The culture breeds the people breeds the culture.

Culture is downstream from genetics.

Not necessarily. If someone with good genetics is born into a shit culture, the culture can epigenetically devolve them.

That would be related to regression to the mean.

It's why niggers will never be worth anything.

In your example, the surrounding culture was produced by bad genetics, and as such serves as an upwards limit in addition to regression to the mean.
