    The one good thing Musk did since he left South Africa, frankly. Broken clocks and all that.

    I’m honestly a bit surprised that his CIA handlers let him, but he is also a bit unhinged.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if the CIA were in favour of what he did. They want a long, protracted bloodbath, not a short nuclear armageddon.

      If they’d forced him to use Starlink for Ukraine and they still lost, however, the illusion of “we could have won if…” is broken. This way, depending on the public, they have a sage peacekeeper who avoided nuclear war, or a selfish traitor they can use as a scapegoat. Gotta keep the libs and fascists dreaming.

    At this point, I’m completely convinced that he did it not because he cares about human life, but simply for all the attention he would get for stopping a nuclear conflict. Joke seems to be on him though, the western public is so bloodthirsty at this point that they love the idea of this war going nuclear.

    I don’t support Musk at all, but the idea that he might’ve been the difference between life and death for potentionally millions of people is insane. It’s very simple to pick a side.

    No wonder people call him “Iron Man”. He is as narcissistic as Tony Stark.

      At least Tony Stark in the comics saved the world numerous times and he invented most of his own shit, rather the Elongated Muskrat taking credit for shit he had no part in.
