As everyone may know by now, United Airlines recently underwent a massive public scandal which has been extremely publicized. So what really happened?
Apparently, United Airlines overbooked a flight, and needed someone to get off the plane in order for everyone to be able to fly. It has been said that one man in particular initially volunteered to change flights, but after he got on the plane changed his mind, and wanted to stay. United Airlines was visibly unhappy with this decision, and forcefully yanked this man out of his seat and dragged him out of the plane.
This type of airplane treatment, especially by United, is unheard of, which is why so many people were shocked by this. It was extremely off-putting seeing the video that other passengers took of this innocent man being dragged off the plane, so I decided to look further into it to see if there were any other details.
Upon looking into the scandal more, I was shocked to find that the Internet had done what the Internet always tends to do - it had created many different memes directly addressing the scandal and completely making fun of United Airlines.
