Elon Musk says the Request to Turn on Starlink in Crimea Came from the Ukrainian Government in the Middle of the Night "We figured out that this was kind of like a Pearl Harbor like attack...So they really asked us to proactively take part in a major act of war"

America's defense contractor StarShield took the positive step to deactivate starlink over Sevastopol. Elon decided that the black sea fleet should have his protection when they fire missiles at grain ports and civilians. Elon perpetuated the war by taking the positive step to implement a geofence over Sevastopol.

The war could have been over, or been in a totally different state by now, if America"s defense contractor StarShield did not take the proactive (and escalatory) step to whitelist the black sea missile launchers

No, they needed him to act not just carry on as normal.

Otherwise they wouldn't have contacted him.

Right, they needed him to reverse the step he had previously taken to enact a geofence over Sevastopol.

Elon had already decided that the missile launchers of the black sea were under his, and therefore US defense contractor StarShield's protection. That's a warmongery and escalatory step, especially as those boats kill civilians, destroy the grain ports which feed the third world and ESPECIALLY because they tried to start another war with Liberia. Elon could have literally caused a new war against Liberia because he chose to protect terrorist assets of a terrorist regime. It's a super problematic decision by Elon
