I’ll say this again.
Anyone down voting a post here is a jerk.
Doesn’t matter if it’s a repost, if you don’t like the article, disagree with the article, this C/ is 100% people taking extra effort to give other people access to something.
They only time a down vote here would be acceptable is if it wasn’t actually a “gift”, as in the link was paywalled, or maybe if it wasn’t from the Times (seeing as how the name of the C/ is specifically for that organization, but you still shouldn’t downvote if it’s a similar thing).
Votes are kinda bad overall, but since they’re in place as a part of lemmy you never, ever down vote something done in good faith that provides access to information you would otherwise have to pay to access. It’s just a dick move.

The mystery is “why this gesture” and not “are they communicating”
The hypothesis that’s being put forward is this:

Sounds like humans. Not sure why scientists would think all apes would use the same language. Even giving a middle finger isn’t a universal gesture across our species.

Oh okay, that makes more sense. I suppose I should have read the article, but I think they should have let you write the title.
