I don’t trust Elon at all. He’s compromised himself with Putin.

Musk is still a Nazi no matter how he tries to repackage himself.

Ew.

USAID was investigating its relationship with Starlink just months before tech billionaire Elon Musk attempted to shut the agency down, according to reports. www.newsweek.com/usaid-elon-m...

Elon is still part of the problem, giving loads of money to far right wing groups in Europe to cause chaos.

Dude. Blink if you're in trouble.

Where is Congress? Where are the international institutions? We've now been reduced to total reliance on one individual occasionally doing the right thing. The last tweet he saw could determine the fate of nations. This is insanity.

Why was Elon providing starlink to the Russians in the first place??

I for one time and one time only do also thank musk. First thing he's done that doesn't jibe with trump's attraction to Putin or trump's agenda of power

Elmo is just a fave to a brand. I am sure the decisions were made by people on the board who arent ketamine fueled junkie pedos.

Was this before or after Ukraine sold Russia a fake StarLink so Ukraine could spy on Russian military? Seems like Russia wouldn’t trust StarLink after that anyway. #MuskSux

Another case of fixing a problem they started. 😑

What if... hear me out... he hadn't been providing Starlink to the Russian military for the last couple years (either directly or inadvertently)? Or what if he didn't turn it off on Ukrainian counter-offensives while they were being attacked every single day?

Fuck Elon. Get him out of government contracts.

Stench(musk) shut down satellite communications to Ukraine.

Fuck Musk. He is a murderer that shut down USAID and he doesn't care about your thank you's.

It’s more important to notice their bad actions first, that way you aren’t openly praising a POS fascist later for fixing a problem he caused.

Thanks, Adam. Perhaps could you report on motivation and background. Agree that it is good...

weaponizing space technology is a bad idea. spy satellites are one thing, and they're accepted at this point. but this is an incredibly risky move, should russia decide to take action against starlink satellites. you people have no clue how tenuous the security of this infrastructure really is.

Why was Starlink ever enabled for russia in the first place?

Sounds like a positive Elon decision to help Ukraine.

Good call, but I'm afraid Musk is playing god here. Next week, he might decide to do the exact opposite, just to see what happens... The ideal would be for Starlink to be in safer hands or to have an alternative to Starlink.

It's also important to recognize that Elon musk is in the files many times. His photos are in there. I agree it's good for Ukraine but Elon musk is a horrible fucking person for the world order.

why was the service available in the first place

Weird, as he supplied it to them in the first place.

He never should have given it to Russia in the first place. Have we forgotten when he disabled Starlink for Ukraine’s counteroffensiv in 2022? Elon Musk is one of the worst villains in modern history. Fuck that guy. www.reuters.com/world/usaid-...

Kinda shows that no government should use starlink

Ugh. That was the most resentful "like" I have ever hit. 😠

What took them so long?

He's still interfering in European politics... he's a loose cannon.

why were they able to use it in the first place tho?

Maybe Elon only recently realized Putin isn't an old-school Nazi. After all, Putin clashes with Israel and had Nazis like the co-founder of Wagner working for him. Killing Nazis doesn't rule out being one, even Hitler did it. It's a good time for all.

Everyone who supports Trump and his goons are going to either be in prison or pariahs of society. Not very bright! 😂

There is nothing good about Musk. I do not trust him.

During a drone raid on Russian assets.

Not a Musk fan so thank you for educating me about this. Any idea what prompted this?

One good thing, one time doesn’t erase what an epic shitstain of a person he is.

Looks like the ketamine finally wore off. Good job for the guy that gave a nazi salute to the nazi sry I meant MAGA cult... damn auto correct.

Worth pointing out that earlier in the war they shut it down for the UKRAINIANS at one point. (Don’t know if it was ever reinstated.) Elon just makes whatever decision he thinks is expedient for himself at a given moment.

ELON MUSK IS GOOD FOR NO ONE BUT ELON MUSK! DONT GIVE HIM AN INCH! HE’S A LYING CHEATING RAT!🐀

There is more joy in heaven…

He is still a Nazi

He's just trying to maximize his profits from the SpaceX IPO.

One good call amongst many, many bad ones..

Except as someone pointed out after I reposted this, Musk did the same thing to Ukraine last summer. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be an option to delete a repost or I would.

Not forgetting he did the same thing to Ukraine last summer.

Not for noble reasons, but we'll take it anyway.

5 years late.

Thanks for reminding us you are really on the other side.

Oh and Epstein gave to charity.

Why? Every evil person does things that are good. I don't think acknowledgment should be given until the moral deficit is paid off.

Adam, don’t you remember he did that to Ukraine early in the invasion? Left them in the dark, so to say. Musk gets no praise from me.

He's in trouble in Europe and needs to look like less of a monster.

You talking about Epstein island nazi elon musk? The best thing he can do is die.

Elmo is not smart enough to be a Bond villain. An Austin Powers villain, sure. But not Bond.

What? He supplied it to them to begin with… he cutoff ukraines access to it several times over money disputes… he’s a transphobic nazi bigot and the fact his company finally did the right thing shouldn’t be praised it should be investigated on why it took this long to accomplish.

Doesn't russia have other secure communication modes?

Private companies shouldn't have this kind of power but glad they finally did the right thing

It took way too long, though. The Russians also banned Telegram, so their backup is gone. If they keep up this stupidity, they may lose.

Did Elon finally realize that Ukraine has white people too?

Adam, No more both-siding things, please. Sure, it was a "good-call"... ...no reason to give props either. Musk fucks kids. His companies are parasitic just like he is, along with the rest of the Epstein Class. No offense, but you and the Regonites and Neolibs ushered the doom into the U.S.

Do you realize he's only done that because spacex in going public, right?

About time

Might also give kudos to Europe for offering supplemental services via Eutelstat which they plan to build upon.

The problem there is that Russia's been using Starlink since the summer, and all this did was prove that Elon has been able to do it for half a year but didn't. I really think this is a tantrum because Russia didn't protect him from the Epstein Files.

But like it's also important to remeber that the cuts to US Aid will result in the deaths of millions.

I mean, it's only been how many years now?

True. He may have been in breach of contract if he hadn’t, though. Russian use of pirated Starlink terminals has been on the rise for at least two years. He did nothing about it until the defense minister in Ukraine contacted him about it.

He and his pals are still out to destroy democracy for all time, so there’s that. But yes. He did a good thing this one time.

1 good decision as opposed to the gazillion bad ones. I am sure it wasn’t for altruistic reasons but he thinks he can profit from it somehow.

Yes, Musk did a good job with that decision.

You expressed my thoughts about it exactly. There's also the bad publicity when his businesses are about to go public.

Ok but we have one rich unstable guy who has the power to control the outcome of a war which is a dangerous situation.

Is it a “good call” from the perspective of an IPO, or from the perspective of doing what’s right? Russia should never had access to Starlink to begin with. Don’t pretend that a technology company didn’t know where its users were located.

Praising Musk? Disgusting!

Actually... Yeah, fair point. You do not have to. :P Though... MAYBE it will encourage him to be less of a shitbag. Sometimes. But yeah, no person has an obligation to give the Apartheid Emerald Heir a milligram of due, consideration, or even moldy cheese.

Took him 4 years!

Musk was pressured to do this. Has absolutely nothing to do with him doing the right thing. Musk is Putin’s other little bitch. Remember when musk took starlink offline for Ukraine a couple years ago when they were about to use it for a coordinated attack on Russia? You should!

It’s the least he can do seeing how Much he takes from the American taxpayer.

Everyone waiting for the other shoe to drop tho

Why am I drawn to former Republicans? I have been an unwavering Democrat all my life. Republicans are selfish. Democrats want to help civilization.

To paraphrase the legendary Wint(dril): "Under no circumstances do you have to 'hand it' to Elon Musk".

Let’s hope it is permanent! 🤞🏼

A Good call????? Musk is suddenly very publicly angry at Russia—for the first time ever—just as we find out that the Epstein honeypot operation that almost ensnared him (and that he has, in any case, had his reputation further destroyed by) was a Kremlin production? Yeah, he's a real hero.

He’s still a sh** Stain

He turned Ukrainian Starlink off when they were attacking the Russians once before too. Now he's trying to make friends with Zelensky because he sees the writing on the wall for Putin. Scumbag will just wait til it's convenient to betray us too.

The real question is why was it available to them until now if Musk always had the option to shut down the service selectively only for Russians? There have been sanctions for years. Why was Starlink allowed to bypass sanctions?

here's to wishing it was important to remove these types of decisions from corporations in the first place. (downs vodka, stares despair in the eye. does not blink)

But he doesn’t do anything unless there’s something in it for him. He’s consumed by greed.

Some think Americans are gullible, others think them naive.

Musk is scum, but I agree that was a good thing

Nationalise Space X after you jail Musk

See the UKR secret service were selling Russians fake Starlink licenses, and using their contact deets, to bomb them🤣🤣🤣

Musk is only doing it because he wants to take SpaceX public and the potential investment pool against Russia is larger than the investment pool for Russia

He doesn’t often do the right thing but this sure is one to give him an “atta boy”!

It’s the least they could do

I guess he can make good decision when he wants to.

And good leadership like you Adam. Keep it coming

100%

Why did he clear them using it to begin with?

Sometimes people do the right thing for the wrong reasons. I’m sure making more money is ultimately behind this turnabout. Not morality. So trust but verify. After he makes his money play, anything can happen.

Even a broken clock, and by clock I mean pedophile, is right twice a day.

Was Trump on board with that?

Sorry Adam, but I doubt it was an altruistic move.

Its a shame USAID was shuttered due to their investigation into Musk and Starlink on Russian drones....

I want to know what changed.

Maybe. I lost trust in him, so we don’t really know what he is doing behind the scenes. It could be he is giving covertly locations of Ukrainian dishes to russians.

...yet, he has threatened to shut down Ukraines access as well. So there's that..

And why did it take four years to make the right call?

We take what we can get.

So Elon's a good guy now? 😆 I think not. The question is, who paid him and how much?

Elon KNEW Russia was using his technology and profited from the murder of Ukrainians for years.

If Musk is doing the right thing, it's either an accident, part of a cover-up, or it's part of a bigger plot to do something horrible.

And countless lives. I can’t think too hard about what he did to USAID because it is so depressing and we are so helpless to do anything. I just can’t bear the pain.
