> When I speak to people, they say, "Do we need to see something really bad happen?" I'm like, worse than Russia blowing up its satellite in this orbit, which clearly has an impact on the United States through Starlink? When you talk to SpaceX, it's very clear that the destruction of this Russian satellite likely had the intent of harmfully interfering with the Starlink satellites. They've already had to maneuver several thousand times out of the way of the debris. It's an impact to their operations. That was not random. That was not haphazard.
Logical and expected outcome of SpaceX choosing to become a military asset in an active military conflict involving a country that has the power to interfere with their operations and possibly destroy their birds if desired.
