So only people who believe in a border wall are allowed to build privacy fences around personal property?
Not saying I agree/disagree with the border wall here as I actually have very mixed thoughts about it, but I also don't see the equivalency of the two things.
Anyone who has notoriety is a target for psycho celebrity worshipers who just want to poke around your yard and stare into your windows, take pictures of you, your children, or use your celebrity status to do something nutso to garner their own 15 minutes of fame.
People are free to build walls around property they own (subject to local building codes) with their $$$. To claim hypocrisy here someone had better determine that NO Trump owned properties are walled.
If we're working with the premise the border land is owned by all Americans, in order to make a fair comparison, building of the wall should be decided by the vote of its owners. Zuckerberg is 'guilty' of doing what he wants with property he owns, nothing else despite what his detractors may say.

And any country that has a high standard of living is a target for illegal migrants. Can you see the equivalency now?

So, you believe Zuckerberg opposes the wall due to private property rights? Is that what you really believe? If so, why would he have been suing people in Hawaii in order to force them to sell their property?
I think it's pretty clear that Zuckerberg doesn't want a border wall because, in his mind, we dont have the right to keep others out. In this case it's hypocrisy.

Wow, a rich elitist wall hypocrite, imagine that.
Perhaps he owns pets or horses? Give him the benefit of the doubt, jeesh

Ha ha ha, not
You really don't see the point I'm making, or that there is a difference between someone's yard and an international border, or that he is building his property fence with his own money rather than the taxpayers?

He built his wall to keep unwelcome people out.
He opposes the US building a wall to keep unwelcome people out.
Hypocrisy.
