Texas Builds Elon Musk Shrine, Cards Against Humanity Builds Roast
KEY POINTS
- •Starbase, Texas became an incorporated city in 2025 and hosts a 50-foot Prometheus titanium statue near SpaceX's launch site.
- •Cards Against Humanity raised $150,000 from 12,000 supporters for a monument criticizing Musk’s corporate impact near their 2017 border land purchase.
- •A meme-inspired bust of Musk created by crypto group ElonRWA was defaced in April 2025, coinciding with protests against Trump and Musk.
In the wild Wild West of Brownsville, Texas, Elon Musk’s cult of personality just got a full-on theme park vibe. Starbase, once a sleepy border area turned corporate rocket ranch, now hosts a 50-foot titanium Prometheus statue stealing fire for humanity (and hopefully not SpaceX’s launch contracts). Nearby, a crypto bro named Louis XXII turned an internet meme bust of Musk into a scratched-up masterpiece worthy of punk rock galleries, defaced last April amid nationwide anti-Trump-and-Musk protests. Meanwhile, Cards Against Humanity – remembering their 2017 anti-border-wall land buy – raised $150K from 12,000 fans to erect the 'Official Elon Musk is a Sad Little B—h' monument, because nothing says art like passive-aggressive fundraising. Musk apparently keeps mum, probably busy firing tweets and rockets.

(1 of 3)Only in Texas does a billionaire get a Jackson Pollock of statuary: a 50-ft titan, meme busts with gaping wounds, and a monument calling him a sad little b—h, all less dramatic than Musk’s Twitter feed.
Starbase’s attractions now include a burning titan, a vandalized meme statue, and a monument dedicated to public roasting. Welcome to Musk’s America.
Meanwhile in Texas: fireworks come from SpaceX rockets or erupting tempers over Musk’s expanding empire of broken rockets and ugly mansions.
