| ▲ | scottyah 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | Lots of quotes from Ukrainians about what they are accusing SpaceX of, and even misleading titles "NO WARNING BEFORE STARLINK CUTS", but the actual meat of it is pretty hidden. Starlink never allowed use for offensive drone attacks, Starshield is what they were using, and it is a product fully controlled by the USG. | | |

These are links to forum posts linking to bluesky posts of "political commentators" that are factually incorrect. Starlink != Starshield. Musk does not own Starshield. SpaceX does not own it. It's like blaming a flight route cancellation on Boeing. | | |

| ▲ | scottyah an hour ago | parent [-] | | I appreciate the response, but quotes of people spreading known misinformation is not addressing the main concern. These are still just opinions. | | |
| ▲ | toomuchtodo an hour ago | parent [-] | | Goal posts moving at the speed of light. Axios and Bloomberg are only not legitimate when you’ve already made up your mind. As your comment said: > Can we narrow down asking for a link to be some sort of legitimate news? These are links to forum posts linking to bluesky posts of "political commentators" that are factually incorrect. Please prove this is “known misinformation” with citations. If you cannot, simply say you cannot. |

Condolences to those who haven't yet. When all you've got is time, to be a scholar is divine (imho) if you have the means. Good luck to those who continue to grind for frivolous causes. https://giphy.com/gifs/crazy-johnny-depp-jack-Efi4MpChuhHtm Edit: @jacquesm highest praise, many thanks. | | |

Reddit is full of these too. >because I've done well. Condolences to those who haven't yet. Good luck to those who continue to grind for frivolous causes. Wow, how modest and humble too. | | |
| ▲ | toomuchtodo 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | I should’ve been more specific with regards to my citation. You asked for evidence, I provided links as requested. Is it worth my time to? Sure, it takes but a moment. We discuss on a foundation of facts and evidence. Is my time spent doing other activities instead of discussing current events? It’s irrelevant, it’s how I choose to spend my time. I share, I learn, I know. I don’t have strong feelings on the topic, and how others think of me is not important to me (with regards to your comments about how I spend my time). Facts are facts. I hope this context answers your questions. |
