Alright, I’ll guess your choice okay?

pick 1 or 2,

WAIT what about 3 and 4 and 5?

you think you have a choice but it’s only……

within a range of acceptable answers

education, cultures, parental upbringings, you are a prisoner (of them)

and it’s almost impossible for you to shake it

There are too many invisible shackles out there

for example, what should I wear today

a sportswear? a suit?

Buttttt how about a dinosaur outfit?

your mind has already a range of acceptable answers

and eliminated all those impossible or ridiculous answers for you

so you don’t actually have “free will” (your freest of will is banned by your thought process)

So…… in that case, are you actually free?

How about your opinions?

equality of opportunities? or the equality of outcomes (would you pick)?

you (ONLY) want to pick one of that,

but not anything outside of that
