Yeah like, I can understand a hesitation around being directly involved in a war effort, but mate once you’ve opened your system up to the military you’re kinda already there.

Yeah, but Putin said he'd give me like $10 or whatever in rubles if I did it. Then he called me a chicken... And I'm no chicken and I wanted the $10 so I could get this month's battle pass!

He literally was paid a shit-ton of money by the pentagon to provide service to the Ukranian military. He took the money. And then he's like, "how could I have known they'd use it in WAR?"

It's pretty obvious he got paid by the Russians to sabotage that operation. Which makes him an enemy agent against the US I guess since he sabotaged a military asset the US paid for.

Perhaps if we got rid of borders.

Edit: I guess people didn't see his username.

I will note, while I find my namesake’s story interesting, I do quibble on the benefits of bombardment by multiple-reentry thermonuclear warheads.

[-] AlexWIWA@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

It's definitely a controversial subject. But there may be some benefits to v2, like me not needing to wake up for work lol

Using something I’ve built to destroy warships before they can launch cruise missiles at an apartment block?

Now I am become death, saviour of civilian power grids.

Yeah, because only the Good Guy Military uses it and they would never do anything bad 🙄

That's an argument as old as time though

If only they hadn't invented kitchen knives there wouldn't be so many stabbings

When the military is using your ass as a front to install military hardware in space.

I'm guessing a conspiracy that Starlink is just a cover for the US military deploying oodles of satellites for great imperialism.

[-] toasteecup@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

there was a very recent post from elon musk saying he denied the ukraine use of star link for a military purpose. One of the top governmental figures of Ukraine tagged Elon in a post later on stating how many people died because of Elon being a literal cunt.

[-] baronvonj@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I thought that's what this post was about. Given the use of "your" in the meme text, I assumed it was Muskenheimer who was having the realization. So then the "oh no starlink bad" is maybe a diminutive response that is missing the point to people calling out Musk for being a cunt.

If they've picked Musk as their front, they're too incompetent to be worth worrying about.

The motherfucker used his unparalleled view of the battle lines in Ukraine to see that Ukraine (an ally) was launching an offensive against the Russian navy (an enemy), and shut down access, stopping the offensive. The Russian fleet went on to attack Ukrainian civilians, killing children. Musk has also been meeting with Putin. The only reason he's not being tried for treason is the lack of a formal declaration of war against Russia. Musk is incredibly erratic and easily influenced. The government has to deal with him on some matters, but if they're not doing whatever they can to eliminate their reliance on that traitorous moron, they're not going to be capable of getting that mystery hardware to space, let alone using it.

What do you mean "my internet"?

Internet was purposely developed for military goals.
