    LOL, drat, they’re on to me (I tried to get the $100 even though I voted):

    Are you lying to Cards Against Humanity, [name redacted]? Big Data says you’re lying. Says you voted in 2020. Big Data knows a lot about you, [name redacted], and now we do too. So here’s a new proposal: how about you give Cards Against Humanity PAC $7.99, get 30 incredible new cards about the crazy shit that’s happened this year, and we’ll forget all about what you’ve done?

    Honestly, I was expecting a stronger rebuke.

      Being that it’s cards against humanity, I expected them to email a disapproving message to your mother.

    I used to love your card games before you got all political. Your mom used to love you before you got so fucking stupid.

    lol

    The FAQ made me lol. Here’s my favorites.

    How do you know who didn’t vote?

    We formed a Super PAC and bought the personal voting records of every American citizen from a data broker we found on the internet. It’s pretty fucked up.

    Is there some way I can force Elon Musk to pay $47 to Cards Against Humanity PAC?

    Funny you should ask! If you’re a registered voter in PA, GA, NV, AZ, NC, WI, or MI, just type your name into this dumb website for his PAC, put “[email protected]” as your referrer, and they’ll be legally obligated to pay us $47. The more people who do this, the more Musk money we’ll get to un-fuck America.

    If he doesn’t pay up, we’ll sue him again.

    This is singlehandedly the best piece of satire I have ever seen, I was rolling the entire read, bravo. As a European, this reads like a black mirror episode.

    To quote the website: “This should probably be illegal!”

        Oh for sure, just a PSA - once I found out there were cards I wanted some, then found out I couldn’t have them lol

        That doesn’t make sense to me. Trump probably gets money from outside the US too doesn’t he? Also due to US imperialism this election also affects people outside the of US

          Only fascists are allowed to blatantly violate campaign finance laws with impunity. If anybody else tries it, they immediately get mega-fucked by the fascist-stacked courts.

    Could someone explain how exactly this and what Musk is doing is legal? They mention a loophole, but don’t say what the loophole is

    Neat message but shit site design. Color changing and shifting the font is awful to read.

    I don’t really like this campaign.

    I liked their other anti-trump activism I heard about, but this serms unnecessarily demeaning and pathetic.

      It’s a response to Musk offering $47 for the same thing.

      Its literally mocking what the GOP is doing by doing it better in a way that points out how wrong it is.

        oh, i see.

        My eyes kind of slide away from anything musk related, so I didn’t realize this was a direct response to an actual thing happening.

        I appreciate it, it makes much more sense in context.

        that guy is such a piece of shit.

      Demeaning towards whom? The human toilet also known as trumpler? Fuck that guy! Anyways, what did you expect from Cards Against Humanity? This is who they are. At least they’re promoting involvement.

        clearly I sidestepped that highest echelon of worship and clarity.
