Read the rules! No spoilers in this community! Most of us are living in 2023 or 2024 and don't want to know what happens later yet

They can and they did. We know it since a decade. Modern people have about 2% neanderthal DNA in us

It was after. That also radicalized him towards class solidarity and socialism. He empathized with the suppressed indigenous peoples there and in the next step with the suppressed in his own country. He went to meet them and live with them as documented in his book The Road to Wigan Pier. Then, as a vaguely socialist, he went to Spain as documented in Homage to Catalonia. I read both books btw

He was radicalized against the Soviets because they did not support the socialist revolution led by anarchosyndicalists. Instead Stalin supported the liberals because he said it wasn't time for revolution yet which is BS since Barcelona and big parts of Catalonia did well under anarchists. An anarchist revolution would undermine the "ends justify the means" and "there is no other way to socialism than ours" rhetoric of the bolsheviks.

TLDR He was an anti-Soviet agitator but from the left

How does it render for you? Because in my app, both look the same. Only with a space after #, it is huge and bold:
