Elon Musk turning off Starlink to prevent an attack by Ukrainians defending themselves from Russian state aggression is as clear and devastating an indictment of the ancap dream of a stateless but fully-privatized world as I could have ever imagined.

@HeavenlyPossumThe reaction of US politicians show clearly, that US/NATO is on war with Russia. The Ukraine is already done. This is another Vietnam thing.@StillIRise1963

A Ukrainian attack on Russian forces in Crimea might have disrupted Russia’s ability to murder Ukrainian children with cruise missiles but thank goodness Elon Musk was able to use his galaxy brain and extensive insight into war and Russian decisionmaking to save everyone except those Ukrainian children who are now actually dead.

@StillIRise1963 @wauz Thanks for what I’m sure is a super well-informed take about geopolitics.

@wauz @HeavenlyPossum @StillIRise1963 Good for your point of view that Bavaria just completed its secession from Germany and is no longer part of NATO.

@wauz @HeavenlyPossum @StillIRise1963 I agree. And it's Elmo's decision if he wants to barge into Cold War II. He messed up when he took sides offering free Starlink to Ukraine in the first place.

@ahltorpIf we could get rid of NATO, I'd support secession from FRG.Actually, I really want to get back to several German states. The political system got very dysfunctional. We need starting over democracy.@HeavenlyPossum @StillIRise1963

@masha @wauz @StillIRise1963 He’s not providing Starlink for free; he is a parasite on US military spending in this and many other cases.

@HeavenlyPossum @wauz @StillIRise1963 Nothing's free, but he offered it to Ukraine at no cost in the beginning of the war.

@mashaFor what purpose? It's quite a difference if it was given for civil or military use. But after all, this is not my point. I just don't want this war to escalate. I want them to negotiate right now.Whatever I like politicians and oligarchs or not, I just don't want a nuclear device dropped neither my front- or backyard.And, yes, I was one of those, that told US Army to fuck off forty years ago. I didn't change my mind.My military pledge commits me to defend right and freedom of the German people bravely, and that's it. Nothing else.@HeavenlyPossum @StillIRise1963

@wauz @HeavenlyPossum @StillIRise1963 negotiating peace is the right way to go. These are the consequences of Nato's warmongering. And Elmo's just trying to pass as a philanthropist. He's only helping himself.

@HeavenlyPossum @wauz @StillIRise1963 NATO’s expansion fueled this war. But you knew that already.

@masha @StillIRise1963 @wauz Poor Putin, NATO did him a fright when it expanded onto his border in Estonia so he had to invade Ukraine and make Finland join NATO.

@HeavenlyPossum @wauz @StillIRise1963 the bare minimum should be to keep the annexed territories and no NATO for Ukraine.

@masha @wauz @StillIRise1963 So the concessions you imagine that Putin will make to secure the negotiations you demand will be “achieving all his military goals and forcibly transferring unwilling people to his sovereign control in the manner of 19th century population trades by competing monarchs”?

@HeavenlyPossum @wauz @StillIRise1963 unwilling? Putin negotiates from a strong position. Ukraine will have to concede to obtain peace.

@masha @StillIRise1963 @wauz You said that there need to be negotiations, but you imagine that the need falls squarely on the population victimized by imperialist aggression? I guess I didn’t realize that you meant *NATO* must negotiate and Putin should get everything he wants. That’s very generous of you, to trade away human beings!You believe that an imperialist state should be able to use nuclear blackmail to annex territory and subject unwilling people to its fascist rule?

@mashaThe Ukraine doesn't exist any more. It's just like a hollow tree, that is filled with concrete and carries some lonely branches and leaves.The very moment, replenishment stop, it will brake down.@HeavenlyPossum@kolektiva.social @StillIRise1963
