That would all be good if the UN could be trusted

LOL. In the words of Stalin: “How many divisions does the Pope of Rome have?”

Same with UN. It's completely paralized by the veto system.

False analogy.

Elon is asking for a re-vote by the people in the contested territories, not just surrendering them.

Peace is not profitable, and certainly not the ideal result to the primary stakeholders involved in the Russia-Ukraine war, but it is for sure the preferable outcome for the rest of humanity. It’s time to seriously consider the Musk Peace Plan as a roadmap for stability in a region that desperately needs to turn down the temperature.

How cute. "Re-vote" after an ethnic purge is surrender to whoever holds the territory at the moment.

cisTits says

Before you get all holier than thou, the allies did similar shit after WW2 and w/o even giving the effected minorities a vote on the matter

Nobody getting "holier", just pointing to the obvious fact: after you grab and clense the territory of "undesirables" you can safely hold any kind of "vote" and get the langrab legalized.

Glad we agree on how this works.

This is Elon's biggest failure.

He should openly admit he was wrong and that the vaxx is DANGEROUS and INEFFECTIVE and should be banned immediately.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -China’s ambassador to the United States thanked Elon Musk for proposing a special administration zone for Taiwan

LOL

How's that hyperloop doing?

He's making natural gas and coal fired cars, and it's only because of ignorance and fraud people think this is a good thing.

I'm not impressed with him. He makes pretend solutions, not real ones.

Medicine is obviously not Elon's forte. But then, it isn't most people's forte, either. Still at the level of mystery and superstition.

I say that promoting the vaxx is Elon's biggest failure because the vaxx is killing a lot of people. Lack of hyperloop isn't killing anyone.

Well, with regard to the vaxx, define "success"?

It's pretty obvious to me at this point, people in certain positions are only allowed those positions, if they promote certain points of view and if they don't, they're removed.

I don't know if you have ever heard of Lyndon LaRouche, for example, and I was taught he was a criminal and a nutcase. He wasn't. Ron Paul got the same treatment, except not a criminal, but a racist. Even if you have power, and go against an establishment, everything is brought down on you to destroy you, up and including murder. How's John McAfee doing?

"All the world is a stage" it's said by Shakespeare, maybe he was entirely correct.

🇺🇦🇺🇲 Elon Musk was placed on the Ukrainian government’s kill list for about 10-15 minutes before being removed. Apparently someone guessed that Starlink could be turned off permanently.

Yes, it is actually a kill list. When the people on this list are murdered, like journalists Andrea Rocchelli & Darya Dugina were, the word ЛИКВИДИРОВАН, “LIQUIDATED,” written in Ukrainian, is stamped across their picture in big red letters.

It will be fun when all of the Ukrainian blackmail against US politicians finally comes to light. Auntie Lindsey might like it in prison servicing all the Nazi Bubbas.

Of course, offering Starlink to Ukraine could just have been a way of testing its spying ability on their comms. Russians could use Starlink, too, one would presume.

My car has Starlink. Maybe some day it will be sucked into space, targeted with DEW, or run off the road by the CIA.

Now I read that he's just demanding that they pay for the service after they told him to fuck off.

Elon Musk Tells Ukraine to Pay for Starlink after Ukrainian Official Told Him to ‘F*ck Off’

SpaceX is not asking to recoup past expenses, but also cannot fund the existing system indefinitely and send several thousand more terminals that have data usage up to 100X greater than typical households. This is unreasonable.

"Forgive us, Elon. It was the ten lines of cocaine talking."

Weak.

Elon must have gotten some Russian subsidies for back doors.

Or maybe he was threatened.

If I had to guess, Musk’s plebeian sense of humor is probably a big part of why the establishment can’t stand him. They don’t mind someone who challenges them through the proper channels and in a respectful manner—that’s actually playing into their hand, because it concedes they are deserving of respect in the first place. What they can’t stand is being taken lightly, being teased and ridiculed and ultimately ignored.

Why can’t they stand that? Because our reverence for the elites is actually the source of their power. They win as long as we take them seriously. They lose the moment we don’t.

I agree.

Memes are a lovely way to mock them. Funny, quick to the point, and that point pops their bubble.

Elon's four point peace plan sounds good to me.

Biden administration officials are discussing whether the US should subject some of Elon Musk’s ventures to national security reviews, including the deal for Twitter Inc. and SpaceX’s Starlink satellite network, according to people familiar with the matter.

Ah, it turns out that even billionaires don't actually have any rights in the US if they oppose the Deep State agenda.

national security reviews, including the deal for Twitter Inc. and SpaceX’s Starlink satellite network

I watched a train of those Starlink satellites ride across the sky like a necklace of Skynet, awe inspiring and scary, like a form of doom. Musk is NASA. This is not exclusively a private enterprise, it is a strategic move to create huge redundancy so that everything can't be shot down or EMF pulsed out of function all at once.

I remember when they claimed 40 Starlink satellites were destroyed on launch through some error. My first thought was that those must have been the hyper militarized, 'secret' or hper-weaponized satellites, and they are probably up there quite healthy.

Countries are now shooting down each other's satellites all the time, that's why there is junk streaking from the sky all the time and so many places showing space plumes where stuff is being launched. It's a jungle up there.

All I know is that my spidey tingles when I saw that string of satellites traveling along the sky in a straight line was that whatever publicity was given to them, it wouldn't be the truth, and whatever the truth, it wouldn't be good.

One element of the $44 billion Twitter deal that could trigger a CFIUS review is the presence of foreign investors in Musk’s consortium. The group includes Prince Alwaleed bin Talal of Saudi Arabia, Binance Holdings Ltd. -- a digital-asset exchange founded and run by a Chinese native -- and Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund.

Why the fuck the richest guy in the world needs SA and Chyna to buy Twitter? And what kind of free speech platform can we expect from such a lovely bunch of investors?
