Okay that’s hyperbole if I’ve ever heard it. I think most people view, for example, Neanderthal genes in the human gene pool, as an interesting factoid, and nothing more.


Right but Neanderthals are just the start. Stark contrasts between different human populations can be partly explained by hybrid mixing 50,000+ years ago


It’s interesting to consider that autism and neurodivergent traits are linked to having Neanderthal DNA.


Also linked to living close to a freeway.
