Actor Kevin Sorbo, whom you may know as Captain Dylan Hunt from the space opera Andromeda, caused quite a scene on Twitter following a scene at a Starbucks in Southern California.
As California has reinstated indoor mask mandates to curb the spread of the ever-growing delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, Sorbo decided to grandstand about his refusal to don one when an employee asked him to put on a mask.
It went as well as you'd expect.
i\u2019m not proud of this but i just made a scene in public for the first time in my life. I walked into Starbucks and they asked me to put a mask on. I yelled this is BS. I turned around and walked out. I know what you\u2019re thinking\u2026 My first mistake was walking into a Starbucks!— Kevin Sorbo (@Kevin Sorbo) 1626810221
Translation: I screamed at some low-wage workers today because right wing media highjacked my brain with unfounded rage. I used to be on a tv show! Really!!!— \u0932\u092e\u094d\u091c\u0941\u0919\u0947 TJ Lee Williams. (@\u0932\u092e\u094d\u091c\u0941\u0919\u0947 TJ Lee Williams.) 1626813497

Well- other people have the right to not catch Covid from you. Stay out of responsable businesses that care about the health and well being of their customers and employees. Good for Starbucks— Liz McCalley Birmingham (@Liz McCalley Birmingham) 1626813539

Sorbo has an extremely inflammatory Twitter account, often posting racist rhetoric and pro-Trump propaganda, alongside anti-science conspiracy theories.
While this is not a surprising development from him, Twitter found it all the more repulsive.

\u201c\u2026not proud\u2026\u201d yet inexplicably tweeting about it is a weird flex but ok, whoever you are.https://twitter.com/ksorbs/status/1417570931770335241\u00a0\u2026— Robin Tressler White (@Robin Tressler White) 1626921489
So you went into a Starbucks and acted like an entitled jackass because they wanted to protect themselves and others?

I am sure the baristas were relieved to not have to serve that insufferable windbag.https://twitter.com/ksorbs/status/1417570931770335241\u00a0\u2026— Erica/TC Underground (@Erica/TC Underground) 1626918866
Sorbo is also a proponent of the conspiracy theory that the January 6th attack on the United States Capitol was perpetrated by "antifa" rather than supporters of former President Donald Trump.
First time you\u2019ve made a scene in your life? I\u2019m glad you also acknowledge that your acting is trash.https://twitter.com/ksorbs/status/1417570931770335241\u00a0\u2026— Natalie (@Natalie) 1626915419
Oh, Karen Sorbo\u2026 bless your heart.\n#DopesWillWhinehttps://twitter.com/ksorbs/status/1417570931770335241\u00a0\u2026— Bruce Rheins (@Bruce Rheins) 1626911001
Wow his stupidity is reaching new levels. Why would anyone tweet something like this?https://twitter.com/ksorbs/status/1417570931770335241\u00a0\u2026— Laurel J. (@Laurel J.) 1626909607
A couple baristas did something no one else has done in years:\n\nSaw Kevin Sorbo act.https://twitter.com/ksorbs/status/1417570931770335241\u00a0\u2026— The Hoarse Whisperer (@The Hoarse Whisperer) 1626918202
Sorbo's Twitter continues to fill up with inflammatory Tweets and doesn't show any signs of stopping.
Hopefully future Starbucks employees will be spared his childish antics.
