Sure, free will means just about anything to anyone, that's the problem. It needs pinning down before you can say very much about it. I very much doubt there is an agreed definition.

My point was you cannot choose to act "as if there are no choices" because that's a contradiction in terms. But again, you have to define what choice means first; choice can sometimes not mean an actual choice according to some lingo.

Fuck it, I'm going to erase everyone's free will.
