Can't really tell, bit does Prometheus have a ring on his finger, with a stone in the middle of it? If not it is not honoring the mythical history.

Elon didn’t have anything to do with this. It’s not on starbase property and he didn’t commission or pay for it.

You can google the backstory on the foundry which is… interesting.

Icarus statue would have been too on the nose, I guess?

You just hate it when a white man is a visionary. If you had your way we’d all be living in mud huts

The dude trying to go to Mars giving a hat tip to the Greek Titan that embodied human progress and technological advancement is apparently butthurt worthy to passive aggressive wimps who celebrate Greek and Roman mythology every year for Mardi Gras.

Leftists hate Elon bc he’s not a leftist. So they hate any sort of endeavor he’s behind, not matter what. It must be exhausting to be so mindlessly consumed by hatred.

Lucifer and Prometheus are synonymous with each other. Both are represented as light bearers

I don’t hate anything. I own spacex stock, so I hope the company does well.

I just don’t fan boy it up, just like I don’t care about any other billionaire.

If Elon needs statues to keep building the future, then give the man some statues and let him cook.

I know many of my lefty leaning friends started despising him after his heel turn but he’s still literally the most innovative and greatest modern gift to humanity in the last hundred years plus.

Where’s the eagle eating his liver? That would’ve been a badass statue!

Yeah, but it would have to be Hephaestus, the most coonass of the Greek gods, in a welding cap.

It’s not on Starbase, it’s on private land.

Are you insinuating that Greek culture was not the foundation of the West and should be scrapped?

Sounds very....muslim.
