Note here that the insistence on free will is admitted as being due to an intuition that being fatalist will cause depression.
That's the thing throughout this thread, and the other one
>I refuse to believe that determinism is possible because it sounds scary and I just know I'll get depressed
Which is all you need.
There's no reason or argument here, just feelings and suppositions.
OP is scared he isn't "in control" and so plugs up his ears to reason and facts and goes LALALALA YOU CAN'T TELL ME. I CAN'T HEAR YOU LALALA

Fatalism is the only emancipatory position.
Read Frank Ruda.
I've been a fatalist for decades and have never been remotely depressed.

That other poster is ofc correct. We have more in common with Dust Devils than the Aristotelian concept of a free actor.
