Nobody can dictate what an astronaut is and isn't. The FAA and NASA specifically wanted it to be this way so culture wars and shit posts like this wouldn't happen. ๐ฎโ๐จ Idk why people forget that.

Yes, going to space for even one minute makes you an astronaut. Maybe not a very good astronaut, but one nevertheless.

Poor Katy. The roasting is endless even though it's the piece of shit Bezos who actually deserves it.
She never called herself an astronaut. Fuck the rich and all but people here are just using this to excuse their misogyny.

did she call herself an astronaut or something?
edit: apparently not, people don't like Katy Perry/women and are making things up to get angry about.

To be fair, she never claimed to be an astronaut.
Also, the Jeff-Dildo isn't capable of reaching the karman line, so she wasn't in space either.
What makes you say that?
I'm in no way here to defend blue orgin, but the capsule does apogee "just above 100km". It's pretty clear getting above the karman line was their main goal.
If we're gonna throw shade we gotta be accurate. Lets make fun of them for being suborbital and for making the most phallic launch vehicle ever.
In that case they seem to have actually upped their game because for a pretty long time they weren't able to.
But yes, I'm all in favor of throwing shade, so we can if course make fun of the phallic shape. And in my book, astronauts have been in orbit.

She acted how a crash test dummy would if there were no crash.
Edit "like" to "how".
wow, the rare double-cringe!
it wasn't bad enough that she went to "space" - we also get to see edgy tate memes, too!
viva 2025!
Isn't that rather self deprecating humor than misogynistic? The joke is essentially "if going to space for three minutes makes you an astronaut then getting it on with a woman for a solid three minutes makes me an expert on their anatomy".
