Wrong vector
The usual pointless argument about free will vs determinism is looking at the wrong end of the timeline. There's absolutely no way to discuss what happened before. All arguments are perfectly circular.
Looking in the other direction, toward PURPOSE AND ACCOMPLISHMENT, is not circular at all. The FACTS are clear.
When you know your fate is permanent and innate, you have more real freedom.
Meritocracy is a vicious trap. When you think you can do anything, you end up wasting your life trying to do impossible shit. When you know you can do SOMETHING, and you know exactly what the SOMETHING is, you are free to do it.
You no longer feel obliged to improve your popularity or raise your status or please assholes who will never be pleased. You're free to do PURPOSEFUL THINGS that are WITHIN YOUR CAPABILITY.
