Alt Hype is an amazing autist.

And Germs and Steel has some good history in it, but it's hilarious tainted by the political bias of Diamond.

Determinism doesn't exist anywhere so it can not exist in an environment either.

You are, however, influenced by your environment, it exists before you are even born, its merely a materialistic perspective without determining everything. How old are you? 12?

Honestly you can skip it, read Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed and Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty instead.

I agree that environment matters a lot but not to the point of thinking genetics don’t matter at all. Not to mention your genetics have a role to play in determining that experience.

Environmental pressures determine your genetics over long periods of time. They both go hand-in-hand. Modern academia is so black and white it amazes me.

Humans have the ability to change their environment too, and I think a lot of people ignore this fact.
