I don't understand the support for this. How is it that someone who's bought what was - for years! - the best EV available, is getting in the crossfire of musk hate?
Well it's one thing if you bought it a decade ago, before we all realized how much of an ass he is. It's quite another if you bought it after the reality came out.
I say this as someone that owns Starlink equipment, though the service is currently paused, with no plans to unpause it (since we can no longer work remotely, Elon). Unfortunately, Starlink is essentially the only option for remote internet service, but there are a lot of different vehicle options.
So you bought your starlink in 2015 after which you reckon we should have known Musk was acting like a Nazi?
10 years.
He was maybe an arsehole 5 years ago. He wasn't clearly Nazi until the lead up to the recent election
5 years ago, the regular, non-terminally online citizen probably thought of him as the internet genius he and the media portrayed him to be.
