Musk authorized Starlink to be used for civilian purposes. Ukraine/Zelenskyy broke that agreement and used it for military purposes.
Musk is not aiding Russia, he is enforcing the conditions he made in advance with Ukraine, when giving them his technology. Musk does not want to be part of the war, only to help the civilian people stuck in it.
I think Putin is an evil guy, who has caused mass destruction and civilian slaughter. And also caused the pointless death and maiming of hundreds of thousands of his own soldiers and civilians, in a pointless war. As I've said before, even if Putin were able (in the period he had the advantage) to conquer Ukraine, he would face years or decades of resistance at enormous cost, until eventually forced to give it up and withdraw.
And I don't think Ukraine should be forced to give up one acre of territory in negotiation with Russia. Ukraine now has the advantage, and is for the first time exacting a huge toll on the Russian military, and on the Russian economy. Possibly causing the collapse of Russia, or a least of the Putin regime.
I'd like to see a post-Putin regime that allies with Europe and the U.S., and Russia would benefit greatly from that economically. And Russia could pivot to an alliance with the West against China. This war is just an awful drain of lives and resources, that will inevitably be abandoned by Russia.
