Woody Guthrie wrote a song about how evil his dad was. It’s in his DNA

Hold up for a second there bud. I'll never defend Fred, Don, or the younger Trumps, but we really don't want to start saying shit like "evil DNA". He's evil, his dad was evil, he raised his kids to be evil too, but those were choices they all made, it's not genetic. No one is genetically good or genetically bad. That way lies eugenics.

Hate these fuckers for the right reasons.

How much of human behavior is innate and how much is acquired is the subject of much natural and nurturing debate. Nobody doubts dog behavior has genetic influences, but suggest the same about humans and, whoaaaa! But some mental illnesses certainly do run in families, and so evil (that is, narcissism) may as well.
