We are all homo sapiens. In the nature v nurture dichotomy, the emergent bulk properties across generations are clearly a result of the latter. If we see specific behaviors that ultimately prove to be problematic, we need to think deeply and compassionately about what the causes could have been and, to the extent that we are going to engineer society, attempt to account for those moving forward.
- Nasrudith 7y agoWhile true about all being homo sapiens and shaped there is still fundamentally rightful to blame from causality. Even with the nature and nurture given the nature of time the past generations have an impact on the future generations. With power comes responsibility - blame should be proportionate to power to have actually prevented something. It is far more reasonable to blame a doctor for not even trying to save a wounded stranger than a blind quadriplegic because the latter wouldn't have been able to do anything more than give a redundant call for help. Blame is also fundamental to systems.
