Determinism and the Individual's Infinite Potential
You hold two ideas in uneasy balance: that there's a deterministic throughline running through everything — canon events, environment, genetics — and that any individual can still become anything they allow themselves to be. It shows up as a quiet, growing anger at people who act 'like animals,' on autopilot, entitled and unchallenged, tempered by your reminder that they're products of culture and circumstance and shouldn't shoulder all the blame. You even concede some people may be 'made' to be followers, and that they should fulfill that role beautifully — while refusing to accept that anyone is truly doomed. You flag the honest limit of this view yourself: you haven't yet been tested by real trauma or poverty, so you don't know if the belief would survive it.
