I followed him for years and never saw any sign of ageing...

...and I am well over 70 and don't have a craggy face...
Well, there aren't many smooth faces up there in the picture...

Whose faces would be resculpted onto the mountain? Or would they just blow it all up?

Probably blow it up, and then "build back better", with joe biden, barack hussein obama, and Klaus Schwab's likenesses engraved. They'd all be featured wearing a Covid mask.

You know that guy who drafted the American Declaration of Independence as part of the Continental Congress, our first Secretary of State as a new nation, and third President of the U.S. I wonder what or who is next in this huge push to tear apart the very foundations of this country and Democracy itself.

We said this would happen. Knew it would as soon as Antifa started defacing statues of Grant and Lincoln. It was never about the CSA or Civil War...it was always about dismantling America and her core.

The wonderfulness of the mask is, you can decide who each one of the sculpts could self-identify as, on the spot! I already see Fauci, one of (or all of) the Cuomos, Pelosi's face seems particularly suited for stone; appears about to develop a crack —good thing she's wearing a mask to hold her face together.

You knew that the New York city council would rearrange their statuary years in advance? What a specific and useless form of precognition.

I have been told that an active fantasy life is important.

I don't see any evidence of this "preknowledge"...can you provide? I see where some council members held the opinion that removal was desirable in years past, but no actual plans to remove statues.

Erm as someone has commented the statue is being moved to where it was originally put up.

There's no clear evidence for that, as stated in the first paragraph. That's the opinion of one historian, and nothing more (last paragraph).

a little-known city commission voted Monday, but it's unclear where it will go.

Yes! I enjoy it, anyway... Though as a general rule, I don't try to actualize it, nor to force it on others.

You said in post I quoted that you knew it would happen prior to it happening.
