You’re smart enough not to swallow media & other propaganda bs.

Starlink is the communication backbone of Ukraine, especially at the front lines, where almost all other Internet connectivity has been destroyed.
But we will not enable escalation of conflict that may lead to WW3.
Politico: Elon Musk says SpaceX restricted internet in Ukraine to prevent escalation ‘that may lead to WW3’
‘We’re trying hard to do the right thing,’ says billionaire. SpaceX's recent restriction on the Ukrainian military's use of its satellite internet service for drone control was to prevent the conflict from escalating into a world war, according to Elon Musk.
Answering a request from a former NASA astronaut to restore full access to the internet for Ukrainian forces, SpaceX CEO Musk tweeted late Sunday: "Starlink is the communication backbone of Ukraine, especially at the front lines, where almost all other internet connectivity has been destroyed.
But we will not enable escalation of conflict that may lead to WW3."

WNU Editor: There have been videos posted on social media by Ukrainian soldiers boasting how they have converted drones to carry chemical weapons .... Without giving evidence, Russia says it probes Ukraine use of chemical weapons (Reuters). There was a Starlink dish clearly visible in one of them, and I am sure this must have caught Musk's attention.
There have also been numerous reports from Ukrainian officials that they are dependent on receiving data from Western intelligence and military agencies for targeting their artillery. The only internet network that is in operation in some of these battlefields is Starlink.

I’ve e seen the video of the canisters in the freezers, if not chemicals than what? Are the dropping margaritas on the Russians? Not to mention the video of the Russian convulsing in a ditch obviously suffering from chem warfare. NATO is a dirty dog and deserves what coming for it
How much do Russian trolls get paid?
Ah yes... Because Russia HAS NEVER used Chemical nerve agents, ever, especially on foreign soil! Never ever!
It seems to me the Ukranians were dong better when they were light and nimble. Note the toll on Russia's more costly and less than professional performance in the early days of this war. From what I read back then there were a few American trainers influencing the tactics of Ukraine's under-equipped military. Hit and run.
Now they are going head to head. Russia has more of everything needed. How unprofessional the Ukes have become to think they can lick the bear on it's terms.
^ yep they're doing Frazier rather than Ali
Gotta agree with Musk on this. If Starlink even begins to make a noticable difference, this conflict will spread to space. Definitely not good
Two wrongs do not make a right. Are you saying it is ok to use chem weapons by the ukies?
Yes, there is at least one Russian troll assigned to any WNU which has a comment thread swing any sign of life.
Better for a russian to troll than to serve in a trench.
You ukies rah rahs are an arrogant lot. But so are most progressive antfa types
Lol says the fascist Antifa Troll.
The way the lefties have treated Elon is disgusting, I wish he pulled all his tech from the democrats projects
