If they have internet service to sign up for the promotion that is only available online, why do they need 30 days of free internet from Musk?

This comment sounds like AI drivel?

It’s scuzzy to say they’re doing something to help with an emergency and then not really offer much in the way of delivering. StarLink hardware is expensive and it will be next to impossible to deliver the hardware to the areas most impacted. Thanks for nothing.

This critique seems to be lacking in hypothesis and resolution. There are some elements that suggest that this is not in fact a critique but a bad faith argument in defense of Musk and his grift.

“I can’t fault a company for needing to charge for hardware”

The man is worth over $200 billion. He could give away dozens or hundreds activated units to every community impacted for shared use and it wouldn’t even make a dent on his pocket change.

If it’s Elon, it’s always a grift, all the moreso if he can grift desperate struggling people.

Muskrat doesn’t understand that you can’t just jump in a helicopter and fly it wherever you want all willy-nilly. This is doubly true in disaster zones where there’s a lot of emergency responders working in the airspace. Muskrat isn’t being denied anything or singled out, he’s just being told to follow the rules like…

We bought Musk’s truck to use to teach kids not to use drugs, the exact opposite of what Musk does!

No such picture exists.  He is an unhinged lunatic, so all pics of him make him look like an unhinged lunatic.

If they could have, I’d bet those cops would have jumped out of their car and immediately cuffed the lifeless bodies and started shouting at them to stop resisting.

This has been a lazy Trump campaign strategy for a while. The campaign just makes signs/shirts/swag that say “[insert group] for Trump” without any actual organic group organizing in support of him. They then hand these out at rallies and other events. That’s why you get white guys holding “Blacks for Trump” posters. R…

However, their presence was enough to lead Vance to call himself an “ally” of the auto industry while on stage, adding that, should Trump win in November, the administration will throw its support behind the American auto industry.

This wasn’t even a police chase, makes this even more senseless.

That’s Meatball Ron for you. Clueless, but his supporters are so dumb they think whatever gibberish that comes out of his mouth is brilliance. I love those occasions when the national spotlight catches him and shows for all what a doofus he is.

That’s mostly because a couple of generations ago, we downsized our rail infrastructure to a staggering degree rather than continuing to grow it alongside our population. Drive through middle America and every small town has an abandoned passenger railway station. Many mid-sized and larger cities have buried streetcar…

At some point, SURELY some people will start to realize that building and buying houses near the FL coast is a pretty bad idea. When I was a kid the only older houses I recall seeing near the beach were ones made out of concrete and cinder blocks. None of the newer McMansions they built ever since will stand a chance. 

I doubt many of them are smug. They have their own worries around getting a charge somewhere. A full charge in most EVs might get you to GA, assuming you don’t run the A/C. But the problem is the part of GA where you’re going to be stopping for a charge is also experiencing flooding.

Wow, he bragged about having enough gasoline to refill fewer than 10,000 cars and enough diesel to fill fewer than 2,500 semi trucks, in a state of 22 million people?
