    FYI, the mountain was originally called “Six fathers” and was a holy site for the natives. The project was actually never approved or agreed upon by all parties, rather so spontaneously made and never completed.

    In other words, it was desecration and utter disrespect.

      It was started by a random guy, and iirc he did it because he knew it was sacred

        I don’t think it was done overnight. And if none stopped him earlier, then that rock wasn’t that sacred apparently.

      The lazy and religious(insane) project manager didn’t even bother to clean up the rubble.

      Like, they just left a giant pile of rocks right under the faces, it’s incredibly ugly and the pictures conveniently leave it just out of the frame.

    Remember when Adam Conover covered it. So much bad karma with what was done to it.

      So you think it was presidented before it was presidented?
