Thanks! Strange isn’t it? But the idiots who have been vomiting up their own racism toward Neandertal have been at it since Virchow. The idea of the mute Neandertal is part of the master-race nonsense that *is* the Replacement model.

5. The NT got out of Africa early, due to higher curiosity/aggression/fearless or was forced out. The HS followed later.
...
9. The "ideal" fine balance of ~97.5% HS and 2.5% NT, mix of DNA was reached. This fine balance (aggression/fight/war vs intelligent life sustainability) created the rapid progress in the modern world visible today. Nearly 100% of all migration occurs still today, from ...to...you figure it out!!
10. If you know a RedHead, you can feel their fierce Nthal genes in their bones.

I think most of what you said is very plausible. Where I disagree is the assumption that the aggressiveness comes from the NT side, rather than the more-recently-out-of-Africa HS side.

Consider the distribution of aggressiveness between African and non-African peoples. Also consider the distribution of intelligence. Could it be possible that the NT were exterminated by the African HS, not because they were less intelligent, but because they were less savage?

Survival in the cold North requires a higher level of cooperation and mutual support among people.

They were probably more socially organized and advanced than some areas of Detroit.

In addition Neanderthals were probably mostly blue eyed and red headed. The so called “ginger” gene found in about 40% of people of that coloration in the British Isles, or is it 40% of all or something like that. That coloration made Vitamin D formation and absorbtion from skin more effective, and thus better formation of female pelvic (birth) structure.

The “Redheads ‘Are Neanderthal’” topic that originally enticed me to FR years ago is gone (it was one of the old-style topics that got purged, I believe as part of the out of court agreement with AP) but there’s plenty more where that came from:
