Did they ask Musk to do it?
Who do you think suggested the idea to them? $10 says Elon directed Russia straight to a backdoor. He’s been itching to see Ukraine fail this whole time, I wouldn’t put it past him to directly interfere in such a way.
How exactly has he demonstrated his urge to see Ukraine fail?
EDIT: Still waiting for examples of this
He has refused to allow Ukrainian troops to use Starlink within Russian occupied regions to avoid “conflict escalation”.
It would be illegal to enable it within Russian/occupied territory because of US sanctions.
He also doesn’t let Ukraine use starlink in Russian-occupied regions of Ukraine, according to a quick google search.
It’s prohibited by U.S. sanctions to Russia.
Russia doesn’t own the land they put troops on? What are you talking about.
So if a single Russian soldier enters the US, all of America must stop everything because of sanctions against Russsia?
Why? Can starlink not track which ones they give to Ukraine and not let any others work in the area? Or would that require competence that Leon Skum and company doesn’t have?
You’re asking the wrong person. I don’t work for U.S. goverment - I don’t know why the sanctions are what they are.
IDK, maybe that whole thing where he likes to selectively turn off Starlink, or maybe that time he literally went to visit Putin and then spouted some Russian Blood and soil?
Starlink wasn’t enabled in Crimea in the first place because of U.S. sanctions. The author lied about this and has admitted doing so.
that is the worst excuse I have ever heard
Your claim about him “selectively turning off Starlink” is false. You’re spreading misinformation.
I think they can ask muskrat directly, he would do it
It’s interesting the lengths Russia will go through to win this without becoming a half-decent country.
But it is half-decent, look at their metro & compare it to America’s
That is Moscow and Saint-Petersburg.
Show me the Metro of Sotschi… or any other second class Russian city.
Russia has literally only 2 Cities partially on western standard. I think most dictatorships manage this, even North Korea.
It’s everywhere in Russia, the point is Russia is half-decent not like what the American kool-aid would have you believe, that is all there is to it No politics here, case closed
The grass is always greener on the other side
Fucking Mussolini was said to have made the trains run on time again.
Even if that were true, that doesn’t make him half decent.
Who said I was simping for Putin
Well, what about if we compare ‘factories not on fire’ or ‘citizens lost on the battlefield in the last year (month)’ or even ‘incidents of explosive drone attacks’?
Are they still half decent?
Actually yeah they are half-decent, not even kidding
Why do you simp?
I don’t, why do YOU simp ?
No u

I mean that’s more because America’s metro fucking sucks. My country has better and I’m literally from a third world country.
by chicago you mean new york and chicago and such. America does quite well. russia has 7 metro systems while the us has 16.
& all 16 look like toilets & those metro systems are dysfunctional considering how car-dependent US is
how are they dysfunctional? Chicagos system works quite well and dc’s one was somewhat decent. Having some fancy chandeliers does not make a metro system good.

yeah but I think its good to challenge this shit. It likes to ride off the us transit bad thing. Which is true but then wants to combine it with, pretty russia train stations, when their infrastructure, including transit, is worse than ours. Which is saying a lot. Given china/india is doing a lot with their infrastructure, russia may find itself the backwater between two modern areas.
