His decision making options are restricted

What is free will if not decision making? I understand people who say free will doesn’t exist as saying we don’t actually make decisions, it’s all decided for us by some other factor.

The ability to predict things does not negate free will. If I put a ball on a hill it will roll down because it has no free will, and I am able to predict that. If I offer you $20 or a punch in the face I am able to predict that you will choose the $20, but that doesn’t mean free will doesn’t exist because you could choose the punch in the face.

I am 100% sure any ball will roll down the hill 100% of the time. I am only 99.99% sure that any person will choose the $20 100% of the time, because humans have more free will than a ball.

If windows is on a separate drive it’s hard for it to actually ruin the Linux install. The fix was to use a USB boot drive to launch Linux and fix the boot manager.

Someone changing their opinion from 5 years ago? What, was she presented with new information or something?

And a Vice-presidential candidate doing what the presidential candidate tells them to do? So I guess when Kamala is in office Walz is just going to do what he’s told? Hardly the role of a vice-president!

Can your free will be restricted in any way? Someone in prison has less agency than you or I, if that means his free will is restricted then we have more free will than he does. Therefore it exists.

See, people just assume that if you don’t agree with the general ideology, you are an enemy.

You’re the one that came in with “Democrats bad”. This was about “of course presidents shouldn’t have immunity FFS.”

You don’t even recognize what you’re doing. You don’t understand the situation or your opposition at all.

Okay, so tell me what I’m doing. Explains the situation. This is a teachable moment, and telling me “You don’t know understand” does help me to actually understand.

Spreading awareness doesn’t do a thing when the people at the top don’t care what anyone but billionaires like Musk think.

How do you get non-republicans in positions to fix these things without spreading awareness of what Republicans are allowing?

No, but it is an effective way. Other ways should be done as well.

Sure, but thing’s haven’t gotten worse as a result of what TST is doing, and they aren’t being normalized because of what CAH is doing. You’re right, it’s fucked up. You know it’s fucked up, I know it’s fucked up, CAH keeps saying “it’s fucked up that we can do this.” The point is to keep telling people “This is fucked up”. Not responding to what Musk is doing would normalize it more than shining a light on it.

When The Satanic Temple starts putting Baphomet statues in government buildings or their clergy members in schools it does not normalize the process. It’s them saying “these are the rules? Then we’re going to push them as far as they go to show you how absurd that is and get you to change the rules.”
