Nothing quite like building a monument that actually helps people if/when apocalypse comes and society collapses, only for people to get super pissed off about it and bomb it.
This is one reason why humans should go extinct if there is ever an apocalypse. We should just all succumb to the end of times because we clearly don’t deserve society if we’re destroying things that actively help when society collapses.
Edit:
After hearing some of the things that may or may not have been on the monument, I’ll have to do more research into it to make a better judgement on whether destroying it was good or not.
why wait, lets start now

I disagree with your assessment. The Guidestones weren’t there to help society rebuild after an apocalypse. It was built to scare you into thinking an unavoidable, likely human caused, cataclysm was coming. The builders clearly infused “bad human” into it’s message when they say to keep the population under 500 Million. It’s all part of the narrative to keep people chasing the cheese at all expenses. This creates ample opportunities for someone else to get rich off your fear. It’s similar to the gold rush. Who got rich in the gold rush? The merchants.
Podcast ep about it (Qanon is in the title of the show, but they are very much not conspiracists; they look at stuff like this to better understand society’s brokenness.):

Wasn’t it destroyed?
To be fair, the subject line says “was”
was
If the the creators were serious about the monument they’d have put it far away where extremists couldn’t easily bomb it. They should have been able to foresee the rise of reactionary forces as the collapse neared.
Still, plenty of time to make another.
“The inscription read: 1)Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature. 2)Guide reproduction wisely – improving fitness and diversity. 3)Unite humanity with a living new language. 4)Rule passion – faith – tradition – and all things with tempered reason. 5)Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts. 6)Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court. 7)Avoid petty laws and useless officials. 8)Balance personal rights with social duties. 9)Prize truth – beauty – love – seeking harmony with the infinite. 10)Be not a cancer on the Earth – Leave room for nature – Leave room for nature.”
Half of them aren’t even clear like #8 which depends entirely on how much you value each. Maybe we should presuppose that our ideas are the best so we don’t poison future generations with our equivalents.of eugenics.
Will need to make a bunch of them rather than put them where extremists cant bomb them - after all they still need to be accessible after an apocalypse. Multiple redundancy, make them cheaper, maybe less durable, but get them in so many places that there will always be a few left around. Maybe task someone with knocking out mass produced reproductions and swapping them out whenever one gets wrecked
did they ever catch the terrorists who bombed this?
Did they ever catch the Jan 6 pipe bombers?
Sometimes they just don’t want to.
it’s interesting how the word terrorist isn’t applied to these people, don’t us think? it is what they are.
