Trump-inspired Mark Zuckerberg builds a wall around his new Hawaiian home
You know what’s cooler than a wall? A wall around a $100 million property.
I love small-town newspapers. From Kauai’s number #1 paper, The Garden Island:
a few weeks ago, a crew started to build a wall which happens to belong to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.
“The feeling of it is really oppressive. It’s immense,” Hall said. “It’s really sad that somebody would come in, and buy a huge piece of land and the first thing they do is cut off this view that’s been available and appreciative by the community here for years.”
And further down:
“I’m super unhappy about that. I know that land belongs to Zuckerberg. Money is no option for him. I’m 5’8” and when I’m walking, I see nothing but wall,” Mcmillen said. “It just doesn’t fit in with the natural beauty that we have here. There are people on the island who money can pay for anything. These kind of things that they do take away what Kauai is all about.”
Zuckerberg bought the 750-acre, US$100 million piece of land in 2014.
