I always took it to mean each is just another brick in the communal wall, like human individuals are just peices of the Communist machine.
That's exactly what the tower of babel is.
Made of bricks and mud. Its all allegory.
Its a weak system that inevitably collapses the bigger it gets.
Every person is a brick in the wall of the tower, helping to support everything above it, until it can't sustain it anymore.
