They had slaves. A lot of slaves.

The pyramids being built with slaves is largely incorrect.

I suppose it was the hustler grindset

Maybe not the "build the pyramid" itself. Just maybe. But all the transportation, accomodations and food for the builders surely came from slaves.

The hell of one idea that just won't die. It was created out of thin air by sheer force of racist speculation, and known to be wrong for close to a century. Yet people still keep repeating it.

people need to think than they have it better than people in the past did. it gives them motivation and a happy attitude, and as we all know, happy workers are more productive, so media lets them keep that attitude.

Just throw human death and suffering at them until they're finished!
