There are countless examples of Musk selectively banning people on Twitter based on political belief, such as this one [1]. And of course, he banned the @elonjet account, even after specifically saying he would not [2]. More specifically to StarLink, he banned Ukrainian forces from using them around Crimea [3].

		He agrees with you. Believe it or not. You're also arguing SpaceX should have waited for a Pentagon contract to deliver to Ukraine

Not true and still off today.

I've not seen anyone claim they used to be able to use equipment in Crimea at some point in the past and now it doesn't work.

I believe by the time Starlink arrived in Ukraine Crimea was already occupied and post "referendum" and providing service there would be like providing service to Russia, no?

		No, because the "referendum" was meaningless and had no effect on the peninsula's sovereignty. Which since 1991 has been and remains Ukrainian.
