who knew that the attack from mars would come from earth first ?!?
So all I take from this is they took your money and did absolutely nothing with it to do anything to protect the land beyond marking it?
Edit
Our longstanding reputation as a company that makes outrageous promises and actually keeps them is on the line! We promised we’d use every legal tool at our disposal to protect this land from bullies like Trump and Musk (who's spending millions to get Trump electedand also wants to build the stupid wall). If we don’t take action now, why would anyone ever trust us again?
Maybe because you didn’t do anything to actually do what you said…?
I don't know why people are downvoting you. At the very least, it seems like they didn't even check on the land for years. Notice it's a 2017 photo and a 2024 one. No progress pics in the middle, no "we told them to stop on X and Y date and here's photos of them continuing".
They abandoned the property for years because all they cared about was squatting on the wall being built, which by having the deed they were doing. They didn't do anything further because that was never their goal.
So honestly, while what Elon did is shitty and illegal, them trying to claim the some moral high ground by acting like it was an environmental sanctuary is disingenuous. In fairness, the original purpose of stopping the wall from being built is STILL being upheld. Elon's not building the wall there as far as I can tell. Just storing junk(that CAD should just scrap and sell since it's abandoned on their lot). Heavy machinery is worth a lot....
Nah. They bought the land so they could use it for a promotional event.
And now they are using it for another promotional event.
In all fairness, CAHcorp (whatever their business name is) are pretty much the epitome of "dumbass white liberals". Right down to how they are so adamant about "humor" that is just white guys saying racial slurs and talking about dead babies and thinking it is the funniest shit ever. So I can easily see them thinking that just owning the land was all they needed to do because nobody would ever violate the law or ignore their rights.
I mean, just look at all the replies that boil down to Arthur the aardvark saying "but musk broke the rules!!!"
Also: This never really would have stopped trump's wall. Eminent domain would have kicked in (basically what spacex tried) and they would have gotten a pennies on the dollar check and told to go fuck themselves.
was all they needed to do because nobody would ever violate the law or ignore their rights.
They are suing the people who violated the law and ignored their rights right now. What should they have done instead?
I used your dead baby's finger to type this comment. It was hard at first but then I realized I just had to cut off the rest of the baby and just use the finger. I was tired, cut me some slack.
Wait this isn't your baby... it's... impossible... A virgin birth! Hallelujah!
I'm sorry they didn't patrol on their high horse to gate keep their land
We promised we’d use every legal tool at our disposal to protect this land from bullies like
Thats literally what they promised to do with the money they fleeced from people though….
We promised we'd use every legal tool at our disposal
I'm sorry, do they have a cavalry?
They could rent one, or patrol it more often than they did. They made a claim, and failed to follow through on it, and this isn’t the first time.
Are you literally refreshing for my reply? Jesus fucking Christ. You guys are insufferable, and have unrealistic expectations. Enjoy always being disappointed in life and may you stub your toe on the way to the bathroom every night
Ironic considering how fast you responded to me.
And I’ve only pointed out that there was more they could have done, and they claimed they would do anything.
I’m sorry that trying to have a conversation about this upsets you so, but why do people always try to derail conversations that don’t align with their (in this case) objectively wrong views? There is a hell of a lot more they could have done to protect the land, and they claimed they would, and failed on that. Why does this upset you so much?
I mean the shits on their property so just take it and sell it.
