United Airlines is banning employees from wearing flag pins with anything but the USA flag. Fair enough, but why now?

There have been a countless number of viral incidents whereby airline employees were spotted wearing Palestinian flag pins, and of course this caused an uproar online, when people would blast pictures of these flight attendants all over social media, and call them names.

Ah, because of fuckwits and the airline having no spine.
