    Yes, of course that would be the case.

    We come pre-built with a TON of instinct that initially drives our behaviour but we can override those with some information and effort by our big brains.

      Perhaps I should have said it differently. After decades of being a vegetarian, I went plant-based for the environment, then fairly quickly went vegan, because I started caring about animals a lot more.

      I don’t know if that’s just as obvious, but I was definitely surprised.
