Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

"Hualongdong region of China", CNN?

Are you sure about that?

Because I'm pretty Sure we are talking about the Hualong Cave (in Chinese "Hualong dong") in the Anhui province. Which is where HLD6 was found.

Granted, the paper itself writes the location confusingly, but it doesnt take a long time to research the finding site.

Hua long dong 6 is a hell of a name tho

Whoa, there... don't you dare assume CNN would consider doing any research. Not cool, man.

That title... "Unlike any early human seen before" is like when car companies blast that they've rethought and redesigned everything about a car. But, at the end of the day, it's yet another car with four wheels, four doors the usual drive train, etc...

Like the Denisovans, HLD 6 does not appear to have a chin.

Got a primitive little monkey chin, do ya?
