“Revolution in Thought: A new look at determinism and free will"

[DBT]

How do you change human nature? How are we to revolutionize our wants and needs, food, shelter, meaning, how we make a living, business, class, profit. and countless other drivers? We come together in a crisis, showing care and generosity, but what about here and now?

We don’t change human nature. We use the knowledge of our nature (that man’s will is not free) by extending the corollary of no blame to the environment, which causes a change in human conduct.

How does this 'no blame' principle alter human behaviour? People still need food, clothing, shelter, earn a living, etc....where our economic system/s and society are the sum total of our thought and activity.

The problem is that Compatibilists are unimpressed. They fail to follow him where he shows how “no blame” doesn’t decrease responsibility, it increases it. They don’t want to hear it. Very very unfortunate!
