I don't even understand how it's possible for a gorilla to have a higher IQ than a homo sapiens. I get that it's true, but it still seems just impossible to me.

IQ is entirely in the mind. Humans are incredibly good at speech, so it's easy to equate speech with intelligence, and not-speech with not-intelligence.

because a homo sapien was actually very stupid, they just breed really well and knew how to fight/defend.
the neanderthal was the smart geeky human that did not breed very well and thus was out bred or killed in combat. eventually they interbred with the sapien.
whites have around 1-5% neanderthal DNA, while African blacks have 0%.

Wish I had saved the source of that bit. But race is a specialized term for species, the only other word we use like it is breed.
