Granted, the artist may not have thought he was racist, but I highly doubt that many slaveowners in the US South thought they were being racist when they owned African Americans - they figured they were providing them food, shelter, and protection in exchange for work, a fair trade. Their ignorance does not make what they did more acceptable, though it does help us understand why they did it.
However, there is no horses in america before the 1600's when the Spainards Latinos brought them over. Zero horses in America. And America is the name of the Italian that descoved "New Spain".
To worship the European Horse migh state that this religon was invented in the 1960s, by a soviate russian propagandist who did not know better. The Great Spirit Horse could just be a USSR invention in the Cold War... to start civial unrest. Because you know what... before Robert Redford... you do not here much about "The Great Spirit Horse", or Mount Rushmore being racist... because the world racist in 1920s was not invented. Racist is a world invented 50 years later.
But speaking of Horses, the guy that built this in the 1920s, also built Crazy Horse national monument.
So if you think he was racist or attacking Natives... I would highly disbelieve this.
I won't use this mod myself, as to me (& many other modern 'Indians') 'Rushmore' is an eyesore symbolizing the disrespect and destruction visited on indigenous Americans. BUT, nobody uses this mod because its real-world counterpart offends anyone, nor did Pouakai intend any offense. Mount Rushmore's been in most versions of Civ, after all.
It'd be nice if the 'pedia text for this Rushmore wonder had a bit about the site's history (& I'm glad to help draft that, if Pouakai is interested). Even better, in-game effects could increase unhappiness from occupied cities -- but that's just my biased opinion.
While I definitely get where Rat. is coming from, there's no need to be obnoxious -- whether defending or criticizing this mod.
But to comment on your genuine constructive criticism, you'd be surprised that, in gameplay, it's not as powerful as it sounds. A 35% reduction at that point in the game might only be a total of 30 gold for a tile, and the -15% unhappiness will be only about 10 happiness.
