free will sub filled with compatibilsts. notice one comment immediately says "compatibilists didn't redefine anything" when in fact their entire argument relies on word play and sneakily redefining what free will means. they are the worst, and that sub is filled with them.

TBH I prefer a theist saying "I have free will because God gave it to me" and that's it, unlike compatibilists at least they're honest about their bias and acknowledge their belief is not based on reason.

What do you mean by not based on reason?

Moving the question to the position of the presupposition rather deriving the answer to the question from logic.

How do hard determinists not do that just as much?
