Kind of. Your genetics are more like limitations and influences. Because the real story is that it's all a simulation and they keep tricking you into reincarnating in it. But battling the desires of the flesh is basically impossible at times.

Also, if there's such thing as an "evil species", humans are definitely one of them, and probably the worst in the "real" world.

Most people, as any evopsych professor can tell you, are unprincipled, opportunistic, conformist but completely self-involved, weak and afraid of anyone better than them, lazy, lecherous, irresponsible, hypocritical and keen to project as a way to draw attention away from their own flaws. And an IQ of 100 is rather stupid. By almost any standard, most people are, in fact, bad people. But point that out and all of a sudden you're a supervillain fascist.

An IQ of 9999999999999 is stupid by absolute terms.

IQ doesn't work that way.
