Все про Україну Everything about Ukraine
The man is an enemy of the west and should be treated as such
Billionaire dipshit doesn't understand why he can't order everyone to do what he wants. People die.
This "I just wanted peace (for Putin)" shit is another item too far. Way too far.
Wow directly intervening in a foreign war. He's insane.
"Narcissistic personality disorder"
Elon Musk secretly ordered SpaceX engineers to switch off the Starlink satellite communications network near the coast of occupied Crimea in order to thwart a Ukrainian surprise attack on Russia’s naval fleet, according to a report. The incident last year is reported in Walter Isaacson’s upcoming biography of the billionaire titled Elon Musk. With the comms down, the Ukrainian submarine drones packed with explosives “lost connectivity and washed ashore harmlessly,” Isaacson writes, according to CNN. Musk was reportedly motivated to foil the attack out of concern that a strike on Crimea would constitute a “mini-Pearl Harbor” and lead to Russia retaliating with nuclear weapons. The SpaceX boss apparently began to question his decision to support Starlink being used for Kyiv’s military communications when Ukraine started to use the tech in offensive operations against Russia. “How am I in this war?” Musk asked Isaacson. “Starlink was not meant to be involved in wars. It was so people can watch Netflix and chill and get online for school and do good peaceful things, not drone strikes.”
What a turd
Am I understanding this correctly?
Both of those things sound very made up to me. The first sounds fabricated as a Macguffin to lead into #2. That's where where all the self-aggrandizing and emotional shit happens.
But if anyone thinks the first thing is plausible, I'd be interested in hearing more opinions.
I honestly don't care about the second item, but if the military is relaying plans to this known fuckwit, they probably got what they had coming.
Yeah, the idea that Musk had such in depth knowledge of the attack sounds like horseshit to me.
I also somewhat respect the idea of him not being happy his system is being used to directly control a weapon.
Would starlink exist without defense contracts?
