    The article doesn’t debunk anything. All it really says is it can’t definitively say either way. You just choose to focus on the PR response because it supports what you want.

      No it doesn’t. It clearly says there that the original claim made in the book, which is the same claim you’re making here, is false yet you keep spreading it.

      Your claim: he shut down Starlink to stop a Ukrainian assault

      Truth: the Ukrainians THOUGHT coverage was enabled all the way to Crimea, but it was not

      Elon didn’t disable anything. It was never enabled in the first place. Your claim is simply just false.

        I understand that people don’t like Musk, I can’t stand him myself, but there are enough bad things that he really did, to not have to stick to false narratives.

        The downvoting of the objectively proven truth here is like reading something on Twitter, but in the opposite direction. It’s incredible to me that someone invoked Snopes and spouted the opposite of the findings of that Snopes article, and is being upvoted for it.
