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
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.
That would require holding a billionaire accountable in some way though?
I’m just some dumbfuck but,…money?
Pretty much - Muskrat most likely privately funds (read: bribes) enough government officials to either stand by and do nothing or actively interfere.
This advisor should also consider the lack of response from the US itself as part of the problem - Muskrat is helping out an enemy, but uhhh… what the fuck did the government do to curb that shit from happening in the first place?
Why with all those billions are we relying on a private company for military communications? I’m not excusing Musk AT ALL, but communications are insanely important in a conflict. Why are these governments spending all of this money and not just doing it themselves? If the military ordered supplies from Walmart and Walmart didn’t deliver them, wouldn’t we be asking the government instead “why the hell did you do that?”
We have entered the out loud part of billionaire gangsters literally taking over the world or trying. Elon dreams of an authoritarian world where he can house his workers a la Foxconn. Honestly someone is going to star popping these malignant ghouls soon and Elon is a prime candidate. One special ops team and a MANDAP and no more X.
We now live in an overt oligarchy heading toward fascism. Although it’s always been an oligarchy behind the scenes IMO, you are right, they are now saying the quiet part out loud. They are also taking actions that were once done behind closed doors right out into the open.
David Frum: “If conservatives become convinced that they can not win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject democracy.”
We are watching that happen. An oligarchy run by a fascist would be just fine with conservatives as they’re showing us every single day.
Frank Wilhoit: “Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition… There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”
Laws clearly do not bind Trump, Thomas, Roberts, Alito or Musk and they’re done pretending that they do. They don’t even bother playing lip service to the idea that we have a government of laws, not of men.
I once had a Mexican friend tell me “I weep for my country” when talking about Mexican crime. Watching the Republican’s accelerating mockery of our laws, institutions and government I’m sorry to say that as an American I weep for mine.
Nationalize his assets and deport him to South Africa
South Africa is where his families money is from and he can still have power there.
Guantanamo Bay is where he belongs
Send him to that big garbage island in the Pacific.
The UK?
When was UK in Pacific?
Ukraine special ops downs Elmos jet…
Arrest Musk, drop him off baked on the front lines. Rinse and repeat with other billionaires.
Why are we getting him high first?
So the Ukrainians don’t have to lead him as far.
