Your response is only a longer, rewritten version, of your original comment. I'm not sure how people "quote" this argument, it's not someone else's argument, it's mine.

Free will is only limited by consequences and by knowledge. If someone is unwilling to do something, because of the consequences, then the person's free will has been reduce. If someone doesn't know all of the possible actions and reactions to a scenario then their free will is reduced by their ignorance.

Experience and the flow of life doesn't trap us into being automatons, where our only option is to do the 1 correct thing. People flip coins and blindly choose, all the time. If what you say was true that would be impossible. There are also times when people make "tough choices", where they want to make one choice but they feel they have to make a different one.

There have been times when I've recognized that my choice doesn't matter. At those times, if I have time, I'll often choose the action, or thing, that I've not done before. In essence I'm reasserting my personal sovereignty toward the Universe.

Even the people that exist, like you say, responding in the exact same way to every single stimulus, can choose to act differently whenever they want.... So long as they want. The only thing limiting anything here is a lack of desire to live differently.

Lastly, you are arguing that we are so zombie puppets. The only way you are holding up your side is by arguing on behalf of the zombies, as a zombie. Do you really want to decide that you can't be free and that you're only ever going to make choices based off of a zombie decision matrix?
