- dalbasal 5y agoA thought just occurred to me. In ancient civilizations as in Cuba, there's a state (church, pharaoh, etc) monopoly on marketing. All the power now dispersed to sneaker sellers, political lobbyists and SEOs was concentrated. "Everyone should believe, want or object to X" was an achievable goal. That may be what made pyramids possible. Cornerstone of civilization.
