I don't actually agree with the stuff that followed and as discussed earlier I am racist
I really wish we could decouple present day racial politics from thinking about human origins
just so stories are sloppy thinking
i'm interested to hear why you think the african peoples of the entire continent failed to even reach south american levels of technology, despite allegedly existing for longer. i'm happy that you disagree, but you could at least tell me what you disagree with, and how my thinking is sloppy or a 'story'. the african continent as a whole did not industrialize until it was colonized. asia and europe had both reached large-scale cities while africans still had tribal conflict between villages, and most large groups lacked written language of any kind.
this is in contrast to south americans who had developed large cities (for their populations) and large-scale buildings, as well as written language and even proper science.
also, the 'two paths' thing is settled at this point.
they even go into detail about how there have been multiple mixing events. it's convergent evolution through interbreeding.
they literally talk here about how the 80% genome likely comes from europe as well, since the same source is later the one with 2% neanderthal DNA, which is european.
here, they give detail to how it's likely that the DNA from the 80% group was involved in removing harmful and low quality genetic mutations from the 20% group. even british science is slowly catching up with this idea.
but maybe it should go on my profile or something, i don't think this is related to US politics. sorry for the derail.
I did not because that is not what happened, the movie has him turn into dust when his finger gets cut off, but this is not the case in the books, Sauron is very much physically embodied after that event, but is so weakened he squats in various locations for decades, but make no mistake, in the Tower of Angband he sits in his physical body until the ring is destroyed, even this doesn't kill him, but shatters his body and power and he remains a sort of ghostly presence for all time.
he was in barad-dur, not angband. that was morgoth's fortress.

Holy fuck LOL "We suggest you may want to consider relocating, changing your contact information..."
this is also the title of a huge grift immediately after charlie was killed. this is so fucking pathetic from them. it reminds me a lot of the time that one queer was pretending that their neighbors hated their gay decorations, they got like 10 grand in donations and tons of handmade gay art shit, and it turned out they had been making all the threats to themselves.
