Whether on not free will is truly free or whether it is deterministic does not alter the fact of our perception. We perceive some actions and attribute a value to that action and ultimately a value to the person engaging in that action. At a deterministic level, it could promote survival in avoiding or mingling with that person or group.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
