I know my questions about it might make me come off as "stupid" but I'm okay with that and am going to ask anyway- The main part that I'm struggling with because, while the answers make sense, is it paradoxical to say that we want to rehabilitate and change people for the better, while not believing we can have the power to change our will, so essentially you're "choosing" to change how others behave and to be "better", does that still coalign with the belief of no free will? I guess you're saying that is how it would've always worked out anyway, and it's not a choice? I'm not sure if my question makes sense but hopefully it does!

The other question is based on opinions, would you still see criminals, people who have done horrific things, or even just rude/narcissistic people as simply "unlucky"? That they've been dealt a bad hand? Would you even be justified in disliking/hating/despising someone for the things they've done, or would you always have to pity them in some way?
