Cards Against Humanity sued SpaceX yesterday, alleging that Elon Musk’s firm illegally took over a plot of land on the US/Mexico border that the party-game company bought in 2017 in an attempt to stymie then-President Trump’s attempt to build a wall.
“As part of CAH’s 2017 holiday campaign, while Donald Trump was President, CAH created a supporter-funded campaign to take a stand against the building of a Border Wall,” said the lawsuit filed in Cameron County District Court in Texas. Cards Against Humanity says it received $15 donations from 150,000 people and used part of that money to buy “a plot of vacant land in Cameron County based upon CAH’s promise to ‘make it as time-consuming and expensive as possible for Trump to build his wall.’”
Cards Against Humanity says it mowed the land “and maintained it in its natural state, marking the edge of the lot with a fence and a ‘No Trespassing’ sign.” But instead of Trump taking over the land, Cards Against Humanity says the parcel was “interfered with and invaded” by Musk’s space company. The lawsuit includes pictures that, according to Cards Against Humanity, show the land when it was first purchased and after SpaceX construction equipment and materials were placed on the land.
TIL: there’s a surprising number of people here that think elon musk has a right to dump shit in their neighborhood park
sue his ass 🔥
More than just a game.
Fuck him up
Hm… I don’t know what access to the property is like but, “lease” the land to someone, move an RV onto the land, arm him, then I’ll chip in to give SpaceX a hard time every damn day until they leave.
Oh. Oh this could be interesting 🍿
If you’re an original 2017 CAH Saves America subscriber and you want to increase the pressure on Elon, here’s a thing you can post on Twitter (the platform he wants you to call “X” for his own sexual gratification):
In 2017, I paid Cards Against Humanity to protect a pristine plot of border land from Trump’s racist wall. But then an even richer, more racist billionaire—Elon Musk—stole my land and dumped his shit all over it. @ElonMusk owes me $100. #ElonOwesMe100Bucks www.ElonOwesYou100Dollars.com
Or if you’re not a subscriber, but you still think Elon Musk is a charity-embezzling, conspiracy-peddling eugenicist manchild who trades horses for in-flight handjobs, post this:
In 2017, 150k people paid Cards Against Humanity to protect a pristine plot of border land from Trump’s racist wall. But then an even richer, more racist billionaire—@ElonMusk—stole their land and dumped his shit all over it. Fuck that! www.ElonOwesYou100Dollars.com #ElonOwesMe100Bucks
who trades horses for in-flight handjobs,
Lmao, I wanna know the story behind this line
Im going to interpret that headline that he requested it from the horse and not read any further.
“you ever had a hoof-job before”
horse takes another drag from its cigarette
If you have to ask, you can’t afford it.
Reeeeheeeeeeee. Pfffft. Excuse me, sorry about. I’m a horse after all.
Thanks!
Lol, what an idiot. I’m going to develop an allergy to popcorn at this rate
Musk also infringed on their digging a hole for yourself past the point of any reason, apparently wasting money just to expand the hole.
Here’s the link to a site apparently put up by the Cards Against Humanity folks detailing their side of the story: https://elonowesyou100dollars.com/
Lmao, I still have my deed to the land. I’m about to be rich, friends :)
I don’t recall if I still have that deed, but I do have my flag for Hawaii 2, and my royal title from the one castle. And pictures/letters from those Chinese factory workers thanking me for that day off
Hey fellow co-owner.
Invest the $100, and you’ll be a billionaire in a matter of a few hundred years!
I know you’re joking, but people really underestimate just how rich Elon Musk and other billionaires are. Say you went back to the time of Christ, 0 AD, and got a really good job. Say you were making $10,000 a day, in today’s dollars. $10,000 a day, every day, no days off. What’s even more amazing, say you were super good at saving. So good that you squirreled that $10,000 away every day without spending a penny. And you did that every day, for the last 2,000 some years (good for you for being immortal as well).
If you did all that, and then did it another 34 times, you would almost have as much money as Elon Musk.
I bet Jeff Bezos would like to own your land.
Omg I love these people’s humor.
This headline reads like a mad lib. Good luck CAH, I cannot wait to see how Elmo tries to act like he respects property rights while having done something like this
This headline reads like a mad lib
It also reads like a game of cards against humanity.
Good point
He only respects the right to his property.
His right to others’ property apparently.
You down with O.P.P? https://youtu.be/idx3GSL2KWs
Nah that’s not me! Anymore
This was not on my 2024 bingo card.
Hey, no problem; You just earned a bunch of free equipment and materials! You’ll make a killing selling that shit second-hand to NASA.
From their pictures it looks like it’s mostly just a bunch of dirt and offcuts of building materials. Probably worthless, but it might be amusing to reassemble their own trash into a spite fence on whatever part of SpaceX’s perimeter adjoins their property.
Damn, I might make $100. Or $2.
Sweet.
