For the third time, you cannot separate the grifter from the grift. That’s not “Fuck Elon”, that’s “starlink is not, and never will be, what was promised”

Similarly, you can’t weigh an abstract possibility versus a real cost. You want the conversation to be some philosophical discourse about social vs societal value. But it’s not that, it’s a real situation right now.

And in this real life situation, we have to evaluate what starlink actually is - - a failed toy for wealthy early adopters - - and not what some abstract “could be”.

Especially when we know for a fact that any public promises of that potential are certainly intended to mislead and not inform.

It’s definitely not an honest conversation when you’ve deliberately and repeatedly chosen to misunderstand what’s being said.

It’s time to grow up and stop believing hucksters and grifters.
