Addiction is the chemical overriding of the prioritization of choice.

Again: “compulsively” “helplessly”.
Look, if you’re not interested in admitting that words have meaning, you’re not arguing in good faith and I’m done with you. Have a good one.

Lol yes. Choice has meaning. Choice being dictated by compulsive behavior, or dominant chemical signaling is still choice. Like, your brain is doing it. Choice is not just “what color shirt will I wear today”, it is far deeper.

Choice is by definition not subject to compulsion. If you want to be a pedantic asshole at least have the intellectual integrity to be right first.

Compulsion is overridden choice!
I’m not suggesting addiction is done flippant thing, it’s a serious disease.
Quit throwing around insults then claiming I’m the one leaving integrity.
