Why tf did you post that article if not to refute the assertion that he denied service? It doesn’t matter what the title of the article you posted is if it’s a total non-sequitur.

The vast majority of people are under the impression that Elon disabled Starlink there and when someone makes a comment like the one I replied to this is what they’re thinking about. The article I linked is there to educate these people.

It’s a bit of a non-sequitur though, the context was denying service to an ally not cutting off existing service to Crimea. It’s like if someone asked “Have you ever shaken a baby” and you respond “I have never kicked this baby!”. Sure, it’s good that you haven’t kicked a baby, but that’s just not the question.

Why the fuck are you carrying water for a racist sociopath?

If you’re gonna hate someone, hate them for what they actually did, not for what their detractors want you to think they did.
Modern news media is fucking awash with cleverly worded half truths that are repeated so often, by so many who don’t take a moment for critical thought, that they become almost a rallying cry. It’s Hunter’s Laptop all over again, but aimed at the left.
