Danny and Derek get the reaction of Forever Wars’ Spencer Ackerman to news that Elon Musk shut down Starlink satellites in order to thwart a Ukrainian drone attack on Russian forces in Crimea.
“The cucking will continue until morale improves”... kinda sums it up... never in history have we seen a state building venture rely on privatized mercenaries for the carrying out of its cynical ventures that have an ideological value at home obscuring the real material value in the grand scheme... ah shit... that’s the story of humanity going back to the 30 years war and earlier? Well tragedy and farce it is then...
Was Starlink even accessible over that region, or was it already disabled in compliance with US sanctions? “The sanctions include Crimea, and we are not allowed to turn on the connection to a sanctioned country without explicit government approval.” https://news.yahoo.com/musk-says-didnt-turn-starlink-154613530.html
I could be wrong but wouldn’t the fact that the us has not recognized crimea as part of Russia throw a wrench in the gears of the sanctioned territory argument?
Hahahaha "Cucking"
