He has also repeatedly suggested that Joe Biden’s administration discriminated against Starlink by denying it US government subsidies for rural broadband.
Fucking liars lying. Starlink wasn’t giving a speed defined as “broadband” when they applied:

Does it have better latency than Hughes? Sure. Was it providing adequate throughput at the time? No. And it’s pretty laughable that Starlink couldn’t even keep up with Hughes 'cause I’ve used that shit and it’s terrible for throughput at the node I tried.

Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr told the Financial Times that “allied western democracies” needed to “focus on the real long-term bogey: the rise of the Chinese Communist party.”
And who was it that shat on their allies, asked ChatGPT to come up with tariffs, then gave a giant middle finger to the entire world by defunding science, removing humanitarian aid, kidnapping and sending innocent civilians to a gulag without due process, and made literal Nazi salutes—all of which created a power vacuum that China was happy to fill? Oh yeah, it was you fascist dumbfucks.
You fucked around, and now it’s time for y’all to find out.

You known what Europe WAS doing prior to 2025? Buying Starlink, and buying Tesla.
What’s different now? Hmmm?

I can’t think of a better example of the need to “seize the means of production” than the starlink network.
Seriously, space is not within any country’s borders, how can one have private property up there?

Fascism is when government and corporate powers fully mix.
So literally yes. This is proto-facism, writ large.

Giving an ultimatum to choose between the US and China at a time when the dollar’s value is dropping and BRICS nations are pushing to unseat it as the world reserve currency. That seems like smart, long term thinking right there.
