7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Russia said that, but then also why would Elon turn off Starlink during crucial military operations in 2023? Shits and giggles?
The OG article I linked also says that Russia and China are in contact with each other. May Musk, Elon's mother, lives in Shanghai and travels to Beijing frequently. She has pictures on Chinese social media having dinner with both Chinese and Russian diplomats. Is that also just coincidence?
Look at the story you are writing for yourself .
Even if it’s all true, you’ve now reached the point where you've rejected the idea Trump is controlled by the American men who fund him, fund the GOP and control all the machinery necessary to get him elected as President of the USA - all of which has documentary evidence on the public record - and instead you prefer the idea that Trump is controlled by Russia because Elon Musk’s mother has dinner with dignitaries in Beijing.
One of those stories requires a lot more imagination than the other. That’s all I’m saying .
Ok, ignoring everything else, answer my one question:
Why would Elon turn off the Starlink satellites right before an important Ukrainian operation?
Edit: oh nvm, 8 day old account that is going around "giving the benefit of doubt" to any Elon/Trump + Russia related story. I'll see myself out 🙄
Still no answer for the Starlink.
