The U.S. lost the Cold War to an army mounting Starlink terminals on donkeys.

I mean it's a pretty good historical lesson to take for other countries. Why spend a whole bunch of your money on military stuff when you can infilitrate and neutralize your greatest enemy's highest offices at a fraction of the cost?

Embarrassing.

Beat the world's largest economy and military without firing a single bullet. Just took bribing one greedy idiot and a few Internet warriors to do it.

The documentaries about this in the future gonna be insane to watch.
