Shut off their water lines, cut off their power, cancel trash collection, and close their roads. Failure to abide by the laws regulating infrastructure means they don't deserve infrastructure.

Eeehhh, how about you just arrest the owner? Mich more effective and a lot less work involved

Plus, when I break the law, I go to jail. Same here

It's owned by a corporation. Corporations have the rights of a person. But unlike actual people, you can't arrest a corporation.

You can, however, confiscate all their stuff.

Time to remove SpaceX from the Planet

Last month, the Department of Justice sided with SpaceX in the NAACP’s lawsuit, saying the unpermitted turbines were a matter of “national, economic, and energy security.”

This says it all

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Breaking the law is a matter of national security. So is raping children and covering it up. So much security!

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 hour ago

No longer a "system of laws not people" anymore. If it ever was.

[–] kalleboo@lemmy.world 18 points 4 hours ago

Of course, the only people who have to make sacrifices for national, economic, and energy security are poor people

And when you're ~~a star~~ rich, they let you do it. You can do anything.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 20 points 6 hours ago

evidently you can grab children by the pussy and still become president.

With SpaceX we actually have a company that has a real incentive to wreck the planet and that should have everyone concerned.

[–] BillyClark@piefed.social 5 points 2 hours ago

I get what you're saying, but it's still harder to live in space or on Mars than to try to fix Earth. What I'm saying is that SpaceX would have to be run by a complete idiot for them to think they have an incentive to ruin the planet...... Wait.... It is run by a complete idiot.
