The progressive card game company is paying new voters who come up with plans and disparage Donald Trump online.

The company behind the game Cards Against Humanity is aiming to one-up Elon Musk with its plan to pay blue-leaning swing-state residents who make voting plans and agree to publicly condemn Donald Trump.

The company announced an initiative Tuesday to encourage people who didn’t vote in 2020 to go to the polls this year by handing out up to $100.

On a website created by the game company, eligible voters are asked to provide their personal information, which is then checked against voter data that the company said it bought from a data broker. “You wouldn’t believe how easy it was for us to get this stuff,” the website said.

If eligible voters didn’t vote in 2020, Cards Against Humanity offers them a payout, provided they write apologies for not having voted four years ago, create voting plans and publicly post “Donald Trump is a human toilet.” If the voters lean blue and live in swing states, they can earn more money.

According to the website, over 1,700 eligible voters have already participated.

    Are you saying I have no right to criticize as I see fit?

      I think you’ve got a right to criticize but your criticism isn’t, itself, beyond criticism. We’re on a pretty permissive forum where a lot of speech is allowed - I’d be deeply disappointed if a mod banned you for thinking this is a terrible idea (since your statement isn’t hateful or delivered in a hateful manner), but you certainly might get pushback.

        True. Too bad you decided to insult me by insinuating I would be a person who would work against civil rights activism rather than criticize what I said. And because you did that, I’m not particularly interested in any criticism you might have. Ignoring you is also a right, which is what I will proceed to do. Toodles.
