The Pyramid Construction and Deconstruction Project

Introducing The Concept

In the ever-evolving landscape of modern industrialist post-modern western society, the Pyramid Construction and Deconstruction (PCD) is poised to emerge as the next big thing. This groundbreaking enterprise offers a unique and transformative solution to the pressing challenges of our time, promising to revolutionize the way we work, love, live, and laugh. In fact, some have started laughing already.

Much of modern work has become devoid of true purpose or value. In a world obsessed with productivity and efficiency, we have lost sight of the intrinsic joy and fulfillment that can be found in piling rocks of various sizes. The PCD industry seeks to reclaim this lost art, providing individuals with a space to engage in repetitive, labor-intensive tasks that have no practical application or end goal. Because even if they don't, it will feel as if doing something as literal tangible visible anachronistic structures are raised to the sky. Saving them from the grueling full-time effort to do mental gymnastics to try to justify the usefulness of their job.

A New Paradigm for Labor

The PCD industry challenges the traditional view of labor as a means to an end. In our enterprise, labor becomes an end in itself, a source of identity and self-worth. By constructing and deconstructing pyramids, employees will gain a deep sense of accomplishment and belonging, regardless of the actual value or impact of their work. A true egalitarian paradise. This new paradigm for labor has the potential to liberate individuals from the existential angst that often accompanies modern employment: because we don't have to focus on providing anything at all, we can focus instead on the important problems that plague today's society and tackling the systematic issues that emerge from the interaction of it's citizens in perfectly natural ways. The enterprise will be filled with positions and departments about integration, diversity, dynamism and various other forms of non-apologetic corporate self-service; transformed from oppressive part of the industrial dehumanizing capitalist apparatus into forms of individualistic liberation from structural constraints. But if that sound too groundbreaking, don't worry. They will remain essentially the same. Such focus will free up time for important things like casual Friday's, birthday committees, planned group vacations, formation, personal days, token protests against whatever is in vogue that month and many more. All without disrupting the progress of work which in the end, will be dismantled anyway. 

When engaging in community wide pyramid building, we will accomplish two things.

First, to avoid the masses of people yearning for agency in their lives to fall into revolution (or pesky existential dread) numbing them with fruitless time consuming constant work that gives the sensation of actual progress. Second, to substitute welfare programs in which individuals feel worthless (or entitled) by being paid to do nothing by repetitive nonsensical work that makes others that actually do meaningful work not feeling like subsidizing laziness or worse, engaging in practical ways of moderate socialism.

If the specific enterprise we are proposing is in some ways new and innovative, such strategies can already be found along the globe in all ways of different economic sectors; finance, advertising, bureaucracy, fashion, art, state agencies, real state and many many more. It's just that on those sectors such pyramid building-esque activities are intertwined with a few actually productive individuals and activities. In that sense, we provide clarity, in a form in which such convolution of productive materialism can be steamlined into beautiful pyramid shape pyramids. And then dismantle them. In a way, proving an opportunity for existing enterprises and states to outsource such accumulation of bullshit unnecessary jobs into a single-purpose activity. Because, let's be honest. We produce dozens of times more and better than our ancestors. AI is everywhere. It's not like we need these people doing actual work, we're just making stuff up at this point. Working in superficial services to then consume different and same superficial services we could do ourselves if we didn't fear to have impact in our own destiny without being coddled, managed and oversocialized by civilization at every step. In that sense, the pyramid is not only a useless building, it's a symbol for freedom and for everything modern culture has accomplished so far. Historically, pyramids were built for very similar reasons. Not only for funerary purposes (that was the excuse) but as a solution to idleness during the seasons in which the Nile was inundated and reasons had to be found to strip the farmers from the fruit of their labor to redistribute it after, until the process got so complicated we became convinced grain came from the golden arcs of the state or the bags of the private equity owner. It's not about dismantling the basic solid structure that makes life easy and production of basic good efficient, but to admit the rest are doing basically nothing and might as well erect some giant triangles instead. 

Additionally, instead of individuals engaging in surrogate activities (like going to the gym, or playing videogames) or resorting to consumerism for identity building their place in the project will gave them both a placebo for function and a personal identity based on their number of application. Tanning and healthy physical labor are a plus, and not only free but cheerfully socially mandatory enforced by those who care about your well-being. A place where we can at last apply the valuable life lessons our fathers and grandfathers gave us about the value of effort and how work (now by law) dignifies man.

The PCD industry is not only socially transformative but also environmentally sustainable. Pyramids are known for their durability and longevity, and by constructing and deconstructing these structures, we will create a lasting legacy for future generations. Deconstructing them will provide the needed catharsis from the grueling work, the materials for the new pyramid, and the vacant lot to be used to construct it. Making the ecological impact of the titanic effort almost zero as the demolition is completed. It will look as if we have done nothing at all, despite having accomplished so much.

A Vision for the Future

As the PCD industry grows and expands, we envision a future where pyramid construction and deconstruction becomes a global phenomenon. Individuals from all walks of life will flock to our enterprises, eager to experience the transformative power of constructing something with their own hands. Governments will recognize the value of the PCD industry, providing subsidies and incentives to encourage its growth. And scholars will study the industry as a model for a new, more fulfilling way of life. Flocks of tourists and cultural connoisseurs will some to see the process, revitalizing the local economy in many ways. The creation of new jobs either inside the process or related to it will also lead to a need for new residential areas, services and transport to the area. Entire families will be around, working in the pyramid in the morning, collecting their checks after lunch and reading poetry in the afternoon. Schools will be constructed, where children will learn the traits and philosophies of pyramid building from the ground up, making them perfect future workers with a job secured for their tenure in whatever area related to pyramid building they choose: from piling up rocks, to piling up rocks a different way. Maybe even decorating them with things nobody will ever see or care about; liberating the full power of their creative expression that way without the classical constraints of meaning and purpose. Cutting edge technology will find a place to be relevant, to find better materials and ways to merge the old with the new. Long gone are the days where new discoveries will see themselves not able to propose clear impacts on anything in particular and having to justify themselves as vague future ground research to be potentially used in medicine. Instead everything will have a sole, unified and clear purpose: to build bigger, taller, better, more efficient pyramids. We strongly and humbly believe that such centralization of purpose inside a common structure of dependencies will free rather than enslave them, simplifying existence itself and giving them something to strive for and bring meaning to their lives once more. 

Wherever the project is built, it will create an strong sense and solve the problem of identity for the location, separating it from the nearly identical towns with barely distinguishable characteristics from one another that permeate the modern western civilization landscape filled with the same franchises and the occasional local church. Our recommendation is to choose an small sized town with a sizable population and cheap land that needs a way to solve the usual rural exodus into gentrified cities and city centers; or even to build a new one in the middle of a barren area to simulate the conditions of the original pyramids being built in the middle of the literal desert. There, instead of wasting development funds in the usual endless unnecessary refurbishing of plazas and streets (or boring museums) instead of using them for their intended purpose we could focus these funds and energy in the very similar pyramid construction and deconstruction project. Local politicians could inaugurate them to boost their imminent electoral candidature in a big way, and also giving the old population a permanent construction site to watch instead of having them limping in underfunded civic centers waiting for the next thing. 

A cultural and artistic process that's alive and in permanent exposition once you have taken the pyramid pill.

Recruitment process would be in a draft style, by a random lottery of all the able population in which draftees will have to prove the importance of their actual work beyond reasonable doubt to an standardized VORM (very old rural man) committee or otherwise be sent to the construction complex where to undergo extensive time consuming contradictory and nonsensical safety protocols, introducing them to the mechanics of modern synthetic leather whips and other important training before (if ever) starting actual work. They will be considered volunteers.

The Pyramid Construction and Deconstruction industry is more than just a business venture; it is a movement, a revolution. We invite you to join us in this groundbreaking endeavor and experience the transformative power of triangles. Together, we will create a society where representation and labor are the ultimate goals, and where the pursuit of meaning has no bounds. For that reason, we search investment from private equity firms and government funds for about two billion dollars to get started, with the project subject to be scaled up anywhere and anytime.
