Controversial General Political Discussion

[Bisoromi Bear]

i heard something similar about twins before but not in the context of genes ,quite intresting topic tbh

Interesting, I wanna know mo

Look up documentaries about twin research, it's super interesting. I watched them years ago and some were shown in biology class so I can't provide links unfortunately

Warrior Gene?
what‘s that about?

If I remember correctly this gene can make people more prone to violence and joining a gang etc. I remember watching a documentary where they tested the DNA of gang members in a south American country I think. Ofc this gene alone doesn't make you a criminal and not all criminals have this gene, complex factors again here.

My grandpa always said that the genes are strong for 7 generations and can shape the personality
Why 7? I don’t know to be honest

Because 7 is a magical number from the Bible. Numerology should always be taken with a grain of salt. East Asian numerology is different , natives American too etc...

It's not because it's wrote "socialiste" that it is really socialist. You know nothing about French political situation, it's funny to see.

almost like im not french and dont invest much time into their poltics

Read the whole article. It addresses the controversy and complexity. The gene alone doesn't turn one into a criminal

What's the topic now boys?

Really interesting ,the title and the part where they question if there is a possibility they should do something about it ,is a kinda scary thought in theory .

Yup and that's why I think maybe it's better we don't research too much and don't find out about all the different gene variations and what they do because it can and will be abused by eugenicists and racists.

 

[BleakAsh]

wuat ?

Lemme clarify

You mean society and its primary beliefs around which the families and communities are constructed right?

Don't be too mean to that poor NPC; it's just saying what it is programmed for

The term "Designer Baby‘s" came right to my mind when i read this specific part of the article ,which was a hot debated topic a couple of years ago.

The term "Designer Baby‘s" came right to my mind when i read this specific part of the article ,which was a hot debated topic a couple of years ago.

For me this part of the article is most interesting:

Furthermore, this saga highlights the problems inherent in genetic explanations for multifaceted social behaviors such as crime or violence. While MAOA may indeed have an influence on violent crime, this is clearly mediated through innumerable other genetic and environmental influences — a point that can be illustrated by yet another irony of the Maori warrior gene story. According to the genetic data on which the study was based, the highest frequencies of MAOA were not actually found among Maori but rather among Chinese, a group not typically associated with violent crime. If this is indeed the case, it is plausible that the risk-taking traits linked to MAOA may be advantageous in the commercial settings stereotypically associated with Chinese in New Zealand; in the economically-deprived environments faced by many Maori, however, these self-same characteristics may instead be expressed in drug-taking, alcohol abuse or criminal behavior. In other words, given a different social environment, the warrior gene might just as readily be described as an entrepreneurial gene.

Morality is just a social construct guys ,
Simply choose violence over anything.

Listen,physiology is a thing.There are thousand of things that can influence our behavior,but doesn't mean we are slaves to it. Consciousness is what separates humans from animals.Denying your free will is the same as calling one an animal.

Yes
