On October 14, 2026, SpaceX imposed an unannounced speed limit on military-grade Starshield terminals used by Ukrainian forces, automatically cutting internet connectivity for terminals moving faster than 100 mph (160 km/h) and disrupting several high-speed military drone operations.
SpaceX employees seduced by Mars missions are now supporting authoritarianism, speech suppression, electoral rigging, violent invasions, and petrocracy.
Funnily enough, some years back a recruiter came knocking for me to interview for SpaceX. I was not especially interested (not due to any particular insight to the true Musk or anything, just didn’t feel like it), and the recruitor seemed sincerely baffled why I didn’t immediately fall to the floor in awe at the possibility.
Space X has been in a list of top ten companies most engineering graduates wanted to work for. For the recruiter, you were a statistical deviation.
All this to be Elon’s serfs and concubines. What losers.
