@RicochetRowdy I am thinking it may be time to remove Elon. I will never approve a merger. Elon would loot shareholders wealth to spend on his Mars. Fantasy.
Reading the new Ashlee Vance book on space. When design new starling and solar array, why not add cameras? With that many satellites and Tesla image processing, would this enable a step change on global surveillance? Besides the military there are myriad commercial use cases. Seems like another big business
@CernBasher@grant_melson Cern, that is the BEST answer wrt labeling, propaganda and simplistic thinking. I learned something new and we dive in the source you mentioned. Thanks!
Larry, such comments just reflect a deep ignorance of geopolitics. The wisest โexpertsโ readily cede that Iran has no viable navy or Air Force. They are not particularly relevant in this conflict. So your navy comment is moot. I urge you to listen to Glenn Diesen and his guests. It seems you have a visceral hatred for Iran. But stating ignorance is beneath you.
@thejefflutz Who would hire this supply chain clown when he thinks shipping across the pacific has no effect on price or cost? Then Elons whole vertical integration/same continent approach was pointless ? Send the poor man a man of the oceans
@thejefflutz@nytimes So you advocate weaponing the entire international financial system and international waters. This is why empire reach a terminal state. Very myopic and parochial
@LimitingThe So let me get your analogy, you are comparing how one deals with a girlfriend to how 2 super powers deal the infinite calculus of geopolitics. Yikes.
@thejefflutz@MarkHalperin End all US sanctions, open SWIFT payments, stop having us navy attack ships in international waters, stop the 2 genocides, close some if our 800 military bases, lower our $1T military budget, stop CIA regime changes like 1953.
Just a thought
1. Why focus on whose Iranโs negotiators are, rather ours! 2. No military - that is not a serious assertion based on our weapons used, assets in place, dollars spent
3. Not a superpower but they are becoming the power in the Middle East and controlling oil + natural wealth
4. This is all about the oil and resources not nuclear weapons (if you donโt recognize that then you arenโt seeing the chessboard)
