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.
I used to be an avid player of CAH, but I clearly remember the feeling of sitting at my last game of it one day in my 30s and feeling very much that I, personally, had outgrown it forever.
I have, however, remained a fan of the company, their awesome stunts, and the real spirit behind them and this is certainly continuing to keep that fire in my heart burning. Go CAH! Fuck that guy.
I mean the shits on their property so just take it and sell it.
Man… That land was pristine too… Wild horses used to roam free there in the Texas moonlight. I remember how strongly it reinforced my consumer opinion of cards against humanity - I knew that as long as they kept maintaining that parcel, I could freely buy their products. If spacex is allowed to just invade that land unchecked though, and justice isn’t restored to CAH, I imagine that would impact my potential future purchasing potential by at least $1,000,000… And that’s only speaking for me. I imagine at least 100,000 of you feel the same as I do, I think damages should asking for that amount and make CAH whole again considering their lost earning potential. Those unrealized profits were callously stolen by musk.
who knew that the attack from mars would come from earth first ?!?
