Und wer sich nicht mehr an (nicht mehr verf\u00fcgbare) virale Tweets oder <a href=\"https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/imaginationstation/detroit-needs-a-statue-of-robocop\">Kickstarter-Kampagnen</a> von vor anderthalb Jahrzehnten erinnern kann, <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RoboCop_statue\">dem hilft Wikipedia weiter</a>:</p>\n<blockquote><p>The RoboCop statue is a bronze statue of RoboCop, a fictional cybernetically enhanced Detroit Police Department officer from the 1987 film RoboCop. The idea for the statue originated with a 2011 exchange between Detroit mayor Dave Bing and a pseudonymous user on Twitter. In response to the suggestion that Detroit have a statue of RoboCop to rival Philadelphia&#8217;s statue of Rocky, Bing replied that there were no plans to erect such a statue in the city. The exchange went viral and a subsequent Kickstarter campaign raised $67,436 to fund the construction of the statue.</p></blockquote>\n<p>Bekanntlich ist Popkultur immer dann am besten, wenn sie nicht verkauft, sondern verankert wird. \ud83e\udd41 (via <a href=\"https://waxy.org/2025/12/15-years-after-a-viral-tweet-detroit-has-its-robocop-statue/\">Waxy</a>)</p>\n<img src=\"https://eay.cc/_a/matomo.php?idsite=1&#038;rec=1&#038;action_name=RSS&#038;url=https://eay.cc/2025/the-robocop-statue-arrives-in-detroit/&#038;rand=2554464289\" data-eay-feed-tracking=\"1\" style=\"border:0;\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" alt=\"\" />",
