Read the passage below and answer the question.

But as for those prophetic oracles,
they’re worthless. Polybus has taken them
to Hades, where he lies.

Why is this statement by Oedipus ironic?

because Polybus is dead.

because Creon is Polybus’s son

because the prophecies are true

because the prophecies are false
