Yes, but...
So the most basic way orbits work, the faster you go, the higher your orbit. Any collision has to conserve momentum, so any collision will be a net deceleration.
There WILL be things that get ejected at higher velocity, but most would cause the orbit to decay instead.
Also, while there are thousands of satellites up there, they really aren't very close to one another.
You'd need to put a LOT of really small pieces of debris, like a shuttle exploding, to cause them to spread over LEO to a point where the random collisions really out things under threat.
It happens when your whole schtick is talking incessantly to a stream, especially if you are discussing politics off the dome. Its not like the majority of the dumb takes are in anything like a Speech or actual political messaging. I'm definitely guilty of this.not all of my ideas are good ideas, why would I hold an internet talking head to a higher standard?
Send em. If this behavior doesnt radicalize them, then hope for the future is lost. Just make sure your kid identifies with those being kidnapped and not the jackbooted thugs doing the kidnappings.
