If it's possible to bring back dire wolves and moa birds and hopefully the dodo bird (I want a dog chonky big brakes bird who's guano can grow my marijuana and DMT garden), why not bring back our two other homonin cousins the neanderthals and denisovans? If they can be brought back from extinction could it be possible they could have a the brain capacity like homo sapiens and read and write and even get high off weed and psychedelics? Why wouldn't you want to get fucked up with an ancient hominin cousin of ours?

yes, but you would have retards argue that it isn't a real neanderthal, since they just GMOed a normal sapiens by switching out genes and its not exactly he same and the methylation patterns and non coding DNA are all wrong.
also you would never be allowed to do this work unless you sink a couple hundred million to build a secret lab in china or something like that.
neanderthals also had bigger brains than sapiens, so they could very well be smarter.

There are indications they brought abstract thinking to homo sapiens by the hybridization.

We already do have Neanderthal and Denisovan DNA in us humans currently. They wouldn't be very different from us; they'd actually be really close. The only problem I have with bringing back other humans is morally, is that really a good idea? It feels kind of weird. We don't really have any reason for it.

What indications? Neandertals had less developed frontal lobes, and recent work suggests they possessed inferior neurogenesis.

>What indications?
I read it on BBC, which still has a few articles on it:
https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-43115488
Essentially, abstract cave art was found in Gibraltar from a time when it was inhabited by Neanderthals. So it was suggested they had this first.
At that point, scientists had to find Neanderthal genes in Africa, lest it would be racist, for up to then it was fine claiming that Neanderthals were stupid brutes and that only non-Africans were soiled by Neanderthal genes.
And because if this, I wonder if the "modern humans" in the Science article you link to relate to only non-Africans. For at this point, things quickly get sensitive and political correctness will cloud the issue.
