That website says it is "legally allowed" to sell land and you become the legal owner, but the moon treaty (article 11 numbers 2 and 3) strictly forbid it. How has the website gotten around basically being a scam?

Because we're never going to get our shit sorted out if we don't fuck around with space! Think about it for a second. America was a clusterfuck of anger in the late 1960s. Between racial tensions being fairly high, Vietnam dividing the country and a significant shift away from the "Women live in the kitchen" mentality that had prevailed there was significant turmoil....and yet, when three men set a rocket down on another orbital body, something that practically speaking was utterly meaningless to everyone, we were all one. We were all at peace with each other. Nobody cared about racial tensions, nobody cared about the war, we were all friends, if only for those scant few hours that Neil and Buzz bounced around on the Lunar surface.
I wouldn't be surprised if a joint US/EU/Asian Mars landing had a similar effect. I genuinely believe if, in 2019 humanity walked on Mars, for a few days at least we would have some semblance of peace.
Here, have a few listens to this. Carl makes quite a few veeery good points in this monologue.
