When I look at pictures of the great pyramids in Egypt all I can think about is the tremendous amount of slave labor that would have been required to build those things (the pyramids were originally covered in white *polished!* limestone so it would glimmer in the sunlight). More than half the population would have been slaves to these crazy rulers who thought they were gods on earth. What the world doesn’t realize today is that when 90%+ of the global population is in debt up to their eyeballs with no glimmer of hope to ever pay off their rolling and ever increasing debts, we are living in a very similar situation. One difference between then and now is at least the Egyptian knew they were slaves.

I don’t buy for a second they did it with slave labor. Look into the machining marks left in the granite. They were using mechanical leverage/ industrial processes. The cutting marks prove that. Regardless moving over 2 million tons of stone even with heavy machinery would have likely taken 100s of years to build. They weren’t temples or tombs, they had some sort of function I can’t begin to understand but regardless there was more going on there than egotistical rulers and slave labor…

Either way we should still end fiat slavery 😂

We know so little about our history. Forbidden archaeology is an interesting topic. There are multiple ancient sites where laser tech or other modern machinery was used to cut stones with absolute perfection. Hard to verify but I’m open to the idea that there were other advanced civilizations before us. Maybe the pyramids are 25.000 years old and made by Atlanteans.

What up my advanced machining brother. We’ll pyramidpill Preston yet.

Look up The Land of Chem on YouTube, very compelling and well-developed theory on the pyramids as chemical plants. The Red pyramid at Dashur is the most developed, with every architectural feature included and even telltale chemical residues found on the walls in the different reaction stage chambers, in line with predictions from the chemical process as we use it today.

Unfortunately the guy is annoying as a presenter and is shilling his fiction book based on the theory, wish he’d focus on the excellent research he’s doing.

I’m more in line with some form of power generation/ collection. Either way they definitely had a function in my eyes. You don’t go to that length to build something to stick a dead guy in lol.
