    The way you put it is at the very least a rationale. Obviously it can be debated one way or the other, but it makes more sense than him being overtly pro-Russia. I don’t think he’s so dumb as to make it obvious.

      Yeah don’t trust headlines. They create the best possible headline to make as many people as interested as possible… forget about the truth or nuance. During this same period, remember that the US didn’t want to give fighter jets or tanks to Ukraine out of fear of escalation. Musk was essentially following official US military policy.

          I agree. No one man should have all that power.

          But we’re not really talking about “what ifs” or “ideal worlds”

          This is the world we have and this is what happened.

              again… i agree but this is the world we live and we are discussing reality not what ifs. i also think people shouldn’t go hungry but here we are with hundreds of millions living in malnutrition

              all i’m trying to do is give context so people can actually try and understand what is happening instead of having the wool pulled over their eyes by some other group of rich men

                  i doubt anybody knows what really happened besides musk, the US government, and some important people who work with the starlink system. so no, I don’t know with any certainty what really happened.

                  but i can be reasonably sure that the headline used in this title is sensationalist and misleading
