Neanderthal gene variant lowers muscle enzyme activity in modern humans (See Europeans)

[O.Red]

No they were brute humanoids but wasn't as capable as us Humans. They need to study the aggression and racism which is tied to their development as well.

How much is there to really study?

Racism is about scarcity

yes, they have been implying it because we have been in a time when it has been out of fashion to be explicit about it. using genetic science, they are trying to return to a time where they can be explicit about it which they can use as a justification to cut legacy civil rights programs citing black people being unqualified because our intellectual capacity is inherently lower.

that's why we have to reject any attempt to make us out as having some sort of advantage physically/biologically in the public domain because they can hit back and say if we accepted the data that concludes our physical superority, why can't we accept the data that concludes their intellectual superiority? And we can't cite racism when we willingly accepted the data that solely benefits our own race.

I think the same way, we should reject racial stereotypes because of course if Black people say we're physically superior, then white people will flip it and say but they're smarter

and white racists will do anything in their power to justify Black people as inferior second class citizens

edit...white people are scared to death of Black people's intelligence, creativity, and inventiveness, because Black people are the originators of civilization

I dont get it. Werent neanderthals like… monsters for real?

Ive seen so many doc basically sayint they were far more athletic than humans and could kill them easily with their bare hands and hunted bear and lion dolo

They were heavily muscled which meant they had to eat ALL THE TIME.

I've heard they needed anywhere from 3k to 5k calories per day.

Africans were better runners, had longer limbs, were better at making tools ("nikka rigging") and were better at working as a team to take down animals.

Neanderthals also had a weird hyoid bone so people think they had much higher pitched voices than we do.

I'm no saying anything about it...

That's where today's inexplicable beef Black are clueless about comes from..

be careful with stuff like this. there's already a movement from the far right to re-establish eugenics so if y'all are comfortable accepting and welcoming the notion that blacks are somehow genetically superior, which to me is a honeypot, don't blow a gasket when they come back with "yes, but we're intellectually superior".

they'll throw us a bone to get what they really want, a monopoly on all positions of wealth and power which they're already moving on striking down dei and affirmative action, softly telling the world that black people are not qualified to be in these positions. the entry to these positions being intellectual rigor not physical.

it's best for us to quietly acknowledge this, because on average, it may be true, but to push back on this in the public domain because it could be used as a weapon against us.

Luckily there is no biological evidence working in their favor of outright intellectual superiority genetically. And if such a thing existed, there isnt enough variance or disparity in our "intelligence" to manifest in anything tangible anyway. These morons act as if theres a massive gap or something with glaring differences, only because they dont understand sociology, class, or context regarding historical systemic opression.

Or...they dont want to understand that, because like simpletons, they want to perpetuate racial superiorty in intellect because we make them insecure about our obvious pecieved advantages in athleticism and sex.

 

[AngryBaby]

white people always imply that Black people are physically superior, but simply white people are mentally superior

this is an old racist stereotype

That percieved physical superiority bothers them. Because its far more obvious and traceable than this "cognitive superiority" theory they have about themselves. Notice we dont really have to entertain or create these theories about our athleticism or something. We just do our thing.

Trust that they are more bothered, and thus have to create these ideas. They NEED a reason for that obvious gap in performance, because in their minds; if we are equal cognitively AND have those obvious advantages...then what does that mean?

But again...they are more bothered. Why is it that one group seemingly needs to perpetuate these ideas?

"Carrying a broken AMPD1 enzyme, the likelihood of reaching athletic performance is reduced by half," Macak adds.



That pure African blood.

[Nkrumah Was Right]

I thought they said Neanderthals were more dense and strong than modern humans

They were more robust with denser bones but slower and had less stamina than Africans (humans)
