Reading up a bit more on "superdeterminism" I guess it explain a bit more why she made that video attempting to debunk free will Compatibilism as a cooky idea cooked up by new cooky philosophers (Not realising it's about as ancient as western philosophy itself).
For the "esthetics" of presenting superdeterminism as a "pure-common-sense" the no free will just sells it better.
EDIT: From memory maybe it was about "Hard Compatibilism" (free will requires determinism) which might not be explicitly so old, though I would say a natural consequence of most Compatibilist positions.
