Not only does nothing exist, but everything exists alongside nothing.

>Babby's first existential thought.

Get on my level. I operate on the assumption that we inhabit in a dimension that is constantly pulling our consciousness into a relativistic stupor and only through truly conscious acts (made unconsciously) we can transcend and truly see things as they 'are'.

Your thoughts can be quantitatively predicted before you are conscious of them. Neuroscientists have been doing experiments on this for years. The concept of "free will" is largely a red herring that has long been made irrelevant by our understanding of the 'deterministic' routes of how genes active and interact/adapt to environment.
Unfortunately this old hackneyed concept of "Free Will" mostly remains are a rather cynical undertone in bullshit idealism such as "The American Dream" and other such things which have been invented by industry and expanded on by the corporate realm as an effective means to keep the great unwashed distracted and happily running on the mouse wheel of society, keeping the lifestyles going for those rather few numbers of people/families who more or less control the modern world.

Free will as the concept stands cannot be taken seriously in a world wherein cheap and readily available drugs such as alcohol can be used to entirely undermine the volition of an individual.

You're a cunt, could've you predicted that?
But seriously tho, that kinda sounds like bs, life has so much random viables in it you can't say we dont have a free will,

>But seriously tho, that kinda sounds like bs
Look it up.
The experiments exists.
The data exists.
The research exists.
>life has so much random viables in it you can't say we dont have a free will,
This is an argument from ignorance. You are no different than the religious person claiming that life cannot possibly have evolved via natural selection. Sadly the common folk seem to lag a few hundred years behind contemporary scientific research, as per the norm.

If you claim to have free will, I'll ask you to explain how you make a decision.

If you can answer this question by telling me a decision making procedure/algorithm then your decision was deterministic and hence not free.

If you cannot explain how you made a decision, then you obviously had no control over it.

Does this disprove free will? I'm sure it does.

You don't have control over randomness either.

That's like saying if you don't know how a car works you're not really driving it.
>>
>>568640
A decision is made by the process of having an impulse or an emotion that is rationalized in the logic center of your brain. "Control" is a misnomer word when it's as simple as an electron following the path of least resistance through your neural pathways.

You either like something or you don't. Everything else is just tolerance and tact.
>>
>>568652
That's why you need a driver license before operating a car. So you know how a car works.

I'd consider myself a realist, alright? But in philosophical terms I'm what's called a pessimist... I think human consciousness is a tragic misstep in evolution. We became too self-aware. Nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself - we are creatures that should not exist by natural law... We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self, that accretion of sensory experience and feelings, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when in fact everybody's nobody... I think the honorable thing for our species to do is to deny our programming. Stop reproducing, walk hand in hand into extinction - one last midnight, brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal.
