Woman refuses truther Steve Kirsh’s offer of $100,000 to remove mask on flight

Masks on planes? Is that still a thing? I’ve only travelled once by plane in the last three years and never donned the muzzle. I know plenty of other people who travelled maskless during the faux pandemic. Nothing was said. Yet here we are, in 2023, with passengers actually choosing to cover their faces and restrict their oxygen supply whilst flying. 

This story about truther Steve Kirsch offering a woman $100k for taking off the mask could be seen as funny but the mainstream media are, of course, branding Kirsch’s actions as ‘creepy’. Are they tarring him with the pervy brush because they really think he was out of order or could it be because he’s known for being an ‘anti-vaxxer’ due to his campaigning against the Covid-19 jabs? 

The Independent reported that the American entrepreneur claimed the incident occurred on a Delta Air Lines service. In a series of tweets, he said that he had offered a fellow passenger money to remove the face mask she was wearing. Mr. Kirsch claimed he “started the bidding at $100” and eventually offered $100,000. One of his tweets read: 

“I am on board a Delta flight right now. The person sitting next to me in first class refused $100,000 to remove her mask for the entire flight. No joke. This was after I explained they don’t work. She works for a pharma company.”

The paper went on to say that “the self-proclaimed ‘truth-teller’ and ‘critical thinker’ added: “And I pointed out that when she removed the mask for eating and drinking, she could be infected with one breath. So she had full disclosure. She took off her mask as soon as the breakfast was served!!!! Because everyone knows you can’t get infected while you are eating!!”

Critics on social media were quick to brand Mr Kirsch’s remarks unsavoury.

“Ew. Do you make a habit of offering money to random women to remove coverings from their bodies mid-air?” replied former Democrat state representative nominee, Jess Piper.

Infectious disease doctor Alastair McAlpine commented: “Stop bugging people who are minding their own business with your creepy nonsense.”

The article added that “masks became an ideological battle ground during the Covid-19 pandemic, with some people in the US protesting against rules stipulating they had to be worn on public transport. There were numerous incidents of passengers getting kicked off flights for refusing to wear a face covering.”

What these mainstream articles all fail to mention is that paper face masks have been proven time and time again not to work and to even be dangerous. Kirsch knows this. 

Kirsch said next time he travelled by plane, he’d make sure he’d sit next to someone who’d invested in Silicon Valley Bank, implying that since the collapse of the back last Friday, they’d be in need of the cash!

(Next time I travel by plane, I’m going to make sure I sit next to Steve Kirsch! Now where’s my muzzle?)
