Evidence for interbreeding with Neanderthals, only Africans pure
Prepare for the whiplash as suddenly Neanderthals become seen as the great and noble innovators of history, lifting primitive man out of the dirt.
I LITERALLY just fucking had this conversation with my parents. Like “oh now that white people are more related to neanderthals, new info is gonna be found that neanderthals were all as smart as einstein!!!!” or some other bullshit.
They already started:

talmabout “Sex with neanderthals made us stronger.”
OH LOOK AT THINGS I AM NOT SURPRISED ABOUT
Actually, I remember watching specials and reading up on the Neanderthals a long time ago and even then they were trying to disprove the myth of the “big dumb Neanderthal”. Although you’re definitely right that they’re probably gonna take it up as a fucking mantra now.
