It's "fixable" at the surface level of course, and this is expected of anyone in a basic functioning society.
In another thread about how it's legal in Germany to try to break out of jail because it's human nature (literally this is the legal justification!), I made the point that it's also sometimes human/animal instinct to murder, rape or steal. We are expected to overcome these instincts in daily life, and so IMO it should be no different in jail...
As "normal" humans we will always have these animal natures talking to us. It's nothing to be "fixed", it's something to be accepted, understood and managed. They called this being a Gentleman (for men) and being a Lady (for women), given the values of the time.
- hosh 7y agoNo, I mean it is fixable at a deeper level, and not just through things like behavioral conditioning. The techniques may not be wildly available or accessible. To give you some examples -- - Changes taking place with use of psychedelics, including traditional shamanic methods - Use of acupuncture on something called the "extraordinary meridians". Similarly, internal alchemy methods that messes with that - A phenomena called Kundalini (which describes a large spectrum of psycho-spritual changes). - Breakthroughs from certain kinds of realizations on the nature of being, such as those resulting from Zen or Vipassana Animal instincts are just that. They are more like firmware. Difficult to change if you don't know how, but very much possible if you are a hacker -- have the will, knowledge, and skill to do so.
