What does belief in fatalism or belief in free will have to do with my comment? You may benefit greatly from re-reading the post to which you are replying to verify that key words and tricky phrases that appear in your reply are relevant... as opposed to being some fabrication of your own misunderstanding. Here... I'll incorporate your comment about beliefs into my previous comment, and use easy to understand sentences.
Someone who believes in fatalism will act the same whether they have free will or not... because they have no way of distinguishing if they have free will or not from their perspective.

Someone who believes in fatalism will probably act differently than someone who believes in free will... but this tells us nothing about whether or not free will exists.
