Yeah, the pyramids definitely has nothing to do with Egypt enslaving entire nations...

Anything is possible with slave labor. Just look at how lucrative the diamond industry is.

I don't care if you have a billion slaves at your disposal; if they can't replicate the structures with modern technology, how did massive quantities of human slaves, stack blocks that weigh up to 80 tons, 450 ft. high, with immaculate precision? What did they do, a human slave Jenga tower with everyone standing on each other's shoulders and use papyrus ropes to pull the 80 ton blocks up to the top? If you believe that, then I have a bridge to sell to you.

“Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.” -Mark Twain

If I didn't love to argue, I would be best to follow his advice.

A famous Greek historian Herodotus wrote he was told that 100k men built the pyramids over twenty years. It is unclear if this was the men on the site like how a building has construction workers, but there are many people making construction materials for the workers on site and bringing it to them. There would need to be men to feed these mens and so on. Let's say there were 100k construction workers who were delivered rocks from quarries that they had to form and move into position. There are 2.3 million stones, so each man would be responsible for roughly one stone each year to reach 2.3 million stones after twenty years. Working in teams of 365 (365 days a year), each team could be responsible for creating a stone per day and moving it into position. This doesn't seem all that hard.

The casing stones are snug, but the main stones are not even close to snug. We 100% have the technology to make the pyramids. You would have to be severely ignorant to believe we can't make the pyramids to better levels of craftsmanship. You have watched too many videos without doing your own research if you believe that.

There are tons of theories like an inner ramp theory, theories that the stones are actually cast concrete and not actual stones, but it really doesn't matter because nothing they did was magical in any way. These were master stones smiths who had been perfecting their skills for years. Moving stones takes time and manpower, and they had lots of that. But it doesn't really take much manpower with proper leverage like these two men prove:

You have zero evidence for laser weapons being used to start the Maui fires. At best you have weak circumstantial evidence, which is just as weak circumstantial for any number of conspiracy theories we could make up.

I just thought you were part of MTG jewish space lasers group. I see. You just think drones are burning down homes because forest fires are just too basic to be the cause of things burning, and you are ignorant to about fire science, but I'm getting the feeling you are probably ignorant about a lot of science. That's okay. We can explain things to you if you need clarification.

Some of the individual blocks are many tons in weight; obviously, they were not dragged and stacked by humans.
Outer space is science fiction. Aliens don't exist, as much as mainstream media wants to make people believe they do. What people think are aliens, are actually fallen angels and demons (the Nephilim). They built the pyramids and ancient structures before the worldwide flood. Read the Book of Enoch. The structures are all that remain of ancient societies that were far more advanced than ours is today. The history courses taught in school are laughably incorrect, which is obviously intentional. A stupid society is a society that is hopelessly enslaved, though the individuals believe they are free.
Do some research on secret societies, like Freemansons, Shriners, Illuminati, Order of the Phoenix, 322 Skull and Bones, the Jesuit Order, the Knights of Malta, the Knights of Columbus, Order of the Dragon, Templars, Zionists, Kabbalists, and The Brotherhood, to name a few. All of these secret societies worship The Fallen and their Nephilim offspring, who they communicate with through satanic rituals.
You have severally underestimated what people can do. They made stones smooth, which takes basic tools and lots of time, which they had both. It isn't like they made titanium cubes so perfect you can't see the seems like we can, so in what way do you believe we can't replicate what they did? As you can see from the video above, the man could have made stone hedge himself.



"Outer space is science fiction." I'm trying to wrap my head around what that even means to you because it makes zero sense to anyone who understands the definition of outer space.

There are legends that the people of Easter Island would walk the Moai statues into position. That sounds even more like a wild story than people forming and painstakingly moving these stones...until you see people walk these statues:



You clearly have some type of schizotypal personality disorder with this type of thinking. You have clearly been lost down some deep hole of conspiracy theories where you no longer have the ability to reason, judge or perceive your world for how it is. This is like the flat earthers convinced the world is flat thinking they have their eyes that are wide open and everyone else are idiots and ignorant, but clearly, they have lost themselves in aspects of evidence bias, conspiracy theories and misinformation, so much so, that they block credible information and clear facts because it doesn't fit their world view. There are people that can help you man. Counselors. Programs. Mental healthcare through your medical insurance. 1-800 numbers. Hope you seek out some help.

Yea, I'm familar with that as well. Of course, the poster says "expendable" not enslaved, for what it's worth. Nearly every major construction project through history had some level of expendable labor associated with it.

I dunno man. There is this big bright round thing in the sky that hurts when I get in a staring contest with it. Pretty sure it is a space magnifying glass.
