ROFLOL You can't be serious. If you don't have any choice about what you think then your thoughts could be anything at all for no reason in particular.

A computer has no choice, but its behavior is perfectly logical. You're conflating determined reason with epiphenomenalism. That doesn't make any sense why you would think that one would imply the other.
