additionally our free will is controlled by our access to money/lack of privilege.

I found it comforting to not have free will. It might not mean I can claim ownership of my strengths but it also means that my flaws are not personal failures. I am not a mistake & our labels mean 0.

Neuroscience has definately not disproven ultimate free will. What on earth makes you say that?

I feel like you could compare the human experience to driving a car: you are in control of a highly dynamic system that's bound by physical limits and was made to operate within certain bounaries *

yeah it's Seb :
Our decisions might be made by our brains before we’re consciously aware of them — but that process is still us. We don’t manually regulate our heartbeat or hormone levels, yet no one claims those aren't part of who we are. The subconscious is still self.
That said, there's definitely a kind of lottery in what kind of "will" you’re born with. If yours tends toward being thoughtful, resilient, or self-improving — great, but don’t pat yourself on the back too hard. That was dealt to you. And if your will pushes you toward self-sabotage or despair, don’t beat yourself up. That wasn’t really a choice either.
Yes, people can change. But only if they’re wired in a way that allows for change to begin with. Telling someone they “just need to try harder” ignores the fact that trying is itself a trait, not a button you can press.

Free will doesn’t even make much sense. Everything you experience has already happened, nanoseconds before your brain interprets the stimuli (whether it be light, sound, etc).

You imagine free will beyond the physical world, that is impossible, people have free will to combine, and people can choose what to combine.

i respectfully disagree. I could choose to lay in bed all day and do nothing. I could also choose to get up and go to work. those create vastly different outcomes. I have the power to make that choice.

There is free will because chaos. The order emerging from the forming structures is free will. It sounds and seem counterintuitive but give it a thought.

Free will does not imply randomness. You always have reasons for doing something. Being aware of those is free will. The rest is blather.

This isn't completely bad news. If choices are predicated emotional states, environment, diet, ect, you can have moments of clarity to change some things so your new situation is congruent to new ways

I think an important thing Rachel is emphasising is that we do have predefined options but choosing the best of them unlocks a new set of slightly better options. Kinda like an evolution of the mind.

I’ve never heard someone seriously argue that we make decisions without any historical influence or genetic influence. Is that idea from classical thinking?

Great book suggestion Robert Sapolsky: “Determined” Free will is an illusion based on the idea that our actions are determined by our biology, environment, and history, not by a free choice.

What I got from this is that we have free will, just not absolute free will. Like we have to obey the laws of nature, but we still get choices in some stuff.
