Lol
Look at Asian brains and how their culture reflects it
Their culture was formed in a way that they saw best due to the way they think
Language plays a role as well
But language is also constructed by the brain
You could just as easily argue that culture forms in response to historical and geographic context.
The overall themes of Asian culture are from their hardware
Such as collectivism
When they look at a picture, they don’t focus on the details
They focus more on the whole
I think their language goes a long way into further trapping them in that, but they have some genetic influences as well
Africa is quite collectivist as well but in different ways
Europeans are as well
🆙 | **abby_ella leveled up!**
I mean, look at all the social programs European governments have designed
I don’t think they are capable of being on the level of Asians as far as being collectivists though
The problem with all of this, though, is why Asians, or Africans, or Europeans would lose that sense of collectivism when they move to America, which is exactly what has happened throughout history. America is far more individualist, so if collectivism has a genetic basis, why wouldn’t we see that in the US?
It’s possible that the journey to America was like a filter. Those that had brains with that individualist spark were more more likely to leave Europe
As in maybe some genes were turned on or off
That’s purely speculation
It might not be the whole story but it could be part of it
Could be, but without evidence there’s no way of arguing that
Well we will likely not have any way of testing it but that doesn’t mean we can’t theorize
I hate coons
Just wanna point that out
