I'm a Brainlet, can someone explain how there can be a "becoming" under a deterministic framework?

Why do you think determinism precludes events unfolding or developing over time?

An acorn is determined to grow into an oak, but it still becomes an oak.

I've been seeing more and more people equate determinism with Nietzsche. people just don't read anything or research anything do they.

becoming contrasts with being, these have nothing to do with inherent randomness, being is just a weird religious concept developed by plato that amounts to schizophrenia, being is platos theory of forms, look that up I dont want to misquote plato on what he thought, but its important to understand because its a hugely common error that people have (plato tries to give it some objective significance through his theory of forms) where they think theyre OBJECTIVELY right. literally, just because their opinions SEEM correct (aligns with an ideal form)

The answer:
There can't. The destination of things is something The Lord knows. Ain't in our nature to know our fate or see anything in such a comprehensive manner as only The Logos sees. So we can literally just self-actualize our little hearts out. Amen. Praise be.

are you 5? that's all inherent in nature, but you don't know the future, you are not Laplace's demon, so it doesn't matter that the world is deterministic, you wouldn't know if it was or not in fact, there can ever be proof that the world is deterministic or no deterministic, those are guesses about the future which nobody knows

Neechie wasn't a determinist, he just didn't believe in absolute free will.
