Land purchased to save it from Trump's border wall 'completely f*cked' by 'gravel, tractors, and space garbage'
Elon Musk is facing down the barrel of another multimillion-dollar suit, this time from the makers of irreverent party game, Cards Against Humanity . SpaceX last week, and not because Musk's antics are moving faster than the company's writers can keep up. The lawsuit, which seeks for as much as $15 million in damages, has to do with SpaceX allegedly using a parcel of Texas property owned by CAH to stage materials and equipment for nearby construction projects.
The company behind the game, which was born in 2010 as a Kickstarter project, has undertaken numerous publicity stunts over the years to craft an image as irreverent as they are political. Perhaps its biggest joke came in 2017, kicking off the current saga. "Unfortunately, an even richer, more racist billionaire – Elon Musk – snuck up on us from behind and completely fucked that land with gravel, tractors, and space garbage," CAH said in its announcement of the lawsuit. SpaceX has reportedly spent the intervening years buying up neighboring parcels for construction projects, leaving the CAH plot largely surrounded by the construction of"large modern-looking buildings" that are"changing the entire dynamic of the area.
"Part of CAH's method to maintain this supporter relationship … is the use of humorous 'pranks' or 'stunts' that draw attention to particular issues," the suit continued. SpaceX's actions, CAH claims, have"damaged the reputation of CAH with its supporters for allowing a billionaire such as Musk to essentially steal the Property from CAH without remorse or even explanation.
