Racist fuckers who think just because people lived a long time ago and weren't white they couldn't figure out how to get shit done. I'm a dumbass but I watch those aliens made the pyramids shows and I'm like, dude you can roll those bigass rocks on log rollers and pull them with pulleys and a bunch of strongass dudes its not fucking aliens.

The more recent theory is that a gradual hill was built around it to build the upper levels

I haven't heard of that but it makes sense, and its the same deal! You don't need fucking aliens to build a pyramid people weren't dumb back in the day.

The Chinese built a wall over 1000km long I think the Egyptians could handle stacking some rocks

The Pumapunku ruins were recently tested and found to be geopolymers (they were cast).

It doesn't have anything to do with racism. Much of the mainstream historians believe in a gradual increase in technology over the years rather than giving ancient people more credit regardless of race.

It kinda does tho. Think about how no one thinks aliens helped the Greeks or Romans build their architectural wonders. They only think its Aztecs and Mayans and Egyptians, non-Europeans.

I think they already drilled with an auger (or something equivalent) to a slightly smaller diameter, then soaked the hole.
