Well I never.....

Reminder: Elon Musk intentionally shut down Starlink operations near Crimea last year to undermine Ukrainian naval drones

His decision came from calls with Putin

Why are my tax dollars making this man a billionaire?

Why is he allowed to openly collude with war criminals without the gov’t nationalizing starlink / SpaceX?

Why is he still receiving DoD contracts?

And why are wine mommies with 🇺🇦 🏳️‍⚧️ #Resist in their bio on Twitter?

PSA for #Peertube instance owners:

Block/ignore the peertube.se instance immediately. This is run by and used by Nordfront, the media division of the Nordiska Motståndsrörelsen organization for spreading Nazi propaganda.

Of course, this being the #Fediverse, make sure to block it on all platforms, such as #Mastodon.

It's the first match on Google if you're located in Sweden, which is problematic.

Please boost for exposure.

If piracy is such a big deal to media corporations, if piracy is responsible for billions in “lost earnings”, why do they never report this as a final loss on their financial statements? Corporations would miss no opportunity to cook the books.

It’s because there is no such actual loss due to piracy. If it was real, every media corporation would gleefully report themselves as being millions, if not billions, in the red due to “piracy”.

Finance and economics are full of polite fictions, but it turns out that you can’t claim tax offset against something that isn’t real.
