i say choice- mechanism as shortform for the process by which i make choices.
And no, it was not entirely free anymore, much as Jeffrey says. the word "compelled" comes close.
i'm not here to argue that point.
nor do i see myself as any kind of victim.
dwtbd, sure, the choice "existed".Mine was not freely made, not the way i make other choices.
And i repeat i am not here to argue the point.
