Narrative:

Passenger in X6; mr. A; did not want to comply with mask policy and refused to stop his conversation on his phone when we [were] getting ready for pushback. He got very loud and ornery with me. I went to inform the captain about the situation and the passenger's behavior and the captain turned me and said 'what do you want me to do about it.' I was shocked at his response. I figured he was not going to give any support to the situation so I just turned and walked out of the flight deck. Another crew member told me that mr. A gave him attitude also. At this point I felt that the captain was not going to give us any support to the situation so I briefed the rest of the flight attendants to not address mr. A. About wearing his mask so that we would not have a bad situation happen inflight. I put the face mask policy on mr. A's console and left the situation alone after that. Mr. A. Did not wear his mask at all during the flight.
