Elon Musk ‘Secretly’ Used Starlink To Foil A Ukrainian Attack On Russian Naval Fleet Over Fear Of Nuclear War: Report

Is this not treason? Like legitimately, technically.

It's cute how if Ukraine fights back that risks nuclear war, but when Russia invades a sovereign country it doesn't

Hang on... That's sabotage. Straight up. That's a criminal offence no?

Elon is not the president, a leader, the military, nor a government. This parasite should be in a prison or a brig at the very least. This is fucking treason.

If he loves Russia so much, we should deport him there, and nationalize all his assets since SpaceX is a critical security apparatus and he's clearly the foreign agent of a hostile power.

Fucking charge him with something. This is insane... If it's not treason, it sure as hell is undermining the billions of dollars in aid were sending Ukraine. We've sent 76 billion dollars so far.

I know it's an anathema to most in the US but the government needs to step up and take Starlink and Space X off Musk for a fair price. He's way too unstable to be trusted with tech that important.

I mean if a person does anything directly affecting a war (for any side) I'd say that person is a wartime volunteer.

Wartime volunteers that have taken up arms are a absolutely viable target for military strikes.

Just saying 🤷‍♂️

Any system capable of manipulating the outcomes of international conflict needs to become property of the government via eminent domain...especially if that system is used...especially if used by an entrepreneur operating without oversight.

Musk is a war criminal. This is a crime against humanity.

Elon is a Russian bitch just like the rest of the billionaires.

It seems like privatization is working out great for us 👍

If true, my respect for Musk just dropped a .... well, none at all. It would be totally in character.

Make sure to save this for the next time that shitbird or one of his moron suckups tries to say he helped Ukraine. Fucker oughtta be treated the same as any Russian collaborator.

But the truly galaxy brain move is in this article:

After CNN’s reporting, Musk reversed course, tweeting “the hell with it … we’ll just keep funding Ukraine govt for free.”

Gwynne Shotwell, Musk’s president at SpaceX, was livid at Musk’s reversal, according to Isaacson.

“The Pentagon had a $145 million check ready to hand to me, literally,” Isaacson quotes Shotwell as saying. “Then Elon succumbed to the bullshit on Twitter and to the haters at the Pentagon who leaked the story.”

Muskovite belongs in prison with the other russian war criminals.

Yeah we keep finding out more and more ways this mofo sucks. Somebody needs to strap him to the front of his stupid rocket and launch him into orbit.

From the moment he gutted 80% of twitter staff very soon after a secret meeting with Putin, its all been pretty obvious Musk is a Russian asset. Twitter helped rally international support for Ukraine and he hasnt been subtle in sabotaging it

Throw that fuck in prison and nationalize all his shit.

“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.”

Yes my satellite that is actively being used in a war should be designed only for Netflix and chill.

Fuck you, Elon - you festering vomit of a man.

That's insane

So there is an Elon piss-tape kompromat?

If he's not careful the US will simply nationalize SpaceX. It's not going to happen in the next couple of years, but this kind of shit will cause it to happen eventually.

*Out of loyalty to Putin

Throw him in jail. That's it, an individual has disengaged from America elected leadership to act as an independent agent. Also known as: a spy.

Like is this even a debate? Any citizen that did this would be in a CIA black site hoping they got to see their family again.

No crazy person should be allowed to have this much power. Starlink should be nationalized, and instead of a payout Elon can go to jail for all that market manipulation he's constantly getting away with.

This makes Musk a foreign agent by definition, unwitting, semi-witting or otherwise this is textbook foreign agent behavior.

Smells like a war crime to me

Time to nationalize Starlink

This is a great article on the subject posted recently:

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/08/28/elon-musks-shadow-rule

Secretly posted on Twitter that he did this because who is going to hold him accountable?

Wow, this thread. All he did was switching off his satellite network though, not somehow sabotaged the operation.

JFC - this guy.

SpaceX / Starlink does work for the USA Pentagon. he isn't against war.

“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 fucking douche. As usual.

Elon Musk should be 'secretly' stuffed into a tiny cell on a black site and have his wealth redistributed. All secretly and in the name of helping the world, of course.

Can't wait to see how many times the ElmoBois will use Worthington's Law to "defend" the Space Karen.

The totality of evidence for this is "a drone stopped working for a bit". It's just baseless waffle.

I’ll need more info on this. However, if true, it wouldn’t surprise me.

"Papa puta is happy with muskreek. Papa puta promised not to press death button, muskreek is hero! Why people angry with muskreek papa puta?" - The best model science can build of musk's current thought process

I think I have a new winner for guy who could have been cool but ended up being his own worse enemy.

Thank goodness for our titans of industry. Musk saves the planet yet again by averting nuclear war! What will he accomplish next?

Well, the USA and EU also attach conditions on delivered weapons - not to be used against targets in Russia. Also, maybe he is afraid of Russians shooting down his satellites, as they threatened to do.
