How can people who are limited by their psychopathology have free will?


Let's take clinically diagnosed psychopaths for instance. These are people who are genetically different. Their brain structure differs from the average person. They are incapable of empathy and have minimal activity in the amygdala when exposed to highly emotional content. So how can we say these people have free will? They will never be able to comprehend a person's suffering. They will never be able to look at all possibilities in a situation and select the most "moral" option. They are limited by their genetics. They have no input.


Free will is a farce. It is a myth propagated among individualistic societies in order to comfort the materialistic, insecure, entitled fuck heads who believe the American dream is a real thing. Prove me wrong.
