Getting back to the story which I linked earlier (downstairs), about the “Red Deer people” discovery in China… as an example of my claim that this type of anthropological findings will be used to tap into latent (or perhaps not so latent) racism, I offer up this link to the CBS news online site version of the story:

Mysterious Chinese fossils may be new human species

And the most recent comment is:

“prominent brow ridges, thick skull bones, flat upper faces with a broad nose, jutting jaws that lack a humanlike chin, brains moderate in size by ice age human standards, large molar teeth, and primitively short parietal lobes”

In other words, black Africans.

I assume the CBS site moderators will remove the comment once they get to work… but this is just one of many, many examples of how loaded research into human origins is, and one of the many pitfalls into which our unbridled society will fall.

Oh, and the Infowars version of this story has a comment section which has devolved into full on creationism exposition. It ought to be expected I guess, that Alex Jones’ audience is basically the same as Joe Farah’s.
