> Gamblers aren't free in any meaningful sense. That's what a compulsion is - the inability to do otherwise.

You're making a bad faith argument that all gamblers are slaves to the casino. The overwhelming majority of gamblers do not have a compulsion.

I'm not. You're exaggerating my argument to discredit it as bad faith.

I know you can strongman the argument instead. Why not get curious instead of shutting down discussion?

You exaggerated by implying all gamblers are out of control. If you only meant compulsive gamblers you could have said it.

Ok, substitute that instead.
