Concerning Behaivor
It’s a bit concerning when a grown man spies on people’s screens and ridicules them over their choice of entertainment.

Give Us Relief!
Sneering at stuff other people like isn't a personality, I'm afraid.

We are all going through some stuff right now. Let people enjoy things. Even - maybe ESPECIALLY - if that stuff is fairly light and a bit of a relief from the grim realistic dystopia of actual life right now. - 4203 VOTES

Have you considered that maybe you’re making a snap judgement about people based on nothing more than a film choice in a crappy viewing environment that they were probably only half watching? That maybe they also watch other films that would meet with your mighty approval?
