    People are often weird about the intersection of genetics and psychology generally. When I was in HS a kid tried to tell me that intelligence wasn’t heritable because genetics didn’t play a role. When I pointed out that people with genetically-linked intellectual disabilities exist, they said that it was different. Apparently they didn’t understand that disabilities are a result of (among other things) genetic variations and not the other way around.
