• They will build statues to the good Doctor

    Eventually the mainstream will catch up to reality.

    The political schemes, the social programs, the
    perversion of science in the name of some
    imaginary "Greater Good" that for some reason
    or another can only exist within an ocean of
    lies... it'll become too much. Academics will
    retire and unless they have a child to protect,
    most will eventually want to clear the air.

    You know, the academics with a conscience.

    They're probably resentful of having to be
    compromised their entire careers, forced to
    shit on the things that are important to them, so
    once they're retired they're going to start loading
    the canons with grape shot and taking aim that
    the self appointed elite who own
    paleoanthropology.

    It's going to happen.

    Eventually reason will win over politics and science
    will prevail.

    The good Doctor will be recognized as the great
    pioneer that he is...

    The way I see it is that culture -- society, religion,
    the government, the owners of academia -- define
    these parameters within which all thinking much
    take place. Such as...

    Humans evolved from Apes. The LCA looked like a
    Chimp.

    Our evolution took place in Africa.

    Various stupid models for the origins of bipedalism,
    most popular of which is the savanna nonsense.

    Dating! For at least a generation we were ordered
    to frame everything within the context of a 6 million
    year old LCA.

    These things are parameters... fences... WALLS within
    which all your thinking must take place. And where the
    world owes the good Doctor a great debt is NOT in
    any specific detail of his Aquatic Ape model, but in the
    destruction of those parameters.

    Instead of asking you to judge an idea by how well it
    conforms to mandated parameters, he asks you to
    judge things on the basis of the evidence.

    One of the great ways he did this recently was in his
    WhatTalk, where he pointed out that the bipedal traits
    we are ordered to associate with Homo -- those darn
    parameters that cage in your thinking -- actually pre
    date the genus Homo. They don't signify Homo at all,
    thus can't suggest an ancestor.

    I likened this to how many people insisted on seeing
    "Bird like traits" in dinosaurs, when the dinosaurs
    and the traits pre dated the birds by a very long time...

    It's this change in thinking that the good Doctor
    celebrates with his every post. THAT is what he will
    forever be remembered for, and celebrated. You
    don't have to agree with specifics, only the process
    for arriving at his conclusions.

    :-D "eventually" perhaps, yes, JTEM.
    When (after a few yers of trying to get it published) I had written my first scient.article (1985), I thought: now "everybody" will see "soon" that the "aq.ape theory" is correct.
    But nothing happened, except: I received a letter from Elaine. Elaine Morgan. :-) Over the years, we must have exchanged a few 100s of letters & later even more emails...
    When I had written my 2nd article, I thought the same, but again: +-nothing happened...
    Over the years, I wrote 2 books (in Dutch) & some 40 articles (most co-authored),
    I think (hope) times are changing, but still there are more idiots who keep rejecting waterside hypotheses & keep running after their antelopes, than there are serious scientists who agree that we had semi-aquatic ancestors:
    scientifically there's 0 doubt: most likely, something like H.erectus or their immediate ancestors were our most-aquatic ancestors:
    early-Pleistocene H.erectus fossilized in a river delta amid shellfish (e.g. Mojokerto), had pachy-osteo-sclerotic bones, a brain size twice that of apes-apiths (cf DHA in seafoods), flat feet & short toes (maladaptive to running), a projecting nose (
    necessary for hunting antelopes?? :-D), a very wide body, colonized islands far oversea etc.etc., yet there are still imbeciles who sincerly believe they "endurance-ran" antelopes... :-DDD

    What I have done is adding many details: we now know that early-Miocene Hominoidea were already "bipedal" (vertical waders-climbers in swamp-forests), that out-of-Africa is nonsense, that the endurance-running idiocy is even bigger nonsense, and that "
    archaic" Homo frequently dived for shallow-aquatic foods. It's really not difficult what we're saying: the facts are clear:
    - wading-climbing Mio-Pliocene Hominoidea, google “aquarboreal”
    - wading-diving early-Pleistocene Homo, google “pachyosteosclerosis”
    - wading-walking late-Pleistocene Homo, google “gondwanatalks Verhaegen Bonne”

    Given that it's been almost *40* years, it's quite apparent
    that this fringe "science" has been buried by the data
    accumulated since then.

    The evidence was clear, unambiguous: There was interbreeding. The
    so called "Moderns" did in fact interbreed with Neanderthals. But
    the mainstream absolutely-positively REFUSED to accept it, despite
    the unambiguous evidence, until the entire Neanderthal genome
    was sequenced and they could actually point to Neanderthal DNA
    that everyone outside of sub Saharan Africa carried.

    Why are you different? How did you get it right this time? How
    come you missed the screaming obvious reality of interbreeding
    then, but you can see in abject clarity now?

    "Well the exact same mainstream that got it spectacularly wrong
    FOR 100 YEARS on Neanderthals, despite the overwhelming
    evidence, can't be questioned EVER."

    DHA, all by itself, out weighs any evidence you want to pretend
    exists in your favor.

    Good God, at this point you people are so devoid of ethics that
    you're pretend that "Fossil Evidence" pushes back the dating of
    the LCA...

    Look at the Piltdown Man adherents. Stare at the lysenkoism
    believers. That's you. That is what the future holds for you. That
    is going to be your reward for lapping at the crotch of the
    status quo.

    Where did the DHA come from?

    We're dependent upon it. We evolved under conditions in which
    it was plentiful. We all know this. So where in that super dogmatic,
    anti science "mind" are you pretending that the DHA came from?

    kudu runner:
    That's called delusion.

    Yes, my boy, I thought self-declared "scientists" were smarter... :-D

    It's really not difficult, even you can understand:

    8 *independent* indications (undeniable, even by kudu runners :-D) that Pleistocene archaic Homo were semi-aquatic:
    1) archaic Homo's atypical tooth wear was caused by "sand and oral processing of marine mollusks" (Towle cs 2022 doi 10.1002/ajpa.24500)
    2) H.erectus s.s. fossilized typically (always?) in coastal sediments, e.g.
    - Mojokerto child: amid barnacles & corals,
    - Trinil: amid Pseudodon, Elongaria,
    - Sangiran-17: "brackish marsh near the coast"
    3) Stephen Munro discovered sea-shell engravings made by H.erectus (Joordens cs 2015 Nature 518:228–231).
    4) ear exostoses (H.erectus & H.neand.) develop after years of cold(er) water irrigation
    5) pachyosteosclerosis is typically & exclusively seen in slow+shallow-diving tetrapods (de Buffrénil cs 2010 J.Mamm.Evol.17:101–120),
    e.g. erectus' parietal bone is twice (2x) as thick as in gorillas
    6) brain enlargement++ (e.g. Odontocetes, Pinnipedia) is facilitated by sea-food, e.g. docosahexaenoic acid DHA in shellfish etc.
    7) Homo’s stone tool use & manual dexterity is typical for molluscivores: sea-otters etc.
    8) Pleistocene Homo even colonized overseas islands (Flores & later even Luzon), google “coastal dispersal Pleistocene Homo”.

    *Each* of these already proves that archaic Homo was (semi)aquatic8

    *Nobody* has ever *tried* to contradict this:
    the idiotic antelopes runners are obviously miserably incapable of providing us 1 single little counter-argument... :-DDD

    Of course: they have to run after kudus...

    Needless to say: the rudiments of Homo's (probably most early-Pleist.) is still seen in humans: fat belly, naked skin, short toes, flat feet, big brain, voluntary breathing, etc.etc.
    The kudu runners are the most imbecilic self-declared "scientists" you can imagine... they have 0.00000 arguments.
