It is an amusement park ride, though. No one's doing research in 11 minutes in orbit (I don't think it even counts as space)


Bezos is trying to make space tourism a thing, so it's very much akin to an amusement park ride.

Yet nobody said a thing over the past 10+ years when dozens of billionaire men have done the EXACT SAME THING. It's because it's women you've heard of. Such BS. Such misogyny and such hypocrites.


Men didn’t televise getting glammed up and singing.

People are free to spend their money however they want.

If we start policing how people spend their money, you're subject to it as well. That beach vacation? That money could instead go to a scientist or artist who can study or paint the beach and share it with everyone.



I don’t mean to be a jerk but it seems that you don’t recognize that this happens in regular life too. I would never waste my money and spend as much on a car as my neighbor did, for example. Why did they take *that* vacation- what a waste of money. And so on.

But does your neighbor do a media run promoting his car purchase lol?


And if he did, it would be all the more reason for me to criticize him!

I find this attitude extremely misogynistic.

There are a million things men spend money on that we can point at and say "for what? Those resources can go to something else".

Overall we're fine if men choose to spend their money on season tickets, ATVs, video games, or any other number of wasteful hobbies. But women are expected to put their money towards helping others? Doesn't make sense to me.


The participants made it a flight about women. I’m not familiar with situations where men spending this money make it about men. In fact, if they did, I’m pretty sure I’d see the backlash.

Honestly if it was a group of all female scientists, I’d applaud it. But I don’t worship at the cult of celebrity, so this was a self indulgent waste.

Do right in space that you didn't in earth. Don't trash it and pollute it like our home planet.

Lauren seems so desperate for attention. I don’t get it. Why can’t she just quietly eff her troll in peace without all the stunts?

The whole thing was so tone deaf and cringe. This woman just seems evil to me.
