how foolish of you to think they DIDNT have that

Did they put the blocks into place with their economic activity?
No, the workers literally put them into place but the economic activity around them provided the food and drink and whatnot to the labourers.

The difference is the pyramids exist
Just need another 21,000 people working on it

According to our internal call and subsequent meetings, we need to leverage the most recent rock technology in order to raise the level of productivity and the scalability of our pyramid business.

I hope you're not taking info from christian piblications. These were professionals who lived in a dedicated settlement.

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.

Lots and lots of beer
Ha! You got me there. I was just about to complain that none mentioned slaves, then saw the comment that did mention them (together with aliens) which is (imho) even worst than ignoring their suffering... but here you are, making my day by reminding me that those slaves had a "fair" (/s) pay for their suffering-work

While Egypt did practice slavery, evidence suggests the pyramids were built by well-fed craftsmen.

If a slave is granted accommodation and food by his master, is it functionally different from a worker in a country with no social security, whose wage does not cover both food and accommodation?

Still a better outcome to worker ratio,

Like you mentioned, Ancient Egypt did have slavery, so even if there's evidence of temporary villages for paid workers, it's very hard to believe slaves were also not involved as well on projects of this scale.
Even on the hardly off chance that there were 0 slaves near the pyramid, the whole material gathering and transport job to the pyramid site was an insanely huge amount of labour as well.
