>>11423084>>11423088Actually the determinist mentality is a cope for not putting effort into doing anything out of your comfort zone by disregarding every opportunity to improve because "that's just who I am and I can't change it lol"
>I can't do this, I'm just dumb and it's all just down to genes, I guess I'm just not made for this! >I'm below 6' so I am not capable of acquiring a gf. I might as well not put any effort into talking to women altogether>I'm not the working type - I'm a NEET because of my genes. Some people are made to work, I certainly am not>Because of my body type I am biologically unable to get swole like gigachad, that's why I stopped going to the gym. There's no pointOf course I agree that people can't change their essential set of characteristics, but clinging to genetic determinism mentality to reason things out results in a simplistic defeatist behavior (If you actually want to have a chance at improving at anything you must first convince yourself that you can or at least try to put your mind into it if you're skeptical, otherwise you'll just boycott youself on purpose because of confirmation bias)
Ask any succesful person if they actually believe their success is only due to their genes
>You don't get muh point!!!!!!I'm not arguing determinism at all, read again
