"what are you trying to do"

Diogenes it's time... I'm going to reveal my secret.🤫

I'm actually a government trained psi-operative, I am here tasked with convincing full blooded, white American males that they don't have free will to take away their FREEDOM🦅🦅🦅

I'm sorry it has to be this way😔

are you using the word random to clarify anything?

As for this, I'll call on the definition that spgrk uses for random: "an outcome that could go otherwise given identical starting conditions". This is also what random/indeterministic means in quantum mechanics.

It makes sense, a truly random dice roll will yield different results even with a perfectly identical start to the roll (i don't actually think this is possible for a dice, just an example)

And so libertarian free will falls apart to me because the ability to do otherwise given an identical situation, would be a random selection.
