There’s a reason why fringe parties tend to remain on the fringe.

The archaeological consensus remains that Neanderthals went extinct because they could not survive the last ice age.
From your article:
Pre- and early Neanderthals seem to have continuously occupied only France, Spain, and Italy, although some appear to have moved out of this “core-area” to form temporary settlements eastward (without leaving Europe). Nonetheless, southwestern France has the highest density of sites for pre- and classic Neanderthals.
Ice wasn’t everywhere.
The last ice age of 40,000 years ago covered everywhere Neanderthals lived, and no Neanderthals survived it. The last Neanderthals went extinct from exposure in a cave in Spain, which was affected by the last ice age.
No sewing equipment has ever been found with Neanderthals. They died of exposure in spite of being more cold-hardy than homo-sapiens, who by the last ice age had mastered sewing tighter-fitting clothing with leather and fur. That’s why we survived the last ice age, and the Neanderthals did not.
Everything invented before the copper age is considered to be part of the stone age.
- Stone age: ends 5000 BCE
- Copper age: 3500 - 2300 BCE
- Bronze age: (tin+copper alloy): begins 3300 BCE
- Iron age: begins 1200 BCE
Neanderthals went extinct because they couldn’t survive the ice age of 40,000 years ago. Unlike homo-sapiens, they never learned to sew, so they couldn’t make tighter-fitting fur clothing to keep warm. They mostly wore loose-fitting animal hides.
According to Google, what we call The Stone Age also included the use of wood products. They were often used together.
Wheels were useless anyway until the invention of the axle, around 3500 BCE.
How is any of this right wing?
Plenty of trans people are right-wing Trumpers. Some of them are quite popular with plenty of videos on YouTube.
Cockroaches eat bedbugs too. But I don’t think spiders or roaches can eat them fast enough to outdo their reproductive rate during an infestation.
