What's the best response to someone who believes in hard determinism but also uses this to deny responsibility for any immoral actions they commit?

It really is too bad the universe forced me never to talk to you again though.

There is a difference between free will and agency. I don’t think humans have free will, that requires the supernatural to be a thing and I don’t see evidence of that. Agency clearly does exist or else you would have to maintain that a billionaire and a slave have as much control over their life. Your friend is confusing the two.
