Cards Against Humanity — yes, the raunchy, word-based party game — has launched a legal battle against Elon Musk and SpaceX. CAH, known for its well-meaning publicity stunt, has sued the space company over allegedly using a plot of land in Texas belonging to the game company. In 2017 it fundraised a bunch of money to purchase a plot of land on the Texas-Mexico border, making it impossible for then-President Donald Trump to complete his long-promised border wall.
"Donald Trump is a preposterous golem who is afraid of Mexicans. He is so afraid that he wants to build a $20 billion wall that everyone knows will accomplish nothing," the company wrote at the time. "So we’ve purchased a plot of vacant land on the border and retained a law firm specializing in eminent domain to make it as time-consuming and expensive as possible for the wall to get built.
" Years later that same plot of land is at the center of the company's dispute with Musk and SpaceX. CAH alleged in a lawsuit that SpaceX, which has facilities nearby, has been using the land without permission and leaving materials strewn about. Wrote the game company in a statement : The company promised it would "equally split the lawsuit's net proceeds among all 150,000 of our original subscribers, up to $100 each.
" It included images of the land, allegedly showing SpaceX materials everywhere. Wrote CAH: You can find the company's state and more info, quite funnily, at www.ElonOwesYou100Dollars.
