That's what compatabilism is! Compatabilism is when free will is compatible with determinism and therefore whether we are determined or not is irrelevant to the fact we have free-will (if we define it that way).
Also, do you understand the libertarian definition of free will or not?
The whole point of "could have done otherwise" is that if you are ultimately entirely determined then you could not have done otherwise.... so I am talking about libertarian free will....... which is impossible.... because we could not have done otherwise.... (unless it's through indeterminism ( so it's down to chance) and therefore not our own determination (so it is once again down to chance (which is not free will)).
