Then what kind of subversion is unadulterated determinism? It's just as fucking stupid. Genetic heritage gives living things predilections and potential and tendencies. It does not determine behavior, nor does it come anywhere even close to the neighborhood of predicting "good" vs. "bad."

I'm honestly boggled that you and the other guy have managed to wedge yourselves into a head-space where literally all cultivation, all rearing, all education, all training, is worth zero, while chromosomes somehow call all of the shots. It sounds so frankly and obviously stupid. I expect this from subcontinent Indian Brahmins, not white Westerners.

We also have thousands of instances from our elders about overcoming the patterns and hardships of rotten circumstances or an ill-favored birth. "The ancients," whoever they are, covered both ends of this in depth and breadth.

I'm not sure what kind of bonkers I'm dealing with here. Genetic/biological determinism, obviously. Failure to recognize genotype vs. phenotype? Yeah that too. Biological mechanism?

Just a generally fucked-up, uncharitable attitude, is what I say. It's an insult to anyone who ever achieved despite being given shitty odds. This sort of "You'll never rise above" attitude is how we get to Canada's demonic MAID system.
