Octopus carries coconut shell for protection, uses it like a vehicle. (Actually quite impressive!)

Africans are in a literal sense more human than everyone else.

lQ test are rigged. Questions like:. A runner is to a marathon, what a sailboat is to a .. ???

I'm sure everyone instantly thought "Regatta", right?!

Well if you did I bet 10:1 that your parents have plenty of money...

Fuck that stupid test. That is a label of a rich man race. It has nothing to do with intelligence, but it's a question on many IQ tests.

They also like to put "Hors d'oeuvre" on the test. Every African child knows that one... /S

Put some African, Aboriginal, or First Nations games/words on the IQ test.
Then let the oligarch's kids take those tests.

Then we'll discuss their IQ results publicly.

I'm not irritated with you Vigte in any way. This is an absurd Injustice. A rigged test.

They paste it on the NYT like it's a legit issue, so we'll intentioned people can discuss it Monday morning at the office... It's a fucking crime of brainwashing.

Comedy to entertain such notions...

Exactly - the test was developed with certain mindsets "in mind" - the Oxford "posh-boy" types.

They work so hard to create something flashy and popular, then destroy it so they can offer an alternative (that changes the very way you think, by virtue of the argument against the first thing and the "refined Socially just" nature of the new answer).

"To create: one must first destroy (and then create again)"

It's like the "smart Jews" mythology.

Nobel Prize winners are connected.

Oscar winners are always corporate media.

It's just another part of their rigged systems.

Additionally, I didn't really have time to fully explain this until now - but the theory of "out of Africa" has some holes in it. Humans almost certainly BEGAN in Africa, but there were some journeys along the way that seem to be conveniently forgotten. The work of Bruce Fenton is quite on point to this effect.

Given recent evidences that place neanderthals and denisovans in a completely separate lineage from us (similar to horses and donkeys, due to the sterile nature of the hybrid offspring) - coupled with "homo antecessor" having "neanderthal only traits", the time line for human divergence from the Neander/Denisov lineage, is AT LEAST 800,000 as of Jan 14 2019.

Part of this has to do with the Wallace line in Oceania and the appearance of Homo Florensis (the hobbit people).

The amount of intelligence it would take to build ships and navigate a sufficient population (likely around 120 (the "genesis number")) is beyond what we attribute to any branch of the homo grouping at that time (at LEAST 1 million years ago).

In essence, the likely theory is that homo erectus departed from Africa (this much is not in debate with science) between 2 and 1 million years ago - spread over ALL of Europe, Asia and Oceania (and potentially even to North America) - and only returned to the "African homeland of legend" during the Toba Catastrophe.

See the migration OUT of Africa, circa 74,000 BCE coincides with Toba, which as many papers point out, would have been the absolute WORST time to leave Africa.

You would literally be walking out of a beautiful lush land, into a volcanic fallout.

The majority of "first modern human" remains are found around Bab-el-Mandeb straight - which would be PRIMARY entrance into Africa.

They weren't leaving 74,000 years ago, they were moving back in. They had been sailing for at least 925,000 years while doing God only knows what else.

This is new to me. I'm familiar with the mt Toba mega volcano, and that's extremely interesting, and legit.

Humans as we understand them may have been around, but it seems likely that the fortunate 5000 or so humans in eastern Africa essentially won the geographic lottery. The lone survivors of extinct city-states, and empires. Everyone else died.

The Neanderthal survived though, which doesn't fit the Toba theory. Even so, it's still the best theory I'm aware of

Homo Florensis (the hobbit people). Are there the orang-pendek (or something) from Indonesia?

There's certainly more to human history than we're likely to ever prove. It's fun to imagine what it must/could have been like.

1,000,000 years ago? IDK. I'd need some compelling evidence.
