You are not ur decisions, you are the awareness of them. How ever you perceive your decisions IS you

Intentional Everything! :
It’s interesting that because we cannot fully comprehend exactly how something works at this moment in time.. then the human tendency is to say it’s impossible and invent something that is even less likely, but at least we have words to describe it and teach it in schools. Free will is incredibly complicated for us to comprehend at this moment in time. It doesn’t mean that it does not exist. It’s like a scientist never physically seeing a physical being that could be defined as the creator or a God. So because he hasn’t seen God and because God has not spoken with him directly then…he must not exist and let’s invent a concept that will absolve us of any accountability and moral obligations. We will call it evolution..

i’m a functional determinist without even knowing. and look if we don’t actually 100% know that our brain is coded without any quantum randomness, saying that we could 1000000% predict what u r going to THINK next with a complete simulator then THEN u could start to worry ab justice, meanwhileeee. we don’t know exactly, and just because we STILL DONT COMPLETELY KNOW our brains like AT ALL, then as a society it would be unfuctional to work around the idea of determinism

Even if there is no free will, and we are destined to face a world that we do not choose as a passive viewer of our actions, what's the alternative? There's no way off this ride. We can still size joy whenever possible. If everything is meaningless, then we have the wonderful ability to assign our own meaning to what matters to us.

Ateleviras :
Determinism is false. Determinism only looks to be the case non-phenomenologically. It is a reification error. Determinism isn’t necessary for cause and effect to still occur. The present is all there is and it is fluxing. What we call “past” and “future” are just aspects of the fluxing present. An actually existing non-present past would necessarily be beyond a subject’s epistemic horizon which is always just the now, and anything else is straightforwardly false.

Neuroscientist here: think of your unconscious actions like listening outside a football stadium. You hear the touchdown from the crowd, not from seeing it. But you know the home team wanted to score

Alexander :
I've thought about this for many years. atp my understanding is that it is true.. but there is a paradox with it, that nothing is determined. it's both determined and done but also we influence it. it's a paradox only when you assume time is linear, but cause and effect echoes forward and backward

Tik tok philosophy makes me lose my mind. Every time I open up one of these comment sections I start to go insane. You people are so far gone

We exist in the present where we can make any choice. I’m choosing to write this to you now, I could’ve not. It is written into the chain of cause and effect now, but did I not choose to write? Determinism is an illusion in my eyes. Free will exists perpetually while determinism is the illusion of looking backward.

🎸 :
Hear me out; Determinism says that every thought, choice, and actions has a consequence — It's a part of nature, though. Every actions have consequences, the consequences are laid out, already there — Think abt it. Like, for ex: Caveman wants to eat a tiger cuz its the only animal he can see. He chooses not to due to the fact that he's scared. He's hungry, stomach ache, weakness of body. On the other hand, He chooses to. Either he gets bitten or he eats the tiger instead. The consequences are laid out already — perchance, this is why we evolve to 'think'?

KotaMcG03 :
Maybe fast moving, spur of the moment decisions are made before we realize we’ve made them, but I fail to see how that would apply to big decisions that we mull over for large portions of time.

imagine you're in a space ship headed towards a distant planet. it costs very little energy to look around and find a new destination, but turning the ship towards that goal and actually making progress takes a lot of energy. (it helps if you can get a "gravity assist" from some environmental changes or life changing events.)

Garrison :
we r products of our condition, that being said if we can change the condition then we can change the product. sometimes the condition is our mind or the people we hang around. It gets tricky when considering that only certain conditions (physical) can produce this way of thinking. For example, the less fortunate might pity themselves in a loop due to poverty and being uneducated. so I really believe it’s important to create a human condition which encourages action and intentional thinking that may then have a domino effect which changes the conditions of other people’s lives.

Remember that the concept of the self was only invented in the 1300s. Before that, even allegorical plays were difficult for people to understand due to the abstract nature of the concepts presented

depends on how you define free will

Determinism is implied by the causality that’s explored in Berserk. One of the major themes of the story

maybe it’s not so much “can you take credit for your own success” as it is “if you act in a way that betters the world, you can take credit for the success of the future”

Are u like read up on philosophy or do u just practice it because I always still see people talk abt determinism when I’ve found that ppl caught up with philosophy don’t even spend their time with determinism anymore

True Story :
Free will is just your ability to control your own caprice. It’s not your ability to defy nature or anything like that. Free will is part of nature and your ability to experience free will itself is predetermined or “genetic” (in a way)

NLE☆ :
I think this is what forces the mind to create constructs like fate and God,because it’s a helpless situation to not be in control of your decisions especially when they’ve already been made on your behalf before you realize it,the human mind fears control and desperately tries to fight it,thereby placing control into a higher explainable entity,which is paradoxical considering that the mind is responsible for the control of itself,even without realizing it

I am a determinist and it is so liberating to just not to worried about if something is going to go wrong because you can’t change that and the result has already happened in the future so there’s no need to worry about it has helped me with anxiety and my nervous colitis
