SpaceX is done for as far as I am concerned!

That's it for me! I'm boycotting them permanently. No trips on their rockets for this 78 year old. No Space Station, no moon, and no Mars trips.

I encourage DU members to also boycott them. That will destroy the MuskNazi permanently.

1. How about Elon Musk's Starlink? Few realize that T-mobile is now integrated with Starlink...

Just sayin... I realize rural people have few options and that T-Mobile Starlink connection may be their only choice.

13. I am rural in a county of 10,000 people and live in the Ouachita National Forest.

I have choices of 2gb fiber from 2 providers,
several 5G providers at 200+mb
a DSL provider at 50mb

I personally use the 500mb fiber from the power coop at $69.95 a month. They offer a 1GB for $99 but I just don not need that speed

We also have ViaSat satellite. There really isn't any need for the Starlink service where I live in rural Arkanstan

7. No, Boeing. Then I'm sure I'll never be deported to Venus. On the other hand, that might not be so bad.

11. Not any more. Not after Alice finally ended it with a frying pan to the mouth. Even back then in the '50s

Could one of the muskrat’s parents have been sci-fi fans? Or was there a deeper interest via Operation Paperclip?

I know, I know…but if I tallied-up all the times CT turned out being true…

When PAPERCLIP enabled NAZI scientists escape Justice after the war, the Wehrmacht’s spy apparatus was allowed to ride the rat lines and escape. Unfortunately, the German spies had been infiltrated by Stalin’s agents. So, as Reinhard Gehlen fed lies to Allen Dulles and Co., the Soviets knew CIA’s every move.

Know your BFEE: Reinhard Gehlen
