Seriously holy shit this meme's potency is off the charts. I never thought of the pyramids (and everything else slaves built back then of course).

This meme needs to be a reply to every Twitter blue checkmark. But we all know they will ban this image.

We should send some blue checkmarks to mexico and Peru and have them force those people to give back The land to Aztecs and Inca

The live stream them getting their severed heads kicked down temple stairwells to appease a rain god. It’s their culture and it’s beautiful.

Reject colonization. Restore mass murder and rape

They already did. Mestizos have far higher birth rates than whites In Mexico, and like 2% of Peru’s population is white.

Yeah. Why feed your slaves quality food when you can just give them trash and beat them if they get uppity?

And how would slaves know how to build a complex architectural wonder like the pyramids?

A whipping cane is an impressive instructional aid.

“See that big block? Move that and put it on top of that one.”

The slave labor wasn’t involved in the design process, lol.

Actually the evidence shows that one of the primary wages was beer. Not a joke.

Quite a bit of archeological documentation on Volunteers, and wages.

Like Robert Schoch's and other Geologist's work on the Sphinx being much older than previously thought. Erosion patterns relative to rainfall is a literal science, and that science does not align with the dogma of the generally proposed date period for construction. It takes time for older outdated scientific dogmas to catch up with advances in science. People build their entire careers around a hypothesis which turn out to be inaccurate.

Looking into Cocaine/ Coca Alkaloids being found in Egyptian mummies, and buried wealthy Egyptians from the Dynastic Periods is also such a wrinkle, and real pain in the ass for older Egyptologists. It was long held as Dogma that transatlantic ontact, and commerce was impossible during the Dynastic Periods. Mass Spectrometry has advanced enough to detect the Coca Alkaloids in these ancient bodies, which we know could have only come from Peru. The evidence is irrefutable for transatlantic shipping. Thus, the Theories must shift to meet the evidence. So too must the Slave Model for having build the pyramids shift as our science has advanced.

Correct on the beer. This was started by phoenicians. It was called liquid bread at the time.
It gave just enough calories to function and they had enough at night that it would inhibit escape attempts.

They also had red hair. Same thing happened to Egypt as is happening to Europe now. Just like with the pyramids, after the population of Europe is replaced, people will be picking the marble cladding off buildings and building slums with salvaged materials.

Their dental remains showed significantly more cavities than the upper classes, and based on analysis of archaeological remains, they were supposedly fed a diet that consisted mainly of wheat and other grains.

In egypt, grains were slave food.

Too bad more people don't realize that in modern day, too.

hahhahaha the globalist re-education camps say that they werent slaves hahahahah ....

even though the source material contradicts

"Many slaves who worked for temple estates lived under punitive conditions, but on average the Ancient Egyptian slave led a life similar to a serf. They were capable of negotiating transactions and owning personal property. Chattel and debt slaves were given food but probably not given wages." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_ancient_Egypt https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Slave_Market,_Mono_version.jpg

Egyptian slaves, specifically during the New Kingdom era, originated from foreign lands. The slaves themselves were seen as an accomplishment to Egyptian kings’ reign, and a sign of power. Slaves or b3k were seen as property or a commodity to be bought and sold. Their human qualities were disregarded and were merely seen as a property to be used for a master’s labor. Unlike the more modern term, “serf”, Egyptian slaves were not tied to land; the owner(s) could use the slave for various occupational purposes. The slaves could serve towards the productivity of the region and community. Slaves were generally men, but women and families could be forced into the owner’s household service.[5]

The fluidity of a slave’s occupation does not translate to “freedom”. It is difficult to use the word ‘free’ as a term to describe slave’s political or social independence due to the lack of sources and material from this ancient time period.[9] Much of the research conducted on Egyptian enslavement has focused on the issue of payment to slaves. Masters did not commonly pay their slaves a regular wage for their service or loyalty. The slaves worked so that they could either enter Egypt and hope for a better life, receive compensation of living quarters and food, or be granted admittance to work in the Beyond.[10] Although slaves were not “free” or rightfully independent, slaves in the New Kingdom were able to leave their master if they had a “justifiable grievance”. Historians have read documents about situations where this could be a possibility but it is still uncertain if independence from slavery was attainable

The Old Kingdom built the Pyramids, not the New Kingdom. And under the Old Kingdom, no slave would be given the honor of participating in the building of a tomb for their god-king. They could make bricks and mix mortar and shit, but Artisans and Craftsmen cut the blocks to precision and put them into the proper place so the whole fucking thing wouldn't blow out like earlier pyramids had a tendency to do before they got good at Math.

There are also accounting records of the workers being paid.

We know the pyramids were not built by slave labor. There were several months each year when the farmers had nothing to do, so they hired free farmers to build the pyramids. They were typically paid in beer and garlic, and we have found graffiti which basically amounts to different work crews smack talking each other about how slow they were. However, just about all other buildings in ancient Egypt were built with slave labor. They captured and kept tons of slaves for labor they didn't want to do, like pretty much every other civilization at the time.

This meme is double wrong. Pyramids were not built by slaves, and obviously Egyptians are not black. Not even close, they are a completely different race.

Go in Egypt and call them blacks and they'll probably lynch you.

Aren’t modern day egyptians actually arabs cause the muslims conquests bred them out of existance?

I think Copts are the oldest Egyptians and Copts have Greek ancestry.

Look at the hieroglyphics. Blacks are portrayed as black, Egyptians are not. Blacks originate from Sub-Saharan Africa. North Africa has historically been 'Arabish.'

"obviously Egyptians are not black"

That's the punch line, right there

2,200 years ago in the ancient Egyptian city Tebtunis, Egyptians voluntarily entered into slave contracts with the local temple for all eternity. And they even paid a monthly fee for the 'privilege'.

Depends on what part of Eygpt you go to. There are plenty of black Egyptians there. The country is located in Africa and farther south you go in the country the more blacks you come across.

They are recent immigrants. They have nothing to do with the Egyptian civilization.

The Sarah desert used to be an impenetrable natural barrier, so the continent of Africa is cut off in two parts.
