I can't really make sense of FW in the OMG-we're-all-robots sense. So none of that for me, thanks.
When it comes to being who you are, you're neither willing or unwilling, you just are. Your first two sentences I couldn't make any sense of, so please elaborate.
It does sound to me like you don't really care about the truth in this case, just about your preconceived notions and preferences. So, yeah, you're welcome.
