This bogus argument has been refuted numerous times--read Dennett's book "Freedom Evolves" for one sort of response. And whether people are "pretending" something is irrelevant (and ad hominem, and not even true). The plain fact remains that all evidence and logic supports physicalism, and even if you entertain dualistic ideas like those of David Chalmers they don't give you free will, they don't counter determinism.
