I'm a hard determinist and so I view everything very much as a simulation.
Responsibility for everything follows the chain of events back to whatever started everything.
You can't even blame the creator of this "simulation" if such a creator exists because you would have to continuously follow the chain of events again with the creator.
I do like to theorize there are many chains of simulations that resemble a tree of branches (each being a simulation) but maybe with no starting point. Example we may make our own universe one day with computers and another will be created inside that simulation for infinity.
In any case, I like to add the understanding of infinity to these ideas of philosophy. Knowing we're all just the result of external forces exerted upon us. One can realize that we likely have lived our same life countless times. Who knows if something in the universe can interfere like hidden local variables that resemble quantum mechanics for us and make our lives slightly different in the next go. Worsening or improving our fate as the forces continuously repeat for infinity.
I find the idea "the chain of forces that made our life, will never repeat ever again in our universe" tremendously naive.
Whoever disagrees with what I wrote, please reply with your thoughts. I very much stay sane when it comes to death with this ideology. Everything else seems illogical.
