Their opinion seemed to be a combination of hatred for capitalism and Elon Musk, and they came off to me as being grasping at straws to justify that opinion.

The point is that even though someone does something fun money, that does not mean what they do is not harmful.

Who said it wasn't? You're arguing against a point nobody made.

Starlink sats are only visible to the naked eye when they've just launched, once in orbit they're only a problem for ground based optical astronomy, and even then it doesn't seem to be as much of a problem as everyone makes out.

I get that you probably hate Musk, but a lot of the points you're making are just nonsense.

How do you know that? You're launching an entire rocket to kill one satellite, that can't be cheap.
