The conception of “free will” I mean is any that assumes if time was rewinded a different choice had the possibility of being made. @EelBolshevikism@hexbear.net
What, but, that would include what is materially a thing, because as far as we know things like half-lives are truly random, so those could subtly influence material conditions to the point that people make different decisions if time was rewound
That sounds highly unlikely, but maybe possible? It doesn’t validate free will, but it’s hard to come up with a good definition. The problem is secular “free will” believers will object to it being like a soul, which is the easiest way to describe it.

I personally feel like both free will and determinism are nonsensical concepts and this whole conversation has seriously vindicated me in that regard
That’s fair
