Cards Against Humanity sues SpaceX for $15 million

Cards Against Humanity the company behind the deliberately distasteful party game, has filed a $15 million lawsuit against SpaceX, alleging the aerospace behemoth led by Elon Musk trespassed on land it owns in Texas near the border with Mexico.

Cards Against Humanity bought the property in 2017 as a part of a stunt aimed at impeding then-President Donald Trump’s plans to build a wall along the southern border. About 150,000 people donated $15 to its crowdsourcing campaign to purchase the “pristine” vacant land, the lawsuit filed in the Cameron County District Court on Thursday said.

But for at least six months, SpaceX has “treated the Property as its own,” the lawsuit says, accusing SpaceX and/or its contractors of trespassing and, without permission, clearing the land of vegetation, laying down gravel, bringing in generators, and using it to park vehicles and store construction materials. SpaceX did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

This is really hard to understand without a bulletin board.

Jokes aside this seems like an open and shut case. You can't use land for personal/business uses that doesn't belong to you.

"Oh, he used the Trump card again"

How dare you try to slip such wordplay into my content

[TheShadowSlayer]

It’s also ignoring the fact the land was crowd funded for environmental protection by card against humanity, and Tesla has been using it as a dump site for excess construction materials polluting the area

I’m not making any sense of this without a whiteboard

Cards against humanity really doesn’t have a sexism card?

[RosyMiche]

They have photographs of what it looked like before and after. They were maintaining that patch and everything.

Mama mia! Here I go again! My my, how can I resist “Racism”?

I remember when Cards Against Humanity did this. I went to a comic convention around that time in Canada and they had a booth selling their Canadian pack with balloons and signs that all had pictures of bald eagles crying saying “we’re sorry Canada”

The content creators for this channel are fantastic!!! This is great, Informative content

"youve been illegally using our land without permission"
"but jobs :("

[legionofregion]

I don't think this even needs to be a lawsuit if someone's using land that someone else owns without permission that is 180 percent illegal

[StraightestDakregor]

This is very misleading! It makes it seem like Elon has friends.

[demilung]

"But we created jobs" like how is that related to using someone else's property?

[Jacob]

“I don’t think either of you are playing this correctly” 😂😂

[triciac.]

Nice video setup. Love that you used the cards. Did you have to buy them fresh?

[GiboAuja]

The sexism and racism alligations didnt hold up againt CAH. Basically the owner accused brought recepts.

I dont know about other acudations though. Maybe there was more. Still the company tried to be as inclusive as they could while writing new cards.
