TRAITS

the problem is that you are arguing the wrong thing

EVERYTHING is determined by genetics

we are only genes

The whole philosophy of determinism is based on genetics.

our genes are what separate us from a banana

EVERY single action you take is a result of your genetics, perosnality, thought procceses.

but what abt the environmental factors that impact your genes

like you can program an ai to deal with dynamic situations

genes can work in the same way

Enviormental factors cant impact your genes lol. It can awaken some genes you didnt know you have

i mean

on a clinical basis your incorrect but on a more philosophical or practical basis your not

Unleas you can somehow edit your genes

that change the way you think about a certain situation

Unless

epigenetics tho

sperm attacks dna

what hte fuck

basically epigenetics

@pompompiggy Its genetics too. Some people are genetically predisposed to be less agreeable and thus more lonely, some predisposed to be more deppressed or positive. If you decide to change the way you think its just your genetics on positivity

so everything is just genes?

Essentially.

literally everything is predisposed and one's traits and how one thinks cant be changed?

we are just big bags of chemicals

Unless you can edit your genes.

why can't societal factors alter the way we act on a certain situation though

raw environment and its impact has nothing to do with specifically one line of inherited genetics. What you're referring to is the evolutionary accumulation of experiences and knowledge that has allowed for a natural reaction to environment to be built in a way that resists negative traits.

you can still force someone

to partake in a negative simulation where the environment causes prmanent damage

to that individuals long term well being

Soceital factors have minor influence. I read in a psychology book Some people who are genetically predisposed to have high self esteem and so despite growing up in a bad enviorment the still lead successfull happy lives. Anxiety, traits like that are genetic aswell you cant develop it. I got anxiety from my mother.

some scientists say that there is a genetic memory and that traumas and other things experienced through life can pass onto your children

no

yep

thats just bogus

lol

I dont believe that

I mean it doesn't exist

nothing else to really say about it

perhaps you're just retarded
