Reply to comment by Confident-Broccoli-5 in Compatibilism is supported by deep intuitions about responsibility and control. It can also feel "obviously" wrong and absurd. Slavoj Žižek's commentary can help us navigate the intuitive standoff. by matthewharlow

Sure it is, by having to make an extra term, implies it needed to be clarified.

Compatibilism!

To be honest I'm not sure what you're trying to argue, compatibilism just says free will is compatible with determinism, that is we can still act freely, make decisions etc regardless if the universe is deterministic. It's not clear to me what you mean by "extra term."

Well okay, can anyone argue a sound incompatibalist viewpoint? That's as best as I can explain my perspective.

I can't, hence compatibilism.
