Ukraine special ops downs Elmos jet…
Elon Musk is afraid of Putin’s revenge. Crucial infrastructure like Starlink should be handled by the government, not a corp. Otherwise the corp will prioritize shareholders and profit rather than human’s life
I’m so tired of these literal cartoon villains having power I stg
The US has spent at least 80 Billion dollars arming and supporting Ukraine in it’s defense against Russian genocidal aggression and Western expansion that puts the entire NATO block in jepordy, why is Elon fucking Musk allowed to put his thumb on the scale in favor of the enemy? Why isn’t anyone in the Biden administration tearing him a new asshole form stem to stern, why isn’t anyone in the Biden administration publicly discussing nationalizing Starlink. We’re literally throwing money into conflict (for absolutely necessary, vital, and justified reason) that one man is deciding the outcomes of, and the United States government is just … what … ok with this?
One thing that seems to be the case with Biden’s administration - there’s a lot going on behinds the scenes that we’re not aware of.
You’re right, there should be some life changing repercussions for Musk. Hopefully we’ll find out those are in the works.
I’m just some dumbfuck but,…money?
It’s not so hard to understand why, have fun doing simple math…
Another “liberal” who hates democracy…
Why isn’t Biden just confiscating a private company??? Are you serious?
Billionaires are not democratic.
And what do you think calling for the state to take control of a business that disagrees with it’s policy goals is?
Nationalization? That’s not a new concept.
So you’d be okay with trump nationalizing a company because it disagrees with his foreign policy?
I wouldn’t be okay with trump in the first place, so I don’t see how that’s much of a gotcha.
Of course your don’t. You’re a partisan.
Exactly why taiwan is looking to build their own system. You can’t entrust anything to musk with his deep saudi-china links
Taiwan, meanwhile, is hesitant to use Starlink’s services for fear of Musk’s close ties with China. A dominant player in the global chips market, Taiwan feels exposed to the constant threat of Chinese invasion. Using Starlink might be one way to bolster its national and data security—especially when Taiwan suspects China of cutting its submarine internet cables. But for Taiwan to rely too heavily on Starlink might prove unwise, in the event that China pressures Musk to limit network access abruptly, as he has done in certain situations in Ukraine.

Nationalize his assets and deport him to South Africa
Musk is creeping into super-villan territory.
