There was a good podcast on this recently if you want a deep dive into the philosophy behind the statement. To give you a jumping off point, 'illusion' has a specific definition in the non-dualist domain so you want to make sure you aren't bringing your own from home. You also smuggle in an 'I' and a 'me' which should be breakpoint-inducing words to mention in a philosophical conversation. The people claiming free will is an illusion have rationally cancelled 'I' out of their statements. You've basically made the argument against free will in your comment but your definitions are loose so you parse it as an argument for free will. https://www.samharris.org/podcasts/waking-up-conversations/do-you-really-have-a-self https://www.samharris.org/podcasts/waking-up-conversations/d...
