I hope every user cancels their contracts. If the free world wants to survive we need to fight against the fascism rising in the world supported by the oligarchs. We can control every penny we spend and we can ask out countries to do the same. We should not support people with no ethics or morals.
Hate to be "that guy," but where are the sources/receipts for this? South America is a continent and, as far as I know, each South American country would sign their own contracts. Misinformation does not help if we are really going to kick Musk where it hurts.
Yet here in the United States T-Mobile has now signed on to Starlink. So the deal that the government had with Verizon is now canceled because Elon has stolen that too.
I give this post a giant "stinker", since there was no corroborating links to back up this claim. Joe G, don't be like this. It stinks of stirring the pot with a melting spoon.
Love this! More countries please - cancel StarLink! Tariff Tesla! Refuse to support the U.S. like Norway just did! Western countries should ostracize the U.S., like Trump just did to Ukraine!
This can't be factual. Unless Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Guyana, Venezuela, Cayenne and French Guiana have come to some Union, I don't see how this is possible. These countries have many disagreements with each other. Long lasting ones in fact.
Whic country in South America? or all of South America? South America has 12 sovereign countries:
Argentina
Bolivia
Brazil
Chile
Colombia
Ecuador
Guyana
Paraguay
Peru
Suriname
Uruguay
Venezuela
Tbh, if Carlos Slim is cartel connected it would be much more helpful if he cut Elon's tie rather than cut ties with Elon. If you know what I mean. 🤷♂️
Every country in the world needs to ban X and get rid of Starlink. The people will take care of Tesla. And US taxpayers need to stop giving money to this regime. No more feeding the monsters.
You know ...if the value of Tesla stock keeps plummeting ....if X continues to lose value , and if more and more nations etc ...are opting out of StarLink contracts ......Musk might have to apply for one of those now open government jobs ....or become one of those gov " parasites " , himself .!!
I wonder...
How much would it cost to get a million marble-sized metal shots launched to low-earth orbit? Just open the hatch and let them fly?
Could we GoFundMe it?
Asking for an arch-villain.
For those asking sources I found this. Nothing else. Apparently musk implied the guy was a gangster and he responded in minutes by canceling contracts.
Nice if it happened, but you know South America is 12 countries with different languages, governments and mandates right? We would have heard about this.
It’s like when you ask an American to name a country and they say “Africa”.
At time of this comment, I can find nothing to confirm this.
So today's lesson in critical thinking is this:
"South America" is not a single country. If the countries that make up the CONTINENT of South America were holding meetings to band together over anything, we'd know about it, wouldn't we?
As somebody who reviews history, it tends to repeat itself. With “Leon“ supporting Germany’s far Alt right, slump dismantling of our democracy.
Republican leaders should look back at the Nuremberg trials, complicity isn’t the answer.
Surely there’s a few Republicans that cannot stomach this
Only X, Threads, BlueSky report on this. Are you egging us on?
Would be strange that all South American countries are in concert on this. Some of their 'leaders' like Trump.
Yes! South Americans for democracy have courage! The Muskrat take down is on. Boycott X for 90 days, You can live without X but are you ready to look me in the eye and say you will use a platform owned by the guy enslaving you?
No, it is just one telecommunications company, Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim's Movil America which operates in many Central American and South American countries. Cost to Musk's Starlink is 7 billion.
Tmobile has a beta starlink phone service they are trying to get users to sign up for.
I see it as a Musk spy trap.
Not trusting anything tied to, link to, related to, affiliated to Musk or any GQP administration.

There are risks to any country dependent on it.
happy to oblige😁👍
This is what I found
I’m muting/blocking accounts spreading crap like this.
GRACIAS MUCHO gracias

Better context next time.

I really hope this is true.
Fuck Musk
Fuck Trump
And let's hope the one rapist will take advantage of the other one..

I will see you when you post now 🥰
And Europe's already building their own.

Don't think this is going to pass a fact check.
Continents don't have contracts.
