Good Intentions, Bad Approach
Have you come across the saying "The path to damnation is often paved with noble intentions"? This statement holds true and can help us comprehend why malevolence thrives in the world. Consider the 20th century, recorded as the most violent era in history. Despotic regimes were responsible for the slaughter of around 100 million innocent civilians. Remarkably, these despotic regimes predominantly adhered to communism. What's intriguing is that many of those who supported communism, both within and beyond its borders, believed they were contributing to the greater good. These individuals carried a firm conviction in their good intentions, and many were compassionate souls - loving parents, thoughtful neighbors, and considerate acquaintances.

Unprecedented Human-Like Skull Discovered in China's Ancient Remains
A unique human fossil discovered in China by an international team of scientists stands out due to its dissimilarity with any previously known hominins. Unlike the ancestral lines that led to Neanderthals, Denisovans, or modern humans, this ancient specimen, named HLD 6, has raised the possibility of a previously unrecognized branch on the human family tree. Unearthed in Hualongdong, East Asia, in 2019, the remains consist of a jaw, skull, and leg bones, baffling experts at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) who have been unable to classify them within existing lineages. The facial structure of the hominin bears resemblance to modern humans who diverged from Homo erectus around 750,000 years ago. However, its distinctive feature, the absence of a chin, bears more similarity to the Denisovans, an extinct ancient Asian hominin lineage that diverged from Neanderthals over 400,000 years ago. Through collaboration with researchers from Xi'an Jiaotong University in China, the University of York in the UK, and Spain's National Research Center on Human Evolution, the CAS team suggests the discovery of an entirely new lineage – a hybrid between the ancestral line leading to modern humans and the lineage of other ancient hominins in the region, such as Denisovans. This finding addresses the historical challenge of categorizing Pleistocene hominin fossils found in China, which often defy straightforward classification. Instead of being relegated to intermediate stages on the path to modern humans or considered archaic forms of Homo sapiens or Homo erectus, these fossils could represent a new and distinct lineage.
