So this is like...what? 'Divide and Conquer' is it?
Seriously, I've had it up to here with identity group politics.
Have we learned nothing in 100,000 years people?

We tend to think of Neanderthals as one species of cavemen-like creatures, but now scientists say there were actually at least three different subgroups of Neanderthals.
Using computer simulations to analyze DNA sequence fragments from 12 Neanderthal fossils, researchers found that the species can be separated into three, or maybe four, distinct genetic groups.

Barney Frank, Christopher Dodd, and Joe Biden (hard to pick just 3 isn’t it?)
They were supgroups...or they had different color hair.

Indeterminate as they were unable to extract any DNA from those fossils.
I’m guessing that the two minority subgroups joined forces, seized control and taxed the majority into submission. When the producers were taxed into submission all three groups proceeded to starve to death.
LOL!!! Beat me to it, I was going to make a comment along the same lines!!!
It's pretty easy to see why he never passed on his genes. He looks "a bit light in the rabbit-skin leggings".
This looks like an opportunity to say, “That’s racist!”
Not nothing but not much.
Congressmen, Senators, and who else? ;-P

That one was the Chairman of the Neanderthal House Financial Services Committee in the Neanderthal Congress.
He and his homosexual lover Grog, who worked at a quasi-government housing entity, pushed for a scheme to provide free caves to freeloader Neanderthals. That marked the beginning of the end for Neanderthal society.
The Neandertal EnigmaFrayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127]
