Acc/to another informed source of #AFP, "hate & conspiracy messages" were blamed on the French researcher by #US authorities. An #FBI investigation into him was announced, for which "the charges have been abandoned," continues this source.

This measure was apparently taken by the American authorities because the researcher's phone contained exchanges w/colleagues & friends in which he expressed a personal #opinion on the #Trump admin's research policy,” said #France’s Minister of Higher #Education & #Research.

more like neSLANDERthals because this is total slander.

I agree with the comic and just don't think it's fair to use the term "neanderthal" to mean brute when we don't know what they were like really.
@futurebird @Nonilex Honestly, there's a lot of evidence that they were actually not just intelligent, but taught us a lot of things like better toolmaking and such.
In other words, they pretty much were the research department that is being killed off by the new people in charge misrepresenting them.
@Nonilex the Neanderthales had bigger brain volume.. in present days they might have an advantage
