Your ideas about how choosing works is a jumbled mess.
How? It's literally identical to the definition in the dictionary: people make decisions by taking account of various factors and reaching a conclusion. How is that a jumbled mess?
My ideas work without any logical contradictions.
No, they don't work at all. Unless you want to argue that decisions and choices made by people are NEVER a product of consideration, your argument is nonsensical.
Attaching a different logic to the way an opion is arrived at, than to how a fact is obtained, makes it sure they remain categorically distinct, and that the concepts can absolutely never crash into one another. You only use a logic of being forced, inevitably the concepts are going to crash into each other.
Again, this is just jumbled word salad. I have already explained the difference between subjectivity and fact, and the difference in the process of obtaining or processing them. What is so difficult for you to understand?
When decision is defined such as that a person can actually go left or right, then you deny it without any reasoning whatsoever. That is a pathology, not even being to able to reason about it.
More word salad. What am I denying? That people can go either right or left? Of course they can. Are you contesting that the way that people choose to go is a result of consideration? Do you honestly think the directions in which people walk is determined entirely at random with no matter of preference at all?
You can go left for the reason there is the bus stop, you can go right for the reason that there is the hoochie-coochie bar.
That is correct - especially where I work.
You have factors force the result, which is another thing entirely than influences. Factors forcing the result denies freedom, and denies agency.
Nothing "forces" me to make any particular choice other than my particular preference at that time based on an almost unlimited number of factors. Most of the time, my overriding desire is the desire to go home via the bus, so I go left. I COULD still go right, if I wished, but that would only be because I DECIDE to go right instead based on a different set of factors. In your mind, freedom cannot exist if you have reasons behind making a particular decision, which means essentially you are arguing that freedom can only exist if you make a decision at random, without any influence of any kind. That is obviously absurd.
So you deny that people can go left or right, arguing that there is no problem for choosing to be mechanistic.
No, people can go left or right. But their decision to go left or to go right is influenced by various factors. People don't do things without a reason for doing them (although I'm sure we're capable of it).
How many times have you reached an intersection, stopped, flipped a coin, and used the result to determine which way you should go? I'm guessing the answer will be "almost never" (then again, even THAT result is determined by the amount of influence you ascribe to the coin - i.e: even if you only went left because the coin came up heads, it was still your decision to go in a random direction determined by the toss of a coin in the first place).
That was not clear to me, because you denied choosing was essential to subjectivity, so then I thought you accepted true freedom, just not that true freedom was inherent in subjectivity.
To you, "true freedom" apparently means "not having reasons for doing anything". Sorry. I believe in freedom, but I don't believe human beings are capable of removing our own brains.
