Ingrate: Is Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky getting too big for his britches?
American Thinker ^ | October 4, 2022 | Monica Showalter

For Elon Musk, no good deed goes unpunished.

Get a load of the ingratitude from leaders of the nation he helped with his Starlink internet connection back when they badly needed that help:

Fu** off is my very diplomatic reply to you @elonmusk

Eeew. What kind of a reply is that?

All the Ukrainian diplomat had to do was say 'bad idea' or 'won't work,' or 'too late for that now,' or he didn't like it. He didn't have to go all foul-mouthed and ad hominem, using toilet-mouthed language, especially against someone who materially came to his nation's aid at a critical time.

But he did.

Let's go Brandon will continue to send US taxpayer dollars to Ukraine. Horrid, in light of the suffering in Florida.

Perhaps we can understand, that with Ukraine under attack for 10 months now, incredible death and destruction, that if it were our country we’d cheer a balls to the walls attitude.

I know it’s terrible. People’s $3million dollar houses, 3 feet above sea level in a hurricane prone area were destroyed, a long with their $250k boat and their Tesla, too.

How about “none of the above?”

That is what you get from a criminal enterprise who make money off letting their own people die in a proxy war.

Okay, sure - they guy didn't have to resort to profanity. But they're in the middle of a war of survival in which aot of their people have died, so may that guy's patience isn't at an idea place.

Also, it wasn't even Zelenskyy who said that, so....

Elon Musk is on the autistic spectrum. I very much doubt he is clutching even one pearl over this.

In all probability he expected the Ukrainian response to be less than receptive. The point of the suggestion may have been nothing more than to see if there’s any appetite for negotiation.

And once Elon actually understands the legal history of why Ukraine’s borders are what they are currently, he should understand precisely why they’d turn the offer down (and are completely justified in doing so).

As I’ve said in other threads - and Zelenskyy has made this point himself - the security guarantees that Ukraine is sticking to aren’t just guarantees Russia gave to Ukraine in the 90s; they are guarantees given to over 12 now-independent nation states. If one state decides to rip the rules up to appease Putin, then no other former Soviet state is safe from Russian aggression.

That “fuck off” was sent by someone else - a former diplomat. Zelinsky made a poll asking -

Who do you like more:

Elon Musk who is helping Ukraine

Elon Musk who is helping Russia

To me Musk comes off as an arrogant tech-bro who knows nothing else about war other than what he learned from some computer games, knows nothing else about the situation other than what he learned in 15 minutes browsing wikipedia and declares that this is enough and he is the genius who knows the solution ... and then offers up something foolish and naive.

Biden is just latest in a long line of Democrats to get the US into a destructive war. As Bob Dole famously pointed out, Nearly every US war has been a Democrat War, stretching all the way back to 1847.

It’s true that in recent years the GOP has had its share of warmongers - think John McCain who wanted the US to fight Russia over Ukraine as far back as 2014. But Democrat Wars have been the rule not the exception. Right now, Biden the Democrat is trying to make McCains dream come true

You are so right. Ukraine has been fighting for its existence.

“Ukraine has been fighting for its existence.”

Not really. They’re fighting to keep control of a sliver of land in the East that is majority Russian speaking. The Russians haven’t attacked anywhere near Kiev, which is why our politicians can fly in and out of there so easily

Elon will just shrug it off LOL. He’s taken worse from his Twitter takeover bid. Musk helped them re-establish their internet connection, got a thank you from Ukraine and this is their response months later?

No wonder they’re gonna fall soon..

It’s a common sense solution and every one knows it.
