When the remains of Neanderthals were first discovered, European anthropologists claimed that Neanderthals looked like Australian Aborigines & were their direct ancestors. After dna proved that Neanderthals were more related to Europeans than to Aborigines, the same anthropologists all switched to “Neanderthals didn’t look that much different from modern humans, they also had big brains & culture”

Los poderosos te celebran mientras aceptás el lugar que te asignaron: el del sufrido, el del pintoresco que pierde con dignidad.
Pero cuando osás rebelarte, ganar y dejar de pedir permiso, te convierten en villano. No les molesta Argentina: les molesta que ya no sea sometida.
I assume many will see my latest @NewYorker column as churlish and grumpy. Fair enough. I am a lifelong Argentina fan, like tens of millions also from the Global South. But this is not the team that stirs my childhood nostalgia

Resumen para extranjeros wokes: en Argentina hubo un tipo de apellido Sarmiento que hace muchos años le puso un delantal blanco a todo lo que pudo sin tener en cuenta ninguna microidentidad y lo convirtió en argentino. Así funciona la cosa sin muchos cambios hasta hoy.
