it's white people (and especially white men.)

There are people alive today with Neanderthal DNA, and people alive today with Denisovan DNA. But, essentially, H. Sapiens eliminated those other too. Why? In my opinion, because we were the most violent.

Neanderthal simply means the Neander valley. The Neander is in Germany. Denisovans were in Asia.

But I really doubt anyone is genetically disposed to violence. Culturally is a different thing - but again, that would point straight to white men.
