Many people say how "If determinism is true... then the future's inevitable". "If determinism is true you can't change the future".
But as Dan Dennett says "If determinism is false you can't change the future." Determined or undetermined, the future's inevitable.
The future is inevitable whether determinism is true or untrue... because the future is what is going to happen, and what is going to happen is going to happen by definition, of course that's unavoidable, inevitable - the future's the future, determined or not, it's inevitable.
Just thought I'd throw that in there lol.
