I know this is an unpopular opinion, but statues of real people are cringe… and Mount Rushmore is basically maximum cringe by that measure.
Reminded me of this song (which is german) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aC872j2-PDw
Im gonna try translating the most relevant section:
Wait till you hear about the Colossus of Rhodes
Or the Statue of Unity! Even Christ the Redeemer is taller than Mount Rushmore.
I think there was this ozymandias guy once too..
