What a strange wya of fear mongering.
I the end, you can only have one life path. Choosing to do something always implies choosing to not do other things.
So it’s an illusion to think that all those green paths are possible. Only one of them is possible.
Reborn as a Chinese pheasant girl just in time to comprehend that the Mongols riding to your village aren’t nice.
Determinism be like: You are safely traveling along THE ONLY WAY.
It makes absolutely no difference if you think about it. It’s not like choices are made for you even if the universe is determindric. If the world is or isn’t deterministic it’s not like anything would meaningfully be different - things would still be unpredictable to us. In an indeterministic universe randomness would play a part in outcomes, but that’s worthless to us. This meme is about choices anyways, randomness or determinism doesn’t matter in the end.
First of all is determinism not proven and may be/get disproven by quantum mechanics.
Second of all it also validates your suffering because it’s seen as a determined thing to happen so that may give you some solice.

Ah, nice! Almost didn’t have my existential crisis today, thanks for the reminder.
remain ignorant
Good for you that you didn’t take that lower path cut short.
Who’s to say any of those other paths would have been any better or worse than your current path?
