SMH. Sabine has used her wealth and free-will to willfully remain bored and useless. Too many chattel, debt, and wage slaves from the working-class have already suffered to produce Sabine's necessities for her. Someone ought to show Sabine the necessities of life that need producing, then allow her to use her free-will to choose one, and, then, put her to work producing it.
Humans are different from animals, just as both humans and animals are different from the molecular-matter they are composed of. And If a person can't/doesn't/won't comprehend that, then it's easy for a person to justify the animalistic tendencies of themselves and those of other animalistic humans.
The denial of free-will, or belief in it, is an attempt at rationalizing and solidifying a perpetual get-out-of-jail free card for the worst and most animalistic humans -- which is par for the course when it comes to "Libertarians."
Carnivorous animals don't make free-will decisions in the same way that humans make free-will decisions, because carnivorous animals are different from humans.
A carnivorous animal has a different kind/level of free-will -- and maybe no free-will at all. They don't freely decide how to act in the same way that most humans freely decide to act.
And even though there are humans who use their free-will to consciously decide to act in an animalistic manner, there is only a low percentage of humans who don't have the capacity to make the conscious, free-will decision to act animalistic.
For example: Sharks and humans have different capacities to consciously make free-will decisions.
A shark doesn't use its free-will capacities to consciously decide to bite off Sabine's arm when it encounters her in the ocean in the same way that a human uses its free-will capacities to consciously decide NOT to kick Sabine in the teeth when they encounter her on the street. Because sharks and humans are different and, thus, so are their free-will capacities.
To be a human who believes that humans don't have free-will is to have the intellectual-depth of a shark or the knavish-intentions of a liar, cheater, thief, and/or murderer.
Free-will deniers, like Sabine, need greater levels of structure and discipline imposed upon them. They need to be monitored and mentored.
And it is up to the better, smarter people to use their humanistic free-will to protect vulnerable humans from Sabine, and people like Sabine, who use their animalistic free-will to bring harm to vulnerable humans while simultaneously claiming that they don't believe in/have free-will.
We already have labels for people who don't believe in, or claim not to have control over, their free-will decisions:
Sociopaths. Psychopaths.
F*kc these nutty-turd brains.
