And some people drop out of medical school in London to go fight for ISIS. People are strange and others are drawn towards ideas others aren't for no fault of their own.

I'm pretty sure supporting ideas you agree with is 100% within the fault of a person

I don't think it's that simple. Why is for example the majority religion in the US Christianity but in the middle east it's Islam? Do people just freely happen to choose the same religion as everyone else around there or is there perhaps outside influences that the individual have no say at?

as I said, environmental factors of one's upbringing are indeed significant influence on an individuals life.

But I do not accept some sort of twisted "nobody is accountable for their beliefs uwu nobody has a choice in what they think or do owo"
