Guess that's what now passes for "in-flight entertainment" on the cheap-jack flights.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

And during all of this, where was the crew? Might the captain have said, with what might have sounded like total seriousness, "If all of you don't return to your seats and turn off the boom box that triggered this distubance, I will radio ahead. When we land, all of you will be arrested for airborne rioting, a Federal crime punishable by life in prison."
And if that didn't work he might have improved with something like this: "Folks, as long as you keep behaving like that, I am not going to land this plane. We will stay in the air for the next three weeks, if need be, until you settle down

Damn auto-correct! I meant to write that the pilot might have improvised, not that he might have approved.

I'm surprised the TSA let anything with "boom" in its name onto the flight.

Crank-- Good idea, preceded by a zero-G pushover to get their attention.
Those damned boob boxes used to be the scourge of public transportation; operators didn't give a rat's ass about everyone else in the first place so polite requests an irritated demands were met with the same entitled hostility.
The arrival of iPods and iPhones (not the old Walkman, curiously) abated the problem for years. The loud speaker commercial with the older diving board man made me worry that this would again be the norm; I did not expect it to appear on airlines first.
