I’m a hard determinist, so I think no, free will is not possible. I think the illusion of free will comes from having self-awareness. Still, even as a hard determinist, when I go about my day, making “my choices”, I believe I am consciously deciding, I would even go as far as to say that I have a strong internal locus of control. It’s only when I stop to think about it, that I always end up deciding that nothing I’ve done is the result of pure free will, and rather it’s very much determined by things way beyond my control.
