I have somewhat of a general question. What exactly is Compatibalism? As far as I understand, a way of reconciling the contradiction between free will and determinism. One way of describing it, as far as I understand, is this: "Free will is to be understood only as freedom from coercion, and anything further is an illusion." But I don't really understand what "freedom from coercion" means here. This quote is taken from wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_free_will
