    Whatever they build, it needs a plaque that says β€œI built this monument before Elon killed himself”

    Well this a fun experiment. Looking forward to the updates.

  • He's been saying he wants to do more live streams, too. Based on a past livestream he did, that'll be fun for many people!

    Statue should be based on this picture:

    Maybe by the same artist who did the Ronaldo statue:

    Plaque should be:

    "What day/night will be the wildest party on your island?"

    I had no idea so much had happened around that parcel of land

    Shame about their exclusive use of social media owned by another sad little billionaire bitch. But otherwiseβ€”great.

    Well, unfortunately, most people are on these sad little bitch platforms, and outreach of this is important.

    I don't mind too much about them using it for outreach but if that is the only platform they use then that's a bit weird.

    So they own the land, elon stole it and what did the court say??? There's more plot holes than pot holes in california's streets.

    Elon didn't steal it, but SpaceX did trespass on it with construction equipment and left it trashed. They settled out of court for an undisclosed amount.

    Sounds like they annexed it into a town, too. Seems like he's trying pretty hard to steal it, if that's the case.

    β€œAnnexed” is an odd way for them to frame it. The property was previously outside of any incorporated cities. The city of Starbase was later incorporated and the property is in the area covered by the new city boundaries.

    The land was bulldozed, turned into a gravel lot and used as a construction depot. CAH sued, and just before trial SpaceX offered them a settlement which they accepted. The exact details were confidential, but the land was finally vacated by the trespassers, and a local landscaping company removed the literal tons of gravel that had been compacted into the soil and restored it to a natural looking state.

    Since they settled out of court, the case was dropped and the court didn't say anything.

    So the land was bought from donations for a purpose? CAH sold the land and kept the profits? How is this not fraud?

    Yes, the land was bought with donations in an effort to protect it. What? No, at no point did they sell the land, not sure were you got that idea. The trespassers (SpaceX) vacated (took all their shit and left) the plot. It was then restored, as much as possible, to its previous state. They had hoped to get enough money to refund everyone who donated and keep the land, but their lawyers advised that the settlement offer of stopping trespassing and restoring the land was already as good as they were going to get in court. Sadly "restored" is the closest they could do to protecting it, at a high legal expense to themselves.

    Waste of money; as if there is going to be any form of introspection from Musk.

    I don't really think that's the intention.

    The world is being raped and burned by these assholes. If the only thing I can do is to contribute to being a momentary irritant to one of them then so be it.

    If they're after suggestions for designs, I say let grok create it. Add an extra level of spice and spectacle when it obviously ends up in court

    It's like 2B2T where you build anything anywhere you want, people can grief and build over your ruins and nobody does anything about it.

    I mean they made Minecraft in real life amirite fellow gamers??? Wholesome 100 gaming reference!!!

    The only part I dislike about this, is that I can't find on their website what portion of the $10 you pay will go to building something on the land.

    Why does CAH, a hugely profitable game producer, need to crowd fund a comedy statue that will get them loads of publicity?

    need to crowd fund a comedy statue that will get them loads of publicity?

    Because it gives them loads more of publicity, also people loves to be involved if they have a chip in it.

    Why do people buy subscriptions for the biggest streamers, earning 10s of thousands of dollars in ad revenue each month? Because they want to be a part of it, they want to chip in to let the show go on

    Maybe they have employees to pay and fucking with billionaires and the right is something that desperately needs organization and enactment by people with lots of outreach but is ultimately up to all of us working together?

    "need to" and "intelligent business strategy" don't have to be the same thing.

    Sure, they could just find it themselves with the money that SpaceX paid them for fucking yo their land. Or they could do that while also offering people to pay a pittance to join in the fun and further dig the knife into Elon to show how many people hate the sad little bitch with no friends. And, you know, the free publicity from making fun of said sad little bitch.

    Ah yes, so the rich guy behind this company decided to profit from the slightly richer guy everyone knows

    slightly richer guy

    The wealthiest co-founder Max Temkin has an estimated wealth of 250 million. Elon is now at almost 700 billion.

    Musk is 2800 times wealthier than Temkin. The word "slightly" is mathematically incorrect.

    Well one of these rich guys got involved with the government to gut funding to millions of people who needed it and almost certainly stole data in the process.

    The other guy is against that guy. So for me its an easy choice.
