Why are you decided on making things binary? Either you're anti-musk or musk worshipper, or either musk is full on helping Ukraine or full on helping Russia. Things can, and often are far more nuanced. Like for instance, one can easily say that the Soviet Union was crucial in the war against Germany in WW2, while also being brutal genociding maniacs that committed human rights atrocities everywhere they went.
> I don't understand how people can exist in such a clear dissonance state (Elon provides Starklink to Ukraine as a means to help Russsia, and does not offer it to Russia), and not step back and think.
What musk did with Starlink regarding the Ukrainian planned attack was direct and active sabotage of an operation, and impeded the Ukrainian war effort. Other things he has done previously, like allowing Starlink access in Ukraine, has helped the war effort. Is that hard to comprehend? Does it have to be one or the other?
The fact that he has done some good deeds, for whatever reason, doesn't change the fact that he has done far more bad deeds. His sabotage of public transit initiatives with actively harmful efforts such as the loop and hyperloop has a direct impact. His constant lies and embellishments of technological advancements is also harmful to his customers. His sharing and endorsing fascist and Russian propaganda is also harmful to the Ukrainian war effot.
