Passenger shaming on FB - is it me or is this weird ?

So here's an article about how FBers like to shame people who take their shoes off when they fly. I thought this was appropriate behaviour on long distance flights since your feet swell up ,and on some airlines they even provide socks.

As soon as passengers board aircrafts and soar thousands of feet into the air they lose the ability to judge basic social etiquette – or at least that's what the eye-opening Passenger Shaming Facebook page seems to suggest.

The mind-boggling horrors showcased on the page, which has over 300,000 likes both on Facebook and Instagram, include dirty nappies and dirty bandages stuffed into seat pockets, faeces on the bathroom floor and people clipping their nails.
Sure it depends, but when you are flying 10+ hours in economy class, it sucks, and everyone (or most people) do[es] their best to just get through it as best they can.

I think these FB people are the ones who have issues, but maybe I have no manners ?
Anyway, no way i would fly long-distance with my shoes on. :facepalm:

No probel with taking your shoes off, I think they are more on about taking your shoes off AND putting them on the head rest in front of you......

I haven't flown economy in about 10 years now... it's photos like those which remind me why not.

I don't have any big issue with people taking their shoes off, it's not like as if we don't do it every time we enter a house in SE-Asia. Putting them up on the head-rest of the seat in front is not so good, but I've never seen anyone do it.

What the hell is this thing?
