OK. I'm going to categorise our logic thought processes or mechanisms into 3 groups. Realistic, woo and philosophical.
We're all capable of accepting/acknowledging them ...Some like some more than others. Some are forced to adopt others due to belief in another.
If there is an objective true self, it is the one we are born with. From that second, we start becoming the product of nurture.
This automatically destroys any impartial position which the true self could potentially have become.
The 3 groups of thought (above) that we gravitate to is entirely the result of nurture and experience.
Our DNA does limit our potential to a degree, but not necessarily.
sorry if I'm on the wrong track, haven't seen the vid yet... just my 2c
