Are most people here epiphenomenalists? Physicalists?

That has nothing to do with free will. People don’t choose whether to follow their interests like they’re flipping a coin. They are influenced by many things including empathy and interests to make whatever decisions, but you could call is “free” will whatever decision they make even if it’s determined. I do think there is a need to fight economism, the thinking that simple things like class are purely responsible for certain decisions.

Other philosophy communities have only interpreted the world in various ways. The point, however, is to change it. [ x ]
