I said that freedom doesn't intrinsically exist. It can only exist in the sense of an agent being free from something. It can't exist by itself. That's what I meant by physical freedom.

I was arguing against Watson, saying his argument doesn't apply to "no free will" but only to determinism. Determinism implies no free will if you're an incompatabilist like me. But indeterminism doesn't imply that free will does exist. Free will is logically impossible either way as far as I'm concerned.
