What places have the same genetics but put no emphasis on education and learning? And I’d stay away from remarks that third graders could pick the article apart.
Compare North and South Korea.
The North demands that you do not learn anything except the limited amount they allow. Real education is verboten although they do emphasize "re-education". They are a failed society.
The South does put emphasis on education and learning. They are a successful society.
They are perhaps the clearest example of the difference that culture has on people. If genes ruled then the North and the South would be roughly equal. They are not.
