Her's how you might also be able to help:

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 “MuskIsDumb@cah.lol” 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.

The FAQs are a riot in the Campaign PAC site.

I think it is confusing for a company to do nice things.

Can I just do all those things and take $100? I'm already planning on voting but it'd sure help.

Read their FAQ (it's quite informative and pretty funny too!). Afaik you can if you actually didn't vote the last time, lean blue, and are eligible to vote in a swing state

So this is probably a plan to call out Elon musk's stupid "pay to sign a petition" plan. Basically just buying votes. The more attention these schemes get, the more likely they will be made officially illegal.

Sort of a Satanic Temple maneuver. I like it.

From Apologize.lol

Cards Against Humanity is exploiting a legal loophole to pay America’s blue-leaning non-voters to (1) apologize for not voting last time, (2) walk us through a step-by-step plan of how they’d vote this time, and (3) post “Donald Trump is a human toilet” on social media. This whole thing should probably be illegal—so quick, give us your money before they change the law!

Highly recommend giving the whole thing a read. It's pretty funny (and messed up)

Funny but it has to be illegal right?

super pac gaming baby. Who needs legality when the supreme court just fucking explicitly allows it.

[–] threeganzi@sh.itjust.works 61 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They have a pretty fun FAQ on the campaign site explaining the legality of it.

[–] lorty@lemmy.ml 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ok that was both funny and depressing in equal measures.

pretty fucked up right
