I think his speech would have had more impact if he had delivered it in the style of Gunnery Sgt. Emil Foley. Not "I need" but "You will!"

Maybe I’ve missed something.

He is the commander of the ship and he is absolutely in control of everything that happens on his plane.

If the problem is with identifying himself as “servant leader” then I still see no trouble.
That’s an excellent aspiration for any leader.

If I missing something, please let me know.

“’This captain abused his power. He treated passengers like kindergarteners.”

Some passengers act like kindergartners. How did he abuse his power? His instructions were reasonable and if obeyed would be in the best interests of the passengers.

Some might think it is gangsta rule in the air but it’s not.

Why are stewardesses now called “flight attendants”? “Steward” and “stewardess” connote care and responsibility, while “flight attendant” has the same ring to it as “gas station attendant.”

What’s the problem? These requests were simple and reasonable.

“’I need everyone to obey the seatbelt sign during the flight for your safety and the safety of everyone around you,’ he continued.

‘I need everyone to obey the commands and the instructions of my flight attendants. And lastly, I ask that we all be respectful of one another.’

He concluded with, ‘Are there any questions?’”

WILD! What a tyrant!
Sounds like the female who wrote this story needs to buy a sense of humor.

I would have asked him if he performed marriages on the flight.

There are Federal laws forbidding smoking on a US aircraft. There are Federal laws requiring passengers to obey crew instructions like "fasten your seat belt".

No mention of "servant leaders" however.

He only said good things. What’s wrung with that? He told people to obey the seatbelt lights and the instructions, cooperate with the flight attendants and be kind to each other. So that’s controversial?

‘Narcissist’ what an overused and misappropriated term thrown about. I bet this caption had previous incidents with some obnoxious morons causing trouble on flights. He did not ask anything unreasonable or inflammatory. Anyone perceiving his little announcement as such is a Woke snowflake. It’s not that complicated to be a civil minded passenger but no shortage of stupidity these days.
