So... Feel like I am asking the obvious here but is Cards Against Humanity also employee owned?

  No.

    So how can a company that's not employee-owned become employee-owned by getting bought by another company that's not employee-owned? The only way that makes sense is if Card Against Humanity was owned by the employees of Clickhole.

      I'm a little unclear on the specifics too, even after reading the article. The article says "majority employee-owned company" So Cards Against Humanity still retains some ownership in it I presume. Here's one possibility: Maybe they bought ClickHole, and gifted over 50% of shares to the employees?

      Just a guess: Clickhole the company, owned by the employees, owes CAH $1M.

      Could also just be a philanthropic act for the media attention. CaH have done a lot of advertising through weird (mostly positive) means, it wouldn't surprise me if this was just another example.

  I thought so.
