Passengers*, I think. I’m pretty sure passenger vehicles are subject to higher quality standards than vehicles meant only for cargo (ISS supplies, for example).
(I could be wrong. I’m an internet comment, not a rocket surgeon 🤷🏻♂️)
I mean, it kinda is to me, the base meme image isn’t of them being in space or doing any of the “tourism” parts, but of them being “so grateful to be on the ground” because they couldn’t “handle it”
This is attention whore activity. There were people stuck on the ISS for what like nine months, did they kiss the earth when they returned? These people willingly go to barely the edge of the atmosphere for like two minutes and this is their response when they returned?
OTOH Windows does suck. Though again I’m guessing no one is switch back for ten minutes by choice.
Can we avoid using the space tourists for memes?
Unless we’re ridiculing them, obvs.
They were not space tourists.
They were cargo. Marketing material for Jeff’s rocket-powered overcompensation that just happened to need oxygen to stay fresh.

I’m pretty sure this is making fun of those twats
It is so fun to trash them.
Uh, isn’t that what this is?

Looks to me like the reader (the Linux user) is identifying with the subject of the image, which would appear to put them in a sympathetic light.
