You are one of my best friend or companions during the journey of my literary criticism I navigate from last forty year and I thank you from your voice how you sound musically to the ideas you share from axis to axis

To pretend or assume, not admit, one’s will is free seems a more accurate description of the prerequisite in the process of choosing.

Instead of referring to "sick" souls, I use the word "wounded". People have wounded souls.

True that: actions speak louder than words. Bravo, pragmatists!

We don't need free will to act. That's some fatalistic bull. We can be pragmatic about not having free will and act regardless. The thing that holds us back is fatalism not lack of free will.

That's fairly obvious, he's not really saying we need free will, just that we need to believe it's real to ever act in a meaningful way. What's actually fatalistic is not believing in something and doing it anyway, it's a contradiction in terms and action.

Around 2:40 you claim none of the thinkers thought of themselves as pragmatists but that statement doesn't seem to be accurate to me from my readings of William James. He seemed to be very consciously describing himself as a Pragmatist and defining the Pragmatic approach to life, philosophy and other sciences (especially psychology).
