I don't like Musk, but he's done more for Ukraine than you can dream of. But he also sent a few stupid tweets that he took back, so that's a good enough excuse for virtue signalers to feel superior.

- Aunche 4y agoAccording to Musk, Starlink has spent $80-120 million to subsidize Ukraine. He could be making this up, but this is supported by a letter SpaceX sent to the Pentagon even before Musk's infamous Ukraine tweets. https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/13/politics/elon-musk-spacex-starlink-ukraine https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/13/politics/elon-musk-spacex-sta...
