A confusing plot hole from Planet of the Apes

Is this a meme or is this merely a statement of fact about a movie along with a photo from that movie

It's actually still earth and the protagonist time travelled.
They travelled to the past when only the upper half of the statue was built.

No! They did it! They blew it up!
And then the apes blew up their society too. How could this happen?
And then the birds took over and ruined their society.
And then the cows. And then...I don't know, is that a slug, maybe?
Noooo!

GOD DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!
I like how the only thing left of fucking New York City is made of iron and thin sheets of copper.
- For reasons not directly related to the movie, I just so happen to have this on hand.
- Whatever, but I know the commander because he's my pal. Don't think you know something about the commander. Here's a picture.

The bigger plot hole is that this is not consistent with any global warming or giant earthquake. Rising sea levels would not have a beach and rocky formation right next to statue of liberty. And a crazy violent earthquake that would move land and rock well above the statue of liberty and right next to it, would have knocked the statue over.
- No no no. They explain that in one of the prequels. It wasn't global warming or an earthquake. It was caused by a virus. You can't knock a statue over with a virus.
- See the other comment about Las Vegas

That’s the ocean after global warming. They're really in Las Vegas.
- 2001’ sea level rise, climate change is worse than I thought.

This is either satirical or the biggest WHOOSH I've seen so far this year.
- Check the community.
  
  Yeah it's memes. That doesn't clarify whether people are really thinking the status of liberty was a "confusing plot hole" or making fun of that.

No, this is a misunderstanding. This is just an unusual rock formation. It has nothing to do with the actual statue, that still stands on Earth.
- Oh, kinda like Mt Rushmore. Nature truly is remarkable.
  
  *Count Rushmore

They sold it, to pay for the debts after the stock market crash of 2025.
- I mean copper is an expensive metal these days. Probably make mint selling Lady Liberty for scrap.
  
  Unfortunately she’s hollow, like a shitty chocolate easter bunny.

Everyone forgets that the planet of apes is actually las vegas, if the camera where to go a little more to the left we would see a eiffel tower as well
- These themed hotels are getting out of hand
  
  Trump had a bunch in Atlantic City themed as casinos!
- I thought planet of apes was in hollywood?

More confusing is how it ended up next to cliffs on a shore line when it lives in a marshland enviroment
- She may have just walked there, as seen in the documentary Ghostbusters 2.
- Clearly, the statue was carried by ocean currents south from New York, through the Panama canal, then back north where it washed ashore at the tip of the Baja peninsula in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

Sold to aliens for scrap by a bankrupt country (for 10 hamburgers, which is approximately 10 hamburgers in todays hamburgers).
- Are we talking real beef?
  
  Vegan™, made from Soylent green.

What they don't explain is how everything else is gone, and even the entire coastline is different, but somehow the upper half of that particular copper statue has somehow survived

ding
- I enjoyed watching that channel but the amount of dings* over some misunderstanding about a thing that was explained a second before got to me
