Russia and Ukraine flashpoint

Exposing how dangerous it is to have fickle, misinformed oligarchs with leverage over US national security. SpaceX & Starlink are marvelous, but if Musk's delusional "anti-war" agenda leads him to interfere with their services to Russia's advantage, it's a huge risk. https://t.co/JxLj8HcaRI

The provocation fallacy has been refuted many times, recently by Prigozhin's mutiny. Putin backs down when confronted with force & strikes when he feels safe. Ukraine has hit occupied Crimea & Russian sites repeatedly. Escalation risks rise when Putin is winning, not losing.

Musk is basically a Russian oligarch at this stage, should be sanctioned as such, using Twitter to help Russia, using SpaceX to help Russia.
