    And I’d like to point out that the “proof” that slaves weren’t used to build the pyramids is some laborer villages being found and gasp

    They got to eat FOOD!

    BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE

    Some of the people that died in accidents were buried on site! By people that thought you’d serve them in the afterlife too! What an honor!

    So we know SOME laborers were paid! And they got to eat food! And serve eternally instead of having their bodies dismembered and fed to hogs! For some pyramids!

    And a KNOWN slaver culture definitely wouldn’t have had some people working on it be slaves and some wouldn’t be! As any student of history knows, either everyone’s a slave or no one is!

    Cue a thousand Redditor “UM AKSHUALLYS!”
