CARDS AGAINST HUMANITY describe themselves as “the party game for horrible people”.
They’re known for their PR stunts, like when they introduced a pink version of the game with a heftier price tag than the original game, as a parody of the countless ‘For Her’ products out there that don’t do anything special, but still cost more than gender neutral products or products targeting men (e.g. razors).
This time around, the card game company are attempting to take a stand against Donald Trump and the wall he wants to build between Mexico and the United States.
They launched a website explaining their ‘plan’.
It’s aptly named ‘cardsagainsthumanitysavesamerica.com‘ and explains:
It’s 2017, and the government is being run by a toilet. We have no choice: Cards Against Humanity is going to save America.
They describe Trump as a ‘preposterous golem who is afraid of Mexicans’.
He is so afraid that he wants to build a twenty-billion dollar wall that everyone knows will accomplish nothing. So we’ve purchased a plot of vacant land on the border and retained a law firm specialising in eminent domain to make it as time-consuming and expensive as possible for the wall to get built.
As a holiday promotion, they asked people to pay $15 to receive six surprises in December relating to the project. So many people signed up, that it is now sold out. They hope to save America from “Injustice, lies, racism, the whole enchilada.”
They also warn readers that if they voted for Trump they might “want to sit this one out.”
This sounds like an episode of Nathan For You.
