How are we fucking up our ability to go to space with these LEO satellites? That's quite comical coming from someone calling other people's statements a "smooth-brained take."

It absolutely is NIMBY when you sit here on the internet arguing that rural folks should have their internet access revoked because it's "spoiling your view." What difference would it make to any of your listed points if it were an international endeavor rather than a private one?
