There was a thread a week or so ago that claimed we all have some neanderthal genes.

We/They didn’t so much push them/us out as intermarried with them over time to the point where Neanderthals were no longer a distinctive type of human.

Near as I can tell, Neanderthals died out because they were too ugly to f##k, and beer hadn’t been invented.

The so-called experts don’t even agree on the extent to which Anglo-Saxons displaced or “ethically cleansed” the indigenous population of Britain. I’ve read claims that H. sapiens sapiens interbred with H. sapiens neaderthalensis, and vice versa. We will probably never know the truth.

Trying to make a case that the current invasion of Europe is natural, that they should not fight the rapid, negative transformation and obliteration of their culture and people?

Wait, does this mean I’m entitled to reparations from the Homo Sapiens that left Africa?

A shortage of massive prey and the invention of the bow and arrow made extreme physical power obsolete. Even today you can find a small percentage of people who are capable of bench pressing 400-500+ pounds(even before steroids in fact) but these people do not have any measurable competitive advantage over us regular guys who max out at 225-275 lb bench press capabilities.

It seems like every week there is a new theory on that we are apes or something.

"Scientists have long debated what caused the Neanderthals to die off"

Are you sure they are not hiding out in DC?

Latest Theory: Modern man displaced Neanderthals.

Modern man killed all the neanderthals

Modern man adsorbed Neanderthals

Modern man IS Neanderthals (Manderthals?)

Modern man missed Neanderthals

But wait! There's more!

If the Neanderthal were close enough genetically to crossbreed with Homo Sapiens, being outnumbered they would disappear in a few generations.

Compare it to dog breeds. If you take 10 corgis and surround them with 100 dachshunds, in a few generations you will have only dachshunds. Granted some of them will have corgi blood in them, but from that point, the further you go, the more dachshund they are.

Considering what passes for leadership in Europe these days, the Neanderthals were merely hiding
